three petals and counting

This and That

Cee’s Challenge for the week: flowers with three petals. This Daylily from last season really has the requisite six petals, but she posed as a trio for the occasion. I can’t wait for Daylily Season 2022. I saved seeds last fall from all of the twelve (or so) plants that I have. We’ll see what develops.

I searched my photo archives looking for a three-petal flower. I have thousands of images, and didn’t turn up a three-petal specimen for this post.

ever wonder what it’s like inside a daylily bud? (me neither, until now…)

  • A scape getting a head start on the world of Daylilies.
  • These guys are fast: I didn’t even see them yesterday.
  • Five scapes vying for position.
  • Here’s the package that presents the Lilies.

I believe we had six Daylilies several years ago when we bought the first plants. Each is a different color and has its own features. Up until recently I knew completely nothing about Daylilies, now I know a few things, but I am not yet comfortable in discussing the subject. Stay tuned and we will see where this new interest goes.
