The Madonna Lilies, always prolific at this time of year.

And lastly, a birthday bouquet for my dear Prof. from another
year when there was a profusion of flowers in the garden to
choose from, although the lilieas were badly wind damaged
they were important for the fusion of scents.

  6. Your flowers are a joy, Arija. I used to have lots of Madonna Lilies, but every year, deer will eat them as soon as they start coming up the ground ... until they disappeared. :(
    Enjoy your holidays, Arija!
