Surprise

  Sunny and I made the trek to the little creek again this week. It's such a nice spot, that I intend to go there often. This time there was a surprise waiting for us. Tiger1   TigerLilies. Oh my! They weren't out at all last week. The above one is almost at the end of its blooming. This one had just opened up. Tiger2   Notice how different the …. oh dear… stamens? …. you know, the pollen thingys …. look when they first come out. I actually looked up pistils and stamens and am still a little confused. I'm pretty sure I'm gonna miss that question. It's like a 6th grade science test! All I know is they take my breath away…. Tiger3   Tiger4   While we were crashing around in the underbrush looking at them, I also found these beauties... Heartleaves I do not know what they are. I'm going to have to ask S. She knows everything botanical. I just take the pictures. lime-wild

My grandmother had these in her yard and when I see them I always think of her. They are so lovely.
