DAY LILY FESTIVAL! Picture heavy 50+

[Freedom]

Lots of folks were wondering about this tree, and why it was painted. It is one of the few items in the grounds with no green name tag next to it. I just HAD to ask! Well, it was moved last Autumn, didn't survive, and they didn't have time to remove it before the Festival. So, they spray painted it glitter blue and made a conversation piece. It worked! It will be removed on Thursday.





Mr. Big is the resident cat. He showed up over 8 yers ago (no one could really remember when), and the owner (the partner who doesn't own Fletch) took him in. Yes, he HAS been neutered and gets his shots. He sleeps on his owner's bed. He also greets everyone who visits "HIS" nursery. He is NEVER fed! He finds what he needs in the fields, and is obviously a clever hunter!









They have several places with free Water, Lemonade or Ice Tea. You really need it as you wander through the fields. They also have vendors come in and serve hot dogs, fruit salad, and few other items.




One more set, next post.

These pictures are fantastic Sandie!! I'm a daylily fanatic. I have about 100 in my yard that still bloomed this year without my help. Some of the hybrids are spectacular!! Love the non plant pics too

This has to be one of the most colorful threads to date. I loved every single photo. Thanks for sharing. I am a garden freak and appreciate the time and energy it took to get such great shots of the flowers and pets!

Thanks so much.

BEAUTIFUL!!!

I only ever saw the yellow and orange variety. I want some of the pink ones. And the rosey ones. And the fushia ones. And while we're at it, some of the burgundy ones.

I was looking at the gorgeous flowers when I came across Mr. Big. What struck me is the statement....He is never fed....

So many times we hear that the only reason cats "love" their people is because that is who feeds them.

Mr. Big is proof that it is much, much more than that...

Thank you Mr. Big...
