Lilies

Some years ago a friend gave me a pot full of Christmas lilies in flower (Lilium longiflorum). I'm not sure how long ago that was, but it must have been before I started my blog. This year, for the first time, they are flowering again:

The rescued crinum lily is also flowering:
Most of the others in the local area are flowering now as well. So this one was obviously just confused when it tried to flower in winter.

Interesting!! What you refer to as Christmas lilies are known as Easter lilies here in the US. Thanks for the glimpse of spring!
