Before I Forget: Sharing my love for God, family, gardens and my sweet Momma
2024: Year of the Lily
With a blogging handle like barefootlilylady, I think my readers can surmise I’m a barefoot gardener who is pretty enamored with lilies. I love them all–even the wannabe lilies like Hemerocallis (daylilies). I thought my gardening friends would enjoy this fantastic article written by the National Garden Bureau. Everything you need to know about lilies.
I love sharing about my barefoot gardening adventures, hence my blogger name. As I write, some of my other passions might spill out -- like fun with grandkids, baking and sewing endeavors, what I'm studying in Scripture, and the like. My readers will notice that one of the primary things I write about is Alzheimer's. May what I write be an encouragement to anyone who is a caregiver for someone they love with memory loss.

I have a group of tall Casa Blanca lilies that I moved from the front of the house around to along the deck in back. I liked the look of those elegant white lilies against the house brick, and that they added some height to the area, but the fragrance was lost (totally sheltered from any breeze). Last year when they bloomed, the entire deck and gazebo area was perfumed. Love my Asiatics, and my daylilies, too!!!
Good info, thanks for sharing Cindie!
