Life does surprise us.
Sometimes with storms.
Sometimes with unexpected friendships.
Sometimes with lilies!
These "Naked Ladies" were spotted on an early morning bike ride through the neighborhood.
Are they genuine "Surprise Lilies," a.k.a. "Naked Ladies"?
They were that morning!
These lilies were nicknamed "Naked Ladies" because the leaves arrive long after the flowers, leaving the delicate ladies naked!
That is also the reason they "surprise," showing up suddenly out of nowhere!
