Description
The daylily is such a special flower - so beautiful, vibrant, and full of life, but for only one day. Their ephemeral nature is always a reminder to treasure every moment. Our glorious Charles Johnson daylilies are one of the earliest to bloom, and how we look forward to them in late June.
I spent a long time trying to find just the right angle to showcase this gorgeous blossom, using a tripod to get more control.

Anita! Such an eloquent beauty!! I so agree with you about the daylily and how blooming one day at a time reminds us to love and appreciate every single moment we are given. I am not surprised at all we think the same way. And how glorious this is, and how I look forward to when they will bloom for us again! It is wonderful to see this post, like Jeff writes below!!
