LILIES OF THE FIELD…………….

Jack and I bought and moved into our Ohio home in the month of December.  We all know there were no lilies blooming then!  The first spring I didn’t know to protect the lilies from the deer so we had no blooms.  This spring, a frequent spray of a product that smells like rotten eggs kept the deer away and now we are reaping the benefits of my daily, early morning sprays.  I counted!!  There are 19 different varieties!  There is a fresh vase of cut lilies on my kitchen island every day!
