Love the subtle shades of color here Mary. Isn't it amazing lately, the weather that is. Some rain and a lot of sunshine. I've even started spraying the weeds with round-up. They think Spring is already here. #11260006

Thanks for stopping by, Rey. The "winter" weather IS really crazy of late. The rain was a welcome change, and it made my plants very happy, but a bit confused.I have two different kinds of lily; one is blooming right now (as opposed to the usual December), and this week I discovered the "starter" foliage for one of my other lilies --- which don't usually bloom until May. Wild and crazy! Sorry you're getting out the Round-up so soon. I'm sure we'll be doing that ourselves in the very near future. #11260085
