And here they are all planted in the newly created lily garden in the dog run.
I planted these a few weeks ago a couple days after I bought them, but didn't take a picture. Now it is November 7 and winter has arrived. :( I don't think the high will reach 30 degrees today. Hopefully everything in this new bed will survive. I planted all the lily bulbs and also a peony and some ground cover plants to grow around the lilies.
