One of the great joys in the September garden is the sudden appearance of the Lycoris radiata. These were found in the garden when I moved here and I have divided them and spread them until I have quite a colony. They are dormant in the spring and summer, bloom in the fall and have foliage through the winter. Nonconformists like me. Perhaps that is why I am fond of them.
We will have houseguests today and overnight and then tomorrow there will be another trip to visit mom.

I finally know the name of that quite popular flower. If you’re not careful, it will multiply and take over a flower bed.
It’s so nice when the fall flowering plants start to show off their blooms. What a pretty color these are.
They are very pretty. In north Florida, and most of the south for that matter, they are know by their common name, hurricane lillys, as that’s the “season” for us in which they bloom!
