Flower of the Day Challenge
I have found the inspiration for the Train and Tracks post and the Flower of the Day Challenge from Cee at her CeenPhotography blog
Here is a true lily amongst the daylilies ( which I just learned aren’t true lilies after all ) Found in my backyard under the Eastern Redbud Tree.
Lily “a bulbous plant with large trumpet-shaped, typically fragrant, flowers on a tall, slender stem. Lilies have long been cultivated, some kinds being of symbolic importance and some used in perfumery.”

Found Dried Corsage From Unknown Occasion
Found while cleaning.
Dried corsage from an unknown occasion. It was resting inside an opaque ceramic lidded box. And now that I look at it, boutonnière seems a more apt description. But here’s the thing- Preserved to remember a special occasion? A sentimental moment. And I’ve not a clue what it could be.
I’m certain other people wear the flowers for the occasion, remove them from their clothing, then slip them into the trash.
