🌱🐅 Tiger Lily vs. Daylily — Do You Know the Difference? 🌸

They may look similar at first glance, but tiger lilies and daylilies are actually very different plants!

🧡 Tiger Lilies
• True lilies (Lilium)
• Bright orange blooms with dark spots
• Petals curl backward
• Produce black bulbils along the stem
• Individual blooms last several days

💛 Daylilies
• Hemerocallis species
• Available in countless colors and forms
• Each bloom lasts just one day
• Grow in clumps from the base
• Multiply by division, not bulbils

Both are beautiful, hardy perennials that deserve a place in the garden. Which one is your favorite?

Happy Father’s Day to all the fathers out there!

My dad has taught me many things, from staying consistent in my faith to how to use power tools. 💪😆

Happy Father’s Day, Dad!

🐜🦗FRIEND 🐝🐞
Wheel bug nymph (or as I like to call nymphs, teenagers).

The characteristic wheel is not yet formed on its back.

Wheel bugs are assassin bugs, they eat other insects. So if you find one in your garden, keep it around! It’s a friend.
