The Tigers are Back



The tiger lilies are back, albeit a full month after those in the Hanging Gardens of Mushalon. The Great Plotnik bought a few tiger lily bulbs at least a dozen years ago, and kept them in a tub on the deck for ten of those years. By then they had multiplied many times, so he unpotted and transplanted them into tubs in the garden next to the lavender.



You really have to hand it to nature for coming up with a flower that looks like this. Look at those stamens -- don't they look like jellyfish?



On the other hand, it's Monday morning. Plottie really has to deal with this desk this morning.

First - Those are fantastic flowers! Nice job (TGP = The Greenthumb Plotnik).

Second - That's a messy desk? I had no idea you were such a neat-freak. It has been ages since my desk looked as clean as that.

Good thing it's a small desk.
