Shovels and plastic bags...

There is a running joke in my family...if the cops stop someone and in their car there is a shovel and plastic bags...serial killer!... but if there is also a bottle of water and paper towels...Gardener!
I make it a habit to look for plants at construction sites and road sides. Always making sure it really doesn't belong to anyone and I have permission to dig it up. I also have been known to ask for seed heads and ask landscapers if they were throwing that plant away...If I sound like a plant nut so be it! I have no regrets and my garden proves it!

Enter the lilies!

What I love about gardening is the never ending show. One flower enters and another waits off stage to take it's place! spring is filled with daffodils, snowdrops and crocus soon replaced by tulips and iris and...and...Lilies!
