more flowers

and today's flower is this gorgeous yellow daylily:
yellow daylily P7100003
it usually has 4 or 5 stems per year with 3 or 4 buds on each stem.. and is so outstanding and awesome looking that i really treasure each blossom. the petals are long, curved, graceful... and it's unlike any other daylily i have.

and then there's this lovely red flower... name of which i cannot remember today... maybe tomorrow. red flowers P7100026

before the heat of the day set in, (102F) i got the garden watered and picked a cucumber and some broccoli, then pretty much stayed inside the rest of the day. got about half way done on the quilting... photo when it's done.

The red flowers are "Lucifers", and it's a crocosmia lily, big brother to the orange montbretias we used to grow so lushly in Cannon Beach.
