One-day daylily

This daylily bloomed yesterday in our front garden, the first of a number there. I went out in the rain in the early evening to get a shot because I wasn’t sure how long it would last. Turned out it was gone by this morning. I had no idea that they were literally one-day-lilies!

You're lucky to see blooms. The deer eat ours before we can see them.

It’s a real beauty so a shame it doesn’t last. You braved the elements and got a lovely photo of it though.
