My gorgeous lilies

My lilies have been unusually gorgeous this year so I thought I'd share, :)
Sorry about the size but they are better seen in the pic mode instead of the thumbnail. The last two are my very favorites and make great wallpapers. :love:

ditto! Awesome!

Thank you all. I'm glad you enjoyed them! :D

They must have been even prettier than I thought. last night someone came into the yard and cut three stalks of them down and ran off with them. I do wish they had asked. I would gladly have shared. It just irks me that people feel free to just take things any more! :(

They are magnificent! I don't think I have ever seen such pretty ones outside a bulb catalogue! Do you know what type they are?

I'm so sorry that someone felt free to take them. :(

I don't know the right name. Around here they are called surprise lilies or naked ladies! :) The leaves come up in the spring then die down. The flowers come up later in the summer; like : surprise here we are!!! :D

I didn't know there were lily varieties that did that, that is flower and throw up leaves at different times. Well they are gorgeous anyway! Thanks for letting us see them. :D

Amazing flowers and photos. I can only imagine how fragrant those lovely flowers are. I LOOOOOOVE going past the floral dept. in our grocery store, the lilies are so fragrant that the smell just consumes me. I always take deep breaths in and take in the lilly aroma. Thanks for sharing the photos...I only wish I could smell them also :)

My question precisely! Do they smell as wonderful as they look?
