Queen Victoria on linden trees

So this video is currently my favorite thing ever. Maybe because I just did a Victorian show, but I think it's completely hilarious. If a little bit crude.

Daylilies, day 24

My daylilies are coming along!

The little wee one in the middle pot sadly seems to have failed. It must have been a bad bulb, as it never really got started and I treated it the same as the others. Ah, well. I can always put something else in its pot.

I can't wait till they start blooming. Older plants around town are in bloom, and I just think they're gorgeous. I want to have that on my back deck. Mine will be orange, I'm told, which I love, but when I was in Somerville this weekend I saw some lovely ones in red that made me long for pretty flowers.

They're probably not the same species as daylilies, but they're wonderful.
