Lilium henryi, sometimes called tiger lily or Henry's lily, is a native lily of the mountains of central China (Provinces of Guizhou, Hubei, Jiangxi). The flowers are orange, spotted black, and unscented. The petals are recurving (bent backwards).
Typically it grows to about 1.5 m high in the wild, but vigorous cultivated plants can reach up to 2.5 m. It is likely to bend towards the light, and hence may need staking. It is useful as a garden ornamental plant for its long lasting flowers, its textured petals, and it is more tolerant than most lilies of lime in the soil. Henry's lily is easy to propagate from bulb scales.
💥It was introduced into cultivation in Europe by a British-born Irish plantsman and sinologist Augustine Henry (2 July 1857 – 23 March 1930) and was named after him.
Family fun after overnight snow. About 2 inches of snow fell overnight. It is rare event in Bath and not lasting long. So everyone rushed out to enjoy it. Primrose Hill, Bath, BANES, England UK.
Osteospermum Serenity Red.
Easy to grow, flowers until the first frosts and may even survive a mild winter.
This series of osteospermum are much famed for flowering well in the UK and tolerant of cooler conditions and cloudy days. Plants have a naturally bushy and branching habit, so no pinching necessary, and they are quick to flower lasting well into the autumn. Wonderful for container planting and easy to grow and manage.
Grow in rich, well drained potting compost and in a bright and sunny position.

Well today's "explored shots" on Flickr was dominated by flowers - so I thought I would post one.
Phalaenopsis (moth orchids) grow well in centrally heated rooms and have long-lasting flowers produced all year round.

Love Dahlia's especially this rich purple one I found on a walk. Enjoy Macro's added some texture for fun.
So how are you? I am continuing to stay away from the public & travels ~ Covid-19 virus cases are still growing here in Washington State ~ with mass amounts of protesters we may see a second wave, we are praying for peace..
Stay well and safe Flickr friends.
Happy Macro Monday! :-))) Long Lasting Balloon! :-)))
Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! xo💜💜
On a mental level, kindness and compassion give rise to lasting joy.

Azaleas bloom in the spring, their flowers often lasting several weeks. Azaleas are native to several continents including Asia, Europe and North America. They are planted abundantly as ornamentals in the southeastern US, southern Asia, and parts of southwest Europe.
A montage of the various types of twisty branch woods in the Fitzroy Gardens with the wooden steering wheel of a HMAS Franklin from the Maritime Museum in St Helens. Wood is a versatile material for working with to build all sorts of things. It comes with wonderful grain, shape and colours. Tasmanian Huon Pine is long lasting and will weather all sorts of ingredients. Plus it is sustainable and should be planted in greater numbers. HMMM :))
Our guides, from Guilin Photography Tours, setup an opportunity to go into some peoples homes on our first day.
It's one thing to be walking around an ancient village but something else entirely to be invited into a home and photograph people within their surroundings.
This lady, to me, was absolutely beautiful both in her appearance and in spirit. So was so welcoming when we came in and was so willing to be a subject for our cameras.
This is one of my favourite moments from the trip and one of my favourite shots from the couple of weeks that I was in China.

Wikipedia: Jacaranda mimosifolia is a sub-tropical tree native to south-central South America that has been widely planted elsewhere because of its attractive and long-lasting violet-colored flowers. In scientific usage, the name "jacaranda" refers to the genus Jacaranda, which has many other members, but in horticultural and everyday usage, it nearly always means the blue jacaranda.

The Gretna starling display
The birds congregate at sunset, first in small groups and then in larger clusters, to form a mass of over one million birds creating elaborate shapes and patterns in the sky. Raptors such as sparrowhawks and peregrine falcons make an appearance to try and pick off a bird for supper. After an aerobatic display lasting for about 20 minutes, the starlings move towards a conifer plantation where they roost for the night.
All that's left of this little Aquilegia canadensis (wild red Columbine) is this fabulous seed head. :)
Happy Truck Thursday!
This beauty was found in Murdo, SD as I tried t figure out the wording it says Spray Rush which is probably due to closeness of Mount Rushmore. An old Dodge truck.
Redlove® boasts long-lasting and unusual deep pink blossom, and unique fruit that is dark red, both outside and inside, revealing a beautiful pattern when you slice through it. The juicy, fragrant flesh has a texture that can be likened to a Cox apple, but with an extra range of subtle cherry fruit flavours. A delicious eater, it is also ideal for cooking (it retains its red colour). Try it in fruit salads (it doesn't turn brown), pies, puddings and tarts. Or simply enjoy a glass of mouth-watering freshly squeezed juice!

The death of any loved parent is an incalculable lasting blow because no-one ever loves you like that again... HATE
Lagerstroemia commonly known as crape myrtle (incorrectly or less commonly spelled crepe myrtle, and often referred to in technical literature as crapemyrtle), is a genus of around 50 species of deciduous and evergreen trees and shrubs native to the Indian subcontinent, southeast Asia, northern Australia, and parts of Oceania, cultivated in warmer climates around the world. It is a member of the family Lythraceae, which are also known as the loosestrife family. Crape myrtles are chiefly known for their colorful and long-lasting flowers which occur in summer. Most species of Lagerstroemia have sinewy, fluted stems and branches with a mottled appearance that arises from having bark that sheds throughout the year. Flowers are borne in summer and autumn in panicles of crinkled flowers with a crepe-like texture. Colors vary from deep purple to red to white, with almost every shade in between. 8793

Most commonly known as the “friendship flower,” the yellow rose holds significance for a long-lasting friendship. While yellow roses are a perfect gift to symbolize your strong platonic connection, it is not suggested to give them to someone you are romantically interested in.

One might think this photo is edited. Not so, not the moon, but the sun through a morning fog that was lifting. Strange to be able to view the sun with the naked eye A great moment lasting only a few minutes. Not a beautiful morning sunrise, but an interesting one.
Thanks for the visit!!
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
This capture is of friends of mine who came to my daughter's wedding. We had my daughter's reception in my studio and they asked for a photo to be taken in front of my abstract collage "The Wedding". Happily, theirs is a continuing romance, just look at their happy faces!
