Looks like a lily... smells like a lily

but its a crinum lily from the amaryllis family. I had no idea what they were when I moved in (I have about 10 clumps in different places in the yard) and imagine my surprise when they bloomed with these "lilies" that smell so fragrant!! :lol: Guess they are very common here in Texas. http://RockinC...

This is the third year in a row that we've had these frosts. Just in case I have any damage this year, I'm glad I won't have to look at it. :oops: :lol: I moved all 40 pots to the garage yesterday morning so they wouldn't have any frost damage.

Hope you made out okay Jane!

http://RockinC.smugmug.com/photos/181092006_UEiYk-Ti.jpg Hi Jimmy!! Dividing and digging was probably one of the saddest things I've done for this move. Most of my hostas are big now and its frustrating to think I'm going to start over with hostas that are only two to six eyes. :cry: And also sad t...

Ginger, the front of the house does face east and yes, I've already decided that the bushes in front of the porch must go. :lol: I am going to leave the hostas in pots for one year and then see how everyone is doing.

I'm kinda already facing this with my collection of 300+ hostas and probably 100 companion plants that will mostly be left behind when I move to Texas. :cry: I will divide and take some of them with me but it will probably only be 20-30 hostas and all of the lilies. I deeply saddened leaving them be...

Well, the new owner, who also farms the land behind our place, has decided the beavers are not welcome. Our creek affects 8 sections of land in our township alone and roughly 1600 acres of farmland. The farmers don't want the beavers backing up the water and he brought a backhoe and dug out the dam ...
