Powell Lily

My Powell Lily is blooming. Its name honors C. B. Powell (1830-1904), Irish/English businessman and avid gardener who developed and introduced this bulb! Because Powell is my maiden name I love it even more.

Wild rambling roses bloom along my walking path. I have pink and white. They are invasive and I spray them when I have energy. It’s mowing time again. Lots to do and only me to do it.

Sigrid and I are going to lunch today. It’ll be the high light of my week.

What a beautiful Lily! I hear you on the you are the only person to do the mowing and taking care of weeds. I am going to be far behind after this rain quits. One day at a time. I hope you have a fun lunch!
