month after month, summer after summer?

Cream and yellow lilies |
Maybe they all begin to look the same to you.
But to me, they are individual gifts - new each day.

Salmon-colored, ruffled day-lily |
White lily, purple spikes of liatris, and several colors of echinacea |

A little bouquet to send in the car with Mom and Dad on their anniversary trip |
Some more bouquets came about as a result of replacing the cement in front of our house. (No more funneling heavy rains into an old well-pit in the basement!)

Looking closely, you can see that each flower spike is made up of countless tiny flowers.
Surprisingly, the buds open from top to bottom of each spike.
Compare these to last July's flowers:
