“Carletta, these are so bright and chruefel they made me think of your granddaughter, Lily, so I'm posting them for both of you. Every photo that I took, regardless of the settings, the color ended up looking like this. Of course, the blinding sunlight didn't help. After trying for over an hour to get the color right, I gave up and decided to post them anyway. They are really a very dark red, almost maroon.I have forgotten what the names are (other than lily) . I planted eight last year they only grew about six inches and didn't have a single bud. This year, each one is about three feet tall (my breezeway looks like a jungle) and has a cluster of five buds.”
