Lilies

In the heat of summer the flower superstars are the lilies. 

We have all kinds in NYC

 – canna lilies,

day lilies and

even water lilies. 

Both the Central Park and the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens have lovely collections.  

But these last four photos

are from my roof garden

at the Amherst. 

We have some shade loving day lilies in the backyard as well.
