The first day lily bloomed today. I picked it as my Mother would have, just the blossom so that the other buds could be left on the stem to bloom. My desire is usually to pick the stem to have more height to relate to a vase. My work in this solstice project is to see the flower, pick the container,and click the photo which turns the gears of the imagination.
The orange lilly against the grey is so striking and your commentary for each one even more exquisite
