Consider the Lilies

“Why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin. And yet I say unto you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.”

One of my favorite plants to grow is the lily. I literally do nothing to these once they are planted, and yet they reward me with their beauty every year. I’m lucky enough to live where they are able to naturalize, but it is so amazing to watch these plants grow. They bloom for only a brief time, but when they bloom, wow. The colors are just incredible.

So much is in bloom here right now. In a few weeks, it will get too hot for most of them to handle. But, for now, I’m surrounded by beauty.
