Stella's Cousin


And here's the common day lily. The worst part about this flower is that it spreads like crazy and takes over other plantings. It used to grow up around my house foundation. I never should have moved it to my flower bed. Oh, well, we all make gardening mistakes. Planting a pink peony bush in the midst of my yellow & orange flower bed was definitely another horticultural no-no.

  1. Just enjoy the abundance... and I happen to think yellow, orange & pink go perfectly well together, just think of beautiful Indian sari's.
    Personally, my garden is a hit & miss project too. Some you win and some you loose - mostly to squirrels & deer.
    Much love & happy mom's day.

  2. Thanks, Lola! Squirrels & deer! We have a whole new garden site this year and a solar electric fence charger. They literally ate up last year's garden.
    Darn, I was going to post the pink peony and I did the Mother's Day Card instead. You are absolutely right! Yellow, orange & pink make an interesting, fresh combination. Awesome!
