Last week in July and the last week for my various lilies in the lily bed. The ones that have a heavenly scent have already lost their scent. We are down to the last blooms and the spent blooms. August will mean time to cut back the stalks that are leaning and let the remaining stalks gather energy for next year. In the meantime I have lots of crepe myrtle bushes that should be in bloom come August. This year's botanical play is marching on in the July heat and humidity.Tuesday, July 28, 2009
My Lilies Are Going Fast
Last week in July and the last week for my various lilies in the lily bed. The ones that have a heavenly scent have already lost their scent. We are down to the last blooms and the spent blooms. August will mean time to cut back the stalks that are leaning and let the remaining stalks gather energy for next year. In the meantime I have lots of crepe myrtle bushes that should be in bloom come August. This year's botanical play is marching on in the July heat and humidity.
Here in our heat wave my lilies are just beginning to open.
