Just as Pretty as Gretchen's

I know I don't post nearly enough, but here is a picture of my lilies of the valley picked just today from my back yard:




They smell even prettier than they look! I wasn't sure if any would bloom this year, because there are an awful lot of weeds growing in the patch, including a viney sort of flower that is choking the life from almost everything else in there. I only have half the patch of lilies I used to, but today I realized that they had spread to the other side of my back door, by my irises (which haven't bloomed yet). I even had enough to pick another bunch to put down by the pc so I can appreciate them from down here : )


Eat your heart out Gretchen!

Would you believe Chuck is allergic to them??? I had no idea, but he says they make him sneeze! Poor guy!
