Freckled flowers

Tim,

Perhaps you might like blackberry lilies, Belamcanda chinensis.  You can
view one on my web page at:
http://www.execpc.com/~llmen/belamnorm.jpg

These small lilies, with iris-like foliage are 1-2 inches in diameter and
each flower lasts only a day.  The seed pods ripen in the fall to reveal
many black, round seeds - resembling a blackberry.  They reseed quite
freely.  If you are interested in obtaining seeds, I will have lots of seed
in 3-4 weeks.  If you're interested, please contact me by PRIVATE e-mail.
