WHITE LILY FAN
yes I am a big fan of white lilies...
Lilium longiflorum.
This plant is native to Japan and the Ryūkyū Islands. It is a stem rooting lily, growing up to 1 m high and bears a number of trumpet shaped, white, very fragrant, and outward facing flowers.
We have a family of friends that we visit every year, they breed horses, wonderful people.
They have now made it a tradition that each year, on the day of our return back home, the end of our visit/holidays, they present me with a bunch of freshly-cut Lilies (one of the sons helps on a farm where they grow them for the bulbs!).
It is a bouquet that I can barely hold my arms around, I had to buy a BIG vase and even now, they are split. Our house is filled whit the fragrance.
Although I do have a lot of work, I just HAD to take time out to eternalize them...
What wonderful friends we have all over!
Thanx for your time and comments, M, (*_*)
