Almost a macro shot of the tip of the long flowering stalk of the Mexican lily. It shows multiple blossoms budding out from the stalk. The stalk and petals are pink and the buds have yellow stamens emerging. The stalk is very long and it was planted in a raised planter, so I could stand underneath and have the blue sky as a backdrop with the sun backlighting the tips.

I posted a macro of this plant (Mexican lily) yesterday. Here's a slightly broader view. It has a long stalk and was growing from a raised bed, so I could get underneath it.

Close up shot of a Mexican lily that is just starting to bud and bloom. The lily has long pink stalks from which buds appear that blossom into pink flowers (mostly pistols) with yellow stamens. The yellow stamen is emerging (It looks like a yellowish green coffee bean) from pink pods. The sky is bright blue in the background.
