From my office window some 200 yards away, my eye was caught — again — by the startling salmon color of these surprise lilies. This group was backlit by the morning sun filtering through the canopy around it. Especially beautiful was how the sun lit up the bases with a glorious chartreuse glow. These lilies have been popping up all over town, random beauty in the Arkansas autumn.
And say good day to these good mornings:

Love that gorgeous red!
Thanks so much! Appreciate you stopping by and taking time to comment!
Such long stalks.
These guys are about 15-18 inches tall and they look taller because they are bereft of leaves. They’re odd little plants, but certainly live up to their name!
