From a gift package of bulbs sent to me in 2009, this one is named Leslie Woodriff. It grows tall, and needs staking. The flowers face downwards and have a wonderful, heady perfume. These photos taken moments ago ....
Looks a lot like the 'Star Gazer Lily' I used to have except it faces down rather than up...I can almost smell the delicate and heddy flower! Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Wonderful Carole...TFS! Jan
That's right - rub it in!! I am sitting here with snow up to my armpits, and a cloudy sky, and you are showing my your gorgeous lilies and a blue sky!!! Ah, well... They are gorgeous lilies, and the clouds will go away, sooner or later... Happy New Year!!
thanks for visiting Snap Happy Birding, and for leaving a comment; I can still see them. Now both my blogs are resting in idle mode. It was time to give other things priority, even though I miss my regular blogging and the feedback that came my way over the years. Take care.

ReplyDeleteThey are beautiful. They do have the Stargazer lily colouring. Lovely.

Gorgeous, they look a bit like a Stargazer Lily, do they smell as pretty as they look?
ReplyDeleteWonderful looking lilies! Mind the pollen - I think it stains anything it touches!

Fresh from the garden ... I can almost smell the fragrance from here. Beautifully captured Carole.

Those lillies are beatiful. A most unusual colour.

These are so beautiful to look at Carole, but I couldn't be in a room with them.
ReplyDeleteWhat fantastic blooms!
