Ta Da!

I've been watching and waiting for my first Stargazer Lily to open. Finally, today, it opened. I think they're just magical.

And why take ye thought for raiment?
Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin;

And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
Matthew 6: 28 & 29
