WR, I missed your post. Beautiful as usual, especially the shot of the stewartia. Indian Pinks are just about to open up here. The lilies that are surviving are not yet open.
I am not helping my lilies this year and I know I will miss them. The Scarlet Lily Beetle is relentless and I can spend all afternoon picking them off. I guess the groundhog and rabbits don\'t help at all. The lilies were always a good show after the roses were done. The Hydrangea macs are going to be stingy too.

3, 4, 5, Peonies are just finished and ready to deadhead but since we are discussing them: Raspberry Clown, Bartzella (really more yellow than the photo), Coral Charm. It was a good year for peonies here. Usually they blast in a day or so but since we had rain and cool nights, we got a better show this year.
