Lillium formosanum
& Mrs.Delany
another lady in black.
and the lily- the most recent incarnation of Mrs. Delany, from Stefano Pilati at Yves Saint Laurent.
& never one to shy away from appearing in a little augury story-Carolina Herrera- with her own ideas on black and floral-here in on her shift-an herbarium flower, tape and all-
& with the onset of some rain today-the Lilies came in-
I welcomed them.
& tonight they submitted to more braggart-y photographs from Me, and what did I do?
-just dug the holes for the bulbs,
No, Wait, that was my brother.
& my benefactress?
Sandra Jonas, perhaps in the spirit of the story, my Duchess of Portland, or my Queen Charlotte- emerged from the cloak I wrote her in- at EDEN, here.
No-you're not seeing double, Sandra brought her Lilies inside to hold court too.
