Consider The Lilies

Oriental Lilies enhance the summer gardens with beauty and fragrance. This banner is a collage of some of my favorites including the species Regal lily.

I can't imagine a garden without a few lilies. There are so many to choose from, and they are relatively easy to grow if given proper care. They are very rewarding in the summer landscape. I have used some of mine to make this collage. From Left are Casa Blanca, Indiana, La Reve, Leslie Woodriff, Regal Lily, Lilium Speciosum (AKA Rose Red Lily of Japan) and Tiger Rose a hybrid Oriental.

Here are are some of my "super-stars" in the garden.

A most pleasing arrangement and choices of the different flowers with their differing flower orientations, and colors. There is some artistry going on here, besides good photography. Thumbs up
