Two things we look for that remind us that those cold 60 degree winter days are ahead; That's the cool early September morning, and the appearance of the spider lily. Spider lilies grow from bulbs, so they come up every year. Sometimes they volunteer in a new spot, perhaps planted by an animal, maybe just a natural surprise. This morning, I stepped across the street, to look around Adrene's garden, and realized that I've shown you most of what she has blooming right now. Henri the kittten was helping me, and he caught my eye over on the edge of the yard. There, I spotted something white. Not white; it was a pale yellow spider lily. I don't recall ever seeing one "in person," so today you get to see my first. http://www.sonc.com/friday_september_4_2009.htm <http://www.sonc.com/friday_september_4_2009.htm> some red ones: http://www.sonc.com/friday_september_19_2008.htm -- Regards, Sonny http://www.sonc.com http://sonc.stumbleupon.com/ Natchitoches, Louisiana (+31.754164,-093.099080) USA
