The year that Lily came home her Papaw Russ bought her this beautiful Lily pictured below. Each year it blooms on the 11th... her anniversary.
With our recent move we didn't want to leave this special plant behind.... so it came with us.
I have to say it has never looked happier. It is about 2 times bigger this summer and seems to like its new home.
We have always been home to see it bloom on the 11th but this year we were at Kelleys Island. WELL... what do ya know.... it bloomed just a few days after we got home.
Lily isn't a fan of flies (who is?) but she wanted to make sure I got the fly in the picture of her Lily.

What a special lily for a special Lily Bug! I can't believe it blooms every anniversary and that it waited for you this year. Its gorgeous!
Have a great weekend!
Love,

Now that is just beautiful! Almost as beautiful as your Lily! I love the fact that it blooms on her anniversary! Fabulous!
Can I say that this brought tears to my eyes? It is so special that you brought "Lily's Lily" to your new house and the picture (even with the fly) is beautiful. I cherish your thoughtfulness and love. May her Gotcha Lily bloom for many years. Miss Lily is a very special ladybug & so are you. Love, Mom
That is so sweet!! Lily must love having her very own special flower that shares her beautiful name!!!
It's great to have flowers with a special history sprinkled throughout your garden!

Do you think the lily just knows? How special it is? That's pretty amazing!
