Calla Lily

green leaves, foreshadow, of sword-like regalia… lily buds unsheathed - dainty pastels of yellow, purple, pink and lavender

I love yellow, pink and lavender, also like the idea of 'buds unsheathed' - so pretty they can cut you!

I love those in my garden, but they don't do so well here because of the heat. They are a beautiful asset to a garden. Thanks for sharing this descriptive work with us and for dropping by my page. Sara

My husband gave me some for our anniversary! He replanted them. For years now they grow and have sprouted others too! :)
