Spotted while poking around in the garden after work today.
I promise to catch up on people’s journals soon! I keep spending too much time messing with my photos from our trip to Italy – it’s a black hole type of project! But satisfying. Tomorrow night after work I’m going to a SC Aquarium event with a friend, so maybe Wednesday will be my folia catch-up night? We’ll see. Definitely soon – it was fun to see what happened in my own gardens while we were away, and I’m eager to see what’s been going on in all of yours. :)

Is that a blackberry lily? It looks exactly like crocosmia.

Have to agree with janietta (though I’ve only seen pictures of blackberry lily and haven’t grown it). What ever it is I love it’s vibrant colour.
