In my 06/16/23 postcard, I showcased an Orange day lily. Intriguingly, this unique flower is incapable of reproducing, and its dazzling bloom is fleeting, lasting for a single day. It’s fascinating to observe that this plant’s primary function is to create a flower whose existence in full bloom only lasts a solitary day.
