Those are such inspiring pictures! Every year I plant over 5,000 daylily seeds (directly) out in my field and am just in awe at the wonderful surprises that are all wrapped up in those little black pearls! Here are a couple of pic of the daylilyfield

The second pic is of my new worker that just LOVED getting rid of the weeds and even wanted to work in the rain! I found her late in the season so she had waaay more weeds than anyone should ever have to deal with! She is truly my 'gardener extraordinaire'!
The last pic is of myself in the field collecting my blossoms in a basket to bring back into town with me for my "show and tell" , making rounds to many of the businesses who really love to see them!
Most of the seeds take between two and 3 years to show their blooms, but when it is done every year, it just feels like I see something new every year...and every day from late June into Sept. Christmas in July is what I call it!
Enjoying God's creation, one leaf at a time
