Big White Trumpets!


I have no idea what these flowers are! Anyone know? They look like some type of trumpet flowers but I could be wrong. 
They look a bit like Easter lilies dont they? Upside down Easter lilies. But it's not Easter and these photos were made  a couple of weeks ago here at Canon Park downtown.


This is one of our favorite picnic spots and grand-child running spots.....I never tire of photographing the huge old columns. These are some of my favorite pictures, which surprised me as the weather was cloudy and vague that day. Surprisingly I did love the columns against the moody sky better than against bright sunny backgrounds!

    Looks like some kind of liliy! It is gorgeous and I've seen them before but am not too good on flower names! You did get some pretty snaps at this lovely place. Love the one with the dark cloudy looking sky in the background.

    Not sure, Deb, but surely they are from the Lily family.

    I believe they are Trumpet Lilies. - I have some in my own garden very much like these. Here is a link to these lilies: (not my own though)

    Gorgeous and dramatic flowers. I'm not sure what they are either. Some sort of Lilies or as you say "trumpet" but do not seem to be attached to a vine.
    Tiny Duffy baby is doing well..growing so fast. He is going to be a handsome man I think. :)
    Thanks for stopping by. I always love seeing you!
