Hi All, Sorry I was going to post the pics last night but Mr Sandman put me out. I didn't have a flickr account so I got that done today. Uploaded 3 pics so everyone interested can see the Lilium flower, Lilium plant with seed pod and what I think is a kind of Liatris. The Liatris is not very large. All of the ones I saw were laying over. With the flower head overpowering the miniscule size of the stem. The single stems were all short with the longest one about 20 cm long. Upon a closer look at the pic I saw the leaves were not fuzzy like I thought but the stem is. Anyway I hope you can tell enough about them to ID them. My photography is not the best in the world. A fact that my brother so eagerly reminds me of. lol http://flickr.com/photos/oothal/… This is my first time to link to flickr so if it doesnt work let me know.
