These eye-catchers were not in bloom when I traveled north on this highway earlier in morning. Going south later, the ROW was virtually orange in many places. Taking photos, I ran out of camera memory and on a tight schedule so not able to photo the actual awesome expanse of some of the displays.

My location received over 9 inches of rain during the past weekend.
Noticed several areas this evening at my residence with lilies I had never observed before.
