When we put our house on the market, I planted some bulbs to hide our hose. The tulips bloomed right away, but the lillies kept growing and growing and growing. Finally little buds emerged, but these split into many smaller buds which kept growing and growing...
Finally this past week the lilliess were taller than me, with many buds of different sizes, but not a blossom. I had hoped that on the last day in the house the biggest, orangest bud might bloom, but it was not to be.
We left the lillies, the herbs, the trees and the birds for the new owner.
I will miss them.
