Another look at Lil's chrysanthemum.....
When we moved to our current location in the fall, 47 years ago, these unassuming plants were blooming up against the north side of the house. I was happy to have a few flowers to pick for the Thanksgiving table.
Mostly they have been left alone. A few were transplanted to different flowerbeds, but the original cluster of plants is still there. Cheery, sturdy, not asking much--they still give me great joy.
Lil was the lady who planted them, and I think of her every time they bloom.
