Mark and I did quite a bit of clean-up in the garden this weekend. Lots of branches to cut back, lots of spent plants & flowers, lots of weeds. These white lilies had fallen over and were almost touching the ground so I whacked them all back. Which resulted in a great pitcher of white lilies for the back porch. These are a cross between asiatic and oriental, so they don't have the overpowering smell of the orientals. But still, fifty blooms or so would be a little much inside.
Planting bulbs in the fall isn't one of my favorite garden chores. But this pitcher had me wondering where I put the bulb catalog. Maybe digging just a few holes wouldn't be too much trouble. . .
