You don't suppose your mailman is playing tricks on you, do ya? No joke, mine did it several times. Then he'd come around when it was blooming and say: " Oh, that's a pretty one, where did you get that one?" It wasn't just limited to lilies. It was Glads, Dahlias, Iris as well, anything he could bury on the sneak.. He's retired and moved now, but it was a fun game for many a year. He knew every lily company name and box that came, calling me ahead of time to alert me " We've got a box to open" just to be sure I'd be around.. He enjoyed it, opening the boxes as much as I did. But as they say, nothing that good lasts forever.
