It is already showing strong signs of becoming a more beautiful day as the sun warms the earth on this first official day of summer, 2022, and to make it official, my Mary Lincoln daylilies began blooming this morning.

About fifteen years ago, Jim and Debbie McCutcheon sent me a box of Mary Lincoln day lilies and they have been a passers-by favorite for years. Mine, too.

For nearly two weeks, they generally make a daily appearance on their summer tour with as many as eighteen blooming in one day.

If you are passing by The Haasienda, please be sure to spy those deep yellow daylilies in the front yard.

Flowers can help make it a great day, but only we can truly make it a great day!
