Just stumbled across this thread tonight. I was in a "lily mood" and boy, did I come to the right place! I was sighing over all sorts of them! The idea of composting any of them just makes me teary-eyed. I can't imagine working in the midst of that much beauty every day. I suppose you might eventually become immune to it, but I think I'll just keep my sense of wonder, thank you very much!
Anyway, thanks for all the lovely pictures! We just got our first snow today (ugh!) and this shot of summer was just what I needed to cheer me up.
