    Capt- Your Turk's Turban is beautiful! I love the water droplets shimmering on it!
    Ummm, great Toms, making me hungry! I am still patiently waiting for mine to ripen...

    What a gorgeous lily CK. I'd love to have it here in my garden if it wasn't for the dreaded Red Lily beetle. My tomato plants are just beginning to flower so let's hope they grow a few nice fruits like yours.

    I have 8 or 10 stalks of the lillys. That is the first bloom to open. After these, I have one more lilly to bloom. But I don't remember what color it is. It should be opening any ay now. I'll post a pic when it does!
