Consider the Lilies
Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. --Matt 6:28-29I love lilies!!
I could have sworn I planted Casablanca's though. I wonder if soil ph affects lily color in a similar manner as it affects the hydrangea's color?

I adore lilies too. Appropriate really, as we share a Hebrew name that means 'lily' :)
I was thinking of you when I posted these, wondering if you were as fond of them as I was. Speaking of namesakes, I was reading your blog archives and learned that Lanna called you Sweet Pea! I was going to name my blog that, because it's been a special name for me, and now I call my little one by that as well (plus all manner of other things, including Love Bug, Mr. McGoo, and Snickerdoodle).
I didn't know our name had Hebrew origins! So does Love Bug's!
I was going to call my blog Sweetpea too, but it was taken. I even tried Sweetpea 1, 2, etc, but they were all taken. So I gave up and just used Pea (although that was taken too and I had to add Of the Day).
Our name means 'a lily or a rose'. Remember that painting you did for me when I was first pregnant and you surrounded the mother and child with lilies? I'm looking at it as I type. I might post it on my blog one day!
Awwww shucks, you still have it?! I kept a photo copy of it. :) Maybe one day it will appear on a Tuesday...
