Discoveries
I never knew that water lilies give off a scent.
This lily in the right hand side of the old washing trough in the courtyard was startling for two reasons: it rarely flowers.
I have the most abundant leaves on this side. And now that it has I can distinctly smell a sweet, delicate perfume.
A hot evening in a courtyard will help that along. I’m delighted.

I did indeed. One lily in a sunken basket in each trough. And haven’t they come along?
