Just inside these sliding glass doors is where I am right now sitting at my computer desk.
This is my view from my desk.
I'm so missing the lillies now that they have faded:(
Gerbera daisies on my patio table with a little surprise my son found on the lemon tree. Is it a lemon or a yellow pepper?!!
Here's a funny little thing I just thought of....I have this cute little fake bumble bee to pollinate my flowers, and in in the first photo are some fake sunflowers on a wreath that I've actually caught a real bumble bee trying to pollinate several times!
Day lillies and Calla lillies all in a row.
The cement pond in the middle of our forest like backyard.
Calla lilly up close.
One single RED day lilly that sprung up in the middle of a bunch of yellow ones.
Thats kinda odd.
More calla lillies, they're kinda pinkish, purplish.
Kinda hard to tell though in this photo.
Tiger Lily....ahhhhh smells heavenly!!
All the lillies have faded for the year now....
It's so hard to wait for them to come back next year!

What a great garden you have. I have calla lilies for the first time this year they are so special
Sheri,
I love your backyard and your pool!
My daylilies are late bloomers, but this year won't bloom at all, because the deer got to them first.

That macro photo of the yellow calla lilies is spectacular!
My Outdoor Wednesday is a broken heart...come by to visit, won't you?
It makes me sad a bit to watch my favorite subjects (like lillies) fad... but Then i love the 4 seasons so much... that i am excited to see what is next in the mix of colors for us.
Great shots!
TTFN~~Claudia ♥
love the pictures what a view you would have from your desk and just beyond the doors you sit sounds like a bit of sci fi LOL
Hi Sherri,
What a great view to see while you blog away. All the blooms are so lovely.
I laughed about the bumblebees. I bet they are all confused. The real and the fake. I love that pool!
Hugs,

It is a beautiful garden, you have. I love the Calla Lillies. They are so delicate.

Sherri, Your photos today are gorgeous! Both varieties of lilies are so beautiful. I laughed at your reference to the "cement pond." All I could think of was Granny on the Beverly Hillbillies calling it that. *grin*
Hope your mom and sister are doing well today. hugs, Sue
Simply divine garden!

Sheri,

Sherri I was so surprised when the other winner had already received her package yesterday. That was fast! Her box went to NY so maybe that's why the time difference.
Let me know when you receive it my friend! ;)
Sherri,
I dropped by to say hello...and want to touch base. How fun you won Melissa's birthday giveaway! I'm sure you can use a little pick me up after this past month. Take care and have a good weekend.
hugs, Cathy
