Lilies

 My Crinum Lily is blooming!
We received an inch of rain today and it brought out a lot of flowers-
 but not only flowers!
See who's hiding in the bloom?
 How about now?!
Isn't he a cute little tree frog?
He blends in beautifully!
The blackberry lilies are blooming, too!
See a few of the older blooms which have already turned to berries-they are dark, hence the name blackberry.  Though it has the common name of leopard lily or blackberry lily it is actually in the iris family for it grows from rhizomes and not a bulb.  I love to learn about plants, don't you?
