Mosaic Monday: Day Lilies


Welcome to Mosaic Monday, hosted by Mary at Little Red House.

I'm sharing a picture mosaic of some of the day lilies in the front and back yards today. You know how much I love roses. Well, I like to plant day lilies next to the rose bushes. Besides being beautiful, the day lilies also camouflage the bottom of the rose bush when it sometimes begin to look a bit leggy. I think it's fascinating how some of the flowers look like carved wax. They're so pretty.

Please visit our charming hostess Mary @ Little Red House
for the list of other participants.

Enjoy!
Diane

Daylilies are the best plant I think. So tough, sturdy and reliable. I have quite a few and am always looking for more.

Diane, Your mosiac is so pretty today. I love those Daylilies, especially the center one. Great idea to plant them near the rose bushes. I'll have to do that. This is my first summer with a few rose bushes. ~ Robyn
