Here’s the original photo of the lilies from my previous post for Ileana’s challenge “What color do you think I am?”. The correct answer is orange.
When I was little, my grandparents had orange lilies in their garden and these flowers always remind me of my summer vacations in the mountains, the fresh air, the little river and the beauty of the small village they lived in.
I have another story with lilies. When I was in elementary school, students usually gave teachers flowers for the first and last day of school, as well as for other holidays. On the last day of school one year, I had a beautiful flower bouquet with a gerbera flower and a lot of green plants and other decorations. However, while playing with my friends, I somehow lost the gerbera flower and it was nowhere to be found in the schoolyard. I was left with just beautifully wrapped greenery. Then, my best friend who had a wonderful bouquet of lilies picked one of the blossoms and gave it to me to put it into my bouquet so I don’t embarrass myself in front of the teacher. I always smile thinking of this story; it’s great to have good friends.

It’s a lovely color indeed. For some reason, most of my photos for this challenge have orange although it’s not my favorite color.
I guessed the wrong color.
I haven’t had much luck in the game lately, but it’s fun!
Great, dear friend …. I guess I guessed the color orange
Well done and thanks for playing!
I got this right. I think today is my lucky day, I’ve got all my guesses right LOL . I fell in love with flowers and gardening at the age of four. My dad taught me small tricks in gardening. The first flower I planted was a zinnia .
Well done! 🙂 It’s amazing and wonderful that you kept your love for gardening so long.
well see, i went pink! oh well. someday I will get another one right!
I haven’t had much luck in the game lately either.
it is a happy positive game and I am enjoying people not yelling at each other for a change!
I agree; it also reminds us of the role colors have in our life and how our brain fills in the gaps of things we don’t know.
the human mind loves to fill in the blanks!
I bet on pink and made a mistake. I have a chance to know next time.Daffodils and crocuses that I planted a week ago are already blooming on my terrace.
It’s so nice that you are already enjoying the beauty of spring!
I just bought bulbs for orange lilies this past weekend and I will plant them soon.
That’s awesome, they always brighten the garden.
I thought it was yellow. Sorry, I do not have stories about flowers.
Thank you very much for playing the game!
That is the color I thought they were. They look very lovely in orange.
Thank you and well done for guessing the color!
I can not believe. I guessed the right color. ?
Well done and thank you for playing! 🙂
I guessed yellow. They re red in my garden. The orange is gorgeous.
My special story is about Dustin’s roses in the garden. Never grown a rose bush before. Always heard how difficult and time consuming it can be to grow roses. So I tried anyway. Got one bush and it has bloomed every year for several years now. I want to plant more. Such a happy place to visit when all the blooms are in full bloom.
Lilied are such versatile flowers, but I feel like orange are the most common here.
Thank you for sharing, I love roses!
Those flowers are very pretty.
Thank you very much!
