The Stick Flowers
Ok, awhile back I mentioned that my aunt had these big blooms that sprouted off of a stick in her yard. These would be the flowers. She calls them the twin towers, because she has no idea what they are either. They are really pretty, and as you can see by the last one, critters love 'em! (First time I have ever seen a lightning bug and a spider co-habitat...was kinda strange....) Anyway, does anyone know what they are?
Also, Conz mentioned that she liked these little buttony flowers in one of my entries, so I thought I would put this full size pic of them up. They are really pretty and petite, only about an inch across. They are...um...crawling something-or-other...I so am not good with names. I just call 'em buttons. It works. This one's for you, Conzo love. mwah!
I am off to Music City (Nashville...home....) for some good times, good music, and a lil' R & R away from Alabama...(yay!) Some people call it FanFair...I don't care what it's called now as long as I am present. You guys have a great week! Christie

Whoa!!! Absolutely breathtaking!
What are those little purple/yellow flowers? I am totally in love with them!!!! -
The 'stick flowers" are some variety of asiatic lilly. I have a lot of them in my yard. They're spectacular. I particularly like your little multi colored "button flowers". I haev no idea what the are, but they are beautiful.

I'd say the Lilly like ones are some type of Amaryllis as they bloom in quads or pairs. I have the second one growing, very tiny blooms that I never manage to get right.
