I love it when plants are family heirlooms... This amazing lilly was much beloved by my Dad - the pompom balls are approx 10 inches across and quite spectacular.
Seeing it bloom always reminds me of him and the many family Christmas get-togethers we enjoyed so much.
Wishing all of you the best possible Christmas, wherever you may be, and may you still find a way to share Christmas wishes and thoughts with family and loved ones - either directly or from a distance. Hopefully 2021 will bring some true cheer and hope to all of us again.
Wonderful capture of these unusual flowers bringing back fond memories. Wishing you and your loved ones a Merry Christmas and a healthy, happy New Year :-)

@granagringa Hi Granagringa - thanks for your concern but I think it's probably all my fault. We seem to have been madly busy for the last few months and I haven't been posting at al regularly.
I hope you had a pleasant Christmas and I'd like to wish you a much better 2021 than we all had in 2020. Kind regards Rob :)
@summerfield Thanks Vikki - hot and steamy over here - good for a nice cold beer or wine. I hope you had a pleasant Christmas and I would like to wish you a much better 2021 than the 2020 we all had. Kind regards Rob. :)
@casablanca Thanks so much for your kind wishes. And surely 2021 can only be better. Keep safe and I look forward to hearing more of your family's watery adventures next year. XX
@onewing Thanks for your kind wishes Babs - we are actually having a delayed Christmas celebration today. It will be delightful to see our 2 babies enjoying themselves - along with all of the big people. I hope you had a pleasant Christmas and I would like to wish you a much better 2021 than the 2020 we all had. Kind regards Rob. :)
@shutterbug49 Hi Shutterbug - thanks for you comment - as you said - these are huge and very showy. A wonderful memento to see each year.
