what is this?


Last year, I had one winter blooming flower in my front yard. Now I have a small colony, surviving snow and frigidness. 

Someone called it an evening primrose but according to Wikipedia, that would open only at the close of day. Mine opens all day, everyday.

I believe someone else called it a wood rose. Is that what this is?


By whatever name, it is sweet. It is my own, personal miracle that appears in January and persists.
As must we all.

  1. Thank you, Mim. It could be a Mariposa lily. We have some that come up in spring and bloom all day.
