Congratulations to Beverly! This is a one year anniversary for her renowned blog extravaganza….Pink Saturday. These are for you, Beverly and one lucky Pink Winner! I don’t know what they are for sure. Some sort of Lily that has a giant bulb with each stalk about three feet high.
Just like our Pink Saturday group they just seem to multiply.
Each stalk has 10 to 12 flowers and like this group, they are an enduring flower and last about a week…which is how long it takes to get through all the PS posts now! They were planted at least 50 to 70 years ago by a former owner and like our group shared around our 100 year old neighborhood.
They are such a beautiful pale pink. To celebrate this Pink Occasion, I plan to dig up a couple of these bulbs. One for Beverly who so graciously hosts Pink Saturday each week and one for a giveaway. Just leave a comment on this post and I’ll draw a winner the following Saturday. 
Thanks for stopping by, be sure and visit all the pink blogs at HowSweetTheSound and Happy Pink Saturday!
They look like they are beautiful when they bloom all out. I'd love to have them in my yard, you are sweet to share! happy Pink Saturday and have a loveleigh weekend!
ReplyDeleteThose are lovely lilies! I think that is so special that you are giving one to Beverly, too! That is the sweetest thought. :-)

Nancy... I don't know what the name of this flower is either... but when I lived in Dallas, I use to pass a house on Webbs Chapel that had tons of them in a sideyard of a home in Farmers Branch. Each year when they bloomed I think "maybe I should stop by and ask for a bulb"... I never did... You're a sweetie to give some away... spread the love girl!
ReplyDeletehappy pink Saturday..
blessings & hugs... Dixie
An anniversary gift away...What a grand idea...I really enjoy the bulbs I have and they were all gifted and exchanged in the same way...but not with such a lovely 100 year history...Happy Pink Saturday. Are you getting excited about Paper Cowgirl?
ReplyDeleteWow vintage Lilies!!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Pink Saturday:)
Hugs,

those lilies are gorgeous. They look like a cross between an Easter lily and some type of agapanthus. Whatever they are they look like they would smell heavenly, happy pink saturday, Char
ReplyDeleteHi, nice to meet you, neighbor! Oh I would love to have one of the bulbs, please enter me! thanks
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful pale pink! Happy Pink Saturday and please enter my name!
ReplyDeleteOh, Nancy, what a pretty pink flower and what a beautiful sentiment to share them with others and have them as part of a giveaway to celebrate PS birthday. Sharing one with Beverly is perfect and really in the "spirit of pink" that has been cultivated here!

Happy Pink Saturday Nancy! Those lilies are gorgeous! I don't know if you can ship them to California but they would look good in my garden, ;o)
ReplyDeleteHi, Nancy,
ReplyDeleteI think what you have are the white form of crinum lilies - Crinum powellii var. 'album'
Here's a website about them, with pictures:

ReplyDeleteFunny how you compared how long the flowers lasts and getting through PS participants. And how true it it with over 400 participants and still growing. 'Tis Amazing!
Happy PS!

Pretty, Pretty lilies!
ReplyDeleteA 100 year old neighborhood!It must be great to live there!
Nancy, you are a sweetheart - and just plain wonderful.
ReplyDeleteYou cracked me up about how long it takes to visit everyone. I think you are absolutely right. Most weeks I am still visiting when Pink Saturday rolls around again.
Thank you for being such a loyal participant, and for always making Pink Saturday fun.
They are lovely! I've never seen any that color before and with a pretty *pink* stripe too! tee hee! Sometimes I don't even get through the posts in a week!
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely day!
Margie :)
