Yellow with Elegance

Lily in Summer in Today's Flowers



and My Little  MellowYellowBadge


I tried searching the name of this particular variety of Lily. This attractive floral arrangement was displayed in Blacktown's X-Ray Office. With staff permission, I was allowed to take the picture.

In my Gardener's Encyclopedia book by Reader's Digest (1992 2nd reprint edition) the closest I can compare this with is Lily Golden Clarion Hybrids.

In Lily Gallery (http://www.s-wgardens.com/Catalog/lilygallery.php), it is closest to the American Way hybrid.

Yet, in another source (http://www.liliumbreeding.nl/home.html)nothing seems to be close to this kind.

Cheers!

Imported Today's Flowers from Karaka Tree Motel


My 11th Entry

Thank you Luis Santilli Jr for creating Today's Flowers for us and your Team! Thank You Very Much!!!


To all the gardeners, horticulturists, and flower enthusiasts let's give Today's Flowers a big Hurray! It's time to visit Today's Flowers
and smell those sweet scented delights. TF Team on Board: Santilli - Denise - Pupo - Valkyrien

I will be the gladdest thing
Under the sun!
I will touch a hundred flowers
And not pick one.
~Edna St. Vincent Millay, "Afternoon on a Hill"



When I saw these orchids first time, I said to the owner, "are those orchids real?" Roger, the husband of Ann, replied, "yes, they are real."

"Well, they look plastic to me!" So I went near to touch it and they were real indeed! And Roger laughed. I took a close up or macro shot, but there's internal error that it can't be uploaded. So I hope this shot will do.


A bonus of beautiful clusters of Azaleas.




I don't know the name of these flowers. I just took it outside the Karaka Tree Motel where we stayed in Taupo, New Zealand recently.

Check out the link for more interesting read and pictures.

Cheers!
