My mother hated lilies - thought they were harbingers of death - her favourites were gladioli.

A beautiful close-up of a lovely flower. I usually like 'cosy' flowers that clump together but you have brought out the beauty of this bloom.

Gerald - I think that was a view held by many when lilies were only usually seen at funerals :-)

lovely lilies. I associate them with Holy Week, so I like them.

This lily is of such pure white colour! Brilliant L word.
