Beautiful Colors Around the Pond


The plants around the pond are lush but the colors are mainly green. So it was great to see the Day Lilies start blooming and they are beautiful. The flowers are 6 to 8 inches across and being Day Lilies only last a day. Luckily the plants have a bunch of buds so the display should last for several weeks. The Elephant Ears planted 2 months ago around the pond are currently about 3 feet tall with giant leaves but should be 5 feet tall very soon. We had so many Elephant Ear bulbs, I was looking for places to plant them and some ended up in the middle of the back yard where we removed a Peach tree. We circled the area with red landscape bricks for definition.
