I think that’s what these are called.  Or are they canna lilies?

Maybe I’ll call them tiger cannas.  This is the first year they’ve bloomed.

They put a smile on my face this Friday morning.  I hope they did yours as well!

Have a great weekend!

    Stunning. I’ve never seen those. The wild tiger lilies that we see in the Sierras were always my grandmother’s favorites: http://www.freerangestock.com/details.php?gid=&sgid=&pid=1160

    Why is it that when I see something that enticing I revert to the age of 9 months and want to shove it into my mouth? Whether or not it’s edible has nothing to do with it. Yummy!
