revenge of the day lilies


Was out mowing yesterday and noticed that Allyn's day lilies had blossomed again in the back where they had been eaten by cows earlier in the year. It was interesting to see that the blossoms were much lower to the ground, and, therefore, out of reach of the cows. Wondering if there might be some day lily intelligence involved in this change. This morning I checked out the day lily patch in the front. At this point, all the lilies have transitioned into seeds except for one which is of the short stemmed variety. This seems to blow a hole in my otherwise elegant theory about the intelligence of lilies.
