Lilium – What color do you think I am? (Orange)

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.

  1. 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 .

  2. 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.
