Hello friends,
The first time that I laid my eyes on the Tiger Lily, I could not believe that it was real. I felt the leaves. They felt real enough. Then I touched the flower. It was real. The waxen petals of this beauty curl around and face the ground. But that’s okay with me. Even from a distance, a large cluster of brilliant orange tiger lilies can take your breath away.
Just yesterday, I received a wonderful surprise in the mail. My DOUBLE Tiger Lilies had arrived. Double Tiger Lilies are a spontaneous mutation that causes them to have a plethora of petals. I have lusted after these lilies ever since I first saw them. At the time, they were too expensive for me. However the price came down far enough so that I was able to buy three.
Three lilies are the perfect amount to buy, because lilies, especially the nearly wild Tigers, bloom year after year, and they multiply almost exponentially. In three years my arms will be full of lilies.
There are many reputable garden nurseries, online, that are safe to buy from. You want to get large, vigorous bulbs. And please, please listen. Buy from a reputable online nursery, not the discount stores. I will be talking more about this in another issue. Lilies can be planted in early spring or fall, and they will bless your life for years to come.
My garden is a place of real joy to me. Often, while on my knees, I talk to God about the things I love: my family, my children, my faith, and, oh yes, that little flower over there, Lord. It’s so tiny. Will it grow and flourish?
In my heart I hear His answer. My child, give the little flower love, even as I have loved you, and it will grow and flourish.
With a warmth in my heart, that I cannot express, I feel loved and validated by my Father in Heaven. He knows me. He not only knows what I am doing; he knows what I am trying to do.
Well, friends, I’m leaving now, but I will be back soon. I will make certain that I have the resources that you need, so that you, too, can have the garden of your dreams.
With love,
Jaye Lewis
