Kia hora te manno Kia whakapapa paumamu te moana Kia tere te Karohirohi
May the calm be widespread May the sea glisten like the greenstone And may the glimmer of summer dance across your pathways

Fragrant Thursday
Working in the garden where my Oriental lilies are planted, is a delight. The fragrance which wafts on the breeze, tickles the senses, and leaves one with a feeling of "life is good"
The scent really does carry and make working around them pleasant, yours are very pretty. I'm planning to add lots more next year, especially near the deck and front door.
I recently read about the different kinds of lilies, but the information is not in my head right now. I wasn't overly fond of the colors or shapes of the ones I planted last year, which bloomed this year for the first time. They were different from yours. Yours are pretty. I like the color and the curliness of the petals.

Beautiful. I can smell it from my computer screen!
We have some lilies but can't seem to smell them. Do smell the tomato plants !

Your sentiments about them were calming to read.
