RE: fox tail lilies


Well of course it works that way!  The friend who grew them doesn't even
know their name!  She always defies the odds/conventional wisdom in her yard
because she doesn't like reading, just buys what she likes and plants it,
even though it "should" FAIL in our area.  Cracks me up.  She always
inspires me to keep trying no matter what the "experts" say!  Her foxtail
lilies are beautiful and we have had a miserably wet winter and spring, and
cool too.

For mine is a little old-fashioned garden where the flowers come
together to praise the Lord and teach all who look upon them to do
likewise.
