Queen of the Prairie

A couple years ago, we purchased a Queen of the Prairie at a plant sale held by the local garden club. It has become a fave in our July garden. It has very delicate pink blooms that sway in the summer breezes...it is easy to understand why it is a "Queen".

Lilies of July

Double Yellow Lily

Satisfaction Tree Lily---first Year....

Stargazer Lily

July has been a quick month. I have not been a very consistent blogger this month. We have been spending a lot of time outdoors on the deck and in the gardens. We have had some much needed rain this week and are having much lower temperatures than usual for July.

The highlight of our garden this month has been the lilies ...beautiful blooms all month. I wish we had smell-a-blog so you could share in the fragrance of the stargazer lilies. I brought some inside several days ago and the house is filled with the lovely fragrance.
