Daylily Haiku Thursday | Recurved...

twisting and turning.
rolling back onto ourselves-
waiting for springtime!


This is a great photo of a recurved daylily.  See how the petals and sepals really reflex back toward the base of the bloom?  That is a characteristic that not all daylilies exhibit this clearly.  Some are flat, some are cupped, and even others are just slightly recurved.  I love this trait; it gives the "face" of the daylily a very rounded appearance.  

I love taking photos of the backsides of daylilies.  More on that later...
