Description
This Tawny Daylily, sometimes considered an invasive plant, is waiting to be pollinated. It's stamens are reaching upwards, waiting for the wind or insects to complete the process.
This particular patch of flowers went from our home in GA to our home in VA to my parent's home in Ohio and finally to our home on the Mississippi Gulf Coast!
As I look at the stamens reaching for the sky I think about how we reach for our goals.
Are our goals those of this flower? To physically reproduce?
Or are our goals of a spiritual nature? To reach upward for guidance, discernment or in praise?

Thanks, Roberta. I originally planted these in GA and a few went with me everywhere we lived. I dug these up last June from Happy Acres!
