Day Lilies - - gifts from friends

There is a very long season of day lilies blooming here in the gardens.  It started in June and now here in August many are still blooming.  Last month on July 28th, I posted some of the many day lilies that were hybridized by me here at the Gardens at Waters East.  I have many more of those to share in the days ahead.

 

Today I want to post a few of the day lilies that were blooming two days ago on my walk through the gardens.  The lilies posted here today were gifts to me from some of my close friends.

 

Do enjoy.

There are loads more of these you will see in the days ahead.

Walk to the Union this week - along the Lakeshore Nature Preserve

Took a long walk this week to the Union along the Lakeshore Nature Preserve.  Always so many interesting plants, bugs, birds, and flowers.  Great way to get in a little exercise while enjoying - - - 

 

 

Mother Earth!

Every time I walk along the path, I see this tree.

Looks like a baby tree growing out of a branch!
