~ And the wand like lily which lifted up
As a Maenad, it moonlight~colored cup,
Til the fiery star, which is it's eye;
Gazed through clear dew on tender sky.
~Percy B. Shelley
~Stargazers are considered to be one
of earth's most perfect flower's..

Hi Cat, I completely agree. Stargazer is a magical lily. So easy to grow and find, even at Walmart. The fragrance is divine and the color so welcome at this time of year. Thanks for showcasing it.

Ah Cat, Stargazers are my favorite lily as well...mine are just starting to bloom. I cannot wait to snap some photos. Yours as usual, are gorgeous. The smell of these lilies is so intoxicating.
beautiful colors, is indeed a beautiful flower.
I would agree that the stargazer is a perfect flower! I have always had several grow in my rose garden but I guess the cold cold winter was too much for them as this year I don't have any! sigh. Yours are stunning..I can smell it's intoxicating fragrance from here!!!
P.S. Cat thank you for the lovely comment on my rose post! xo NG

Beautiful pictures...some of the close-ups remind me of watermelon.
Your photo's take my breath away. The stargazer is one of my favorite lilies. Wouldn't it be nice if we could bottle the scent.
The macro of one petal makes me think of watermelon. Summer time certainly. Your pictures are wonderful, specially the colors.
Beautiful pics, i love your Blog.
