It's a lot of fun. I use the one I did for an archive of what is out there. It's never complete, as I always seem to forget a few out there, but over time it will be complete. It's a great thing to work on in the doldrums of winter too.

I will explore other features of Smilebox.
As an " A " type I need to find projects that take a long time.
I also have 3 paintings I want to do but have to dole out the projects carefully so I get to May without too much time on my hands.

Well I see there is still some room on the back door landing...

I did just build a 10x6ft raised bed for lilies. Most of the bulbs I had pics of in the species bulb thread went in there.

And just so you know you're not alone, Anthony: this is what my patio/deck has looked like for many years now. I'm just a plantaholic in general. There is always some things flowering, somewhere in there. Blooming in the pic is:
Draba ridgida
Iris suaveolens
Viola pedatifida
Anaphalis alpicola
Cerastium alpinum

In my defense, about 2-300 of these each year are earmarked for donation to our Rock Garden Society plant sale. But I just keep growing more!

Anthony, I do think you qualify to be a lily freak!

How good of you Rick, to grow so many plants to contribute to your society!

I'm catching up.

Jo Ann, that was a most wonderful slideshow, and music to watch it by. I loved the color combinations! It was just the colors and blooms I needed to see on a cold, grey, windy day!

Anthony and Rick, WOW, you both have my respect!
And I wah wahed because I didn't find places to transplant my few lilies to this summer.

I am looking forward to blooms!
