Saturday Photo: A Tangle of Hosta Flowers, and Shooting Star Daylilies

One of the joys of a garden full of perennials is that the plants and the flowers come back, even in yars of neglect. I took these yesterday, when the hostas--all descendants of three plants I bought 15 years ago--were in full flower around the front garden patch, and the daylillies were beginning to bloom

Aside from a little watering in recent days and the application (read: dumping) of some composted manure in May, I've done nothing this year to the garden. Still the flowers have come back in their usual progression. Ain't nature grand!
