Thanks for the quick reply. I realized you id them in a previous thread. I love lily's and have tried to mix the different types and colors all through my gardens. I lost some id's and have been trying to figure out what they are. Pretty sure i have some Lavon's. I've been in my current house for 5 years and the gardens are starting to look good. Sadly the weeds are looking better.

One of my many mistakes was planning [or lack of it]. I went for flowers i liked rather than anchoring areas with larger shrubs first than filling in. Spacing evergreens with deciduous wasn't considered. Then taking down a few big sick trees threw off the scale. Funny i never think in terms of now regarding the garden it's always about next season. Despite mistakes i'm getting there.

In 2019 I moved my vegetable garden and started converting the old garden space into a flower garden. Ditching practicality for pretty. If it wasn't for the extreme heat and drought it would have probably looked nicer this year. There is always next year! I hope mine comes together as well as yours has. Thanks for sharing your pics
