Fortnight lily (Dietes)
Yes, that palm tree is going to need taking out soon.
She has some lovely flowers and it is good to see them.

i missed one of ellie's day lilies while i was posting, (i even missed taking the photo but went back for it).  i really like this one and it really needs dividing.  i have to look up the best way/time to do that, ellie said i could :grinnnn:

thanks bonnie.   the landscaping had good "bones" and we've just tweaked and added.  i say we because while i haven't done any of the physical labor (except the trips to the green house) i have done lots of the planning and plant picking
