Just because she can

The stalks have dried and the seed pods have dropped into the ground for next spring's bloom, and yet my yellow lily, who normally blossoms and shows off mid June, has decided to give one last mid October hoorah.

I have never seen her act so boldly! But waiting only three months instead of an entire winter to smell her fragrance again was lovely.

I just hope she's not going senile because I'm sure next year's pansies will be fairly particular about who they share a bed with.
