Huh?? A What?? I thought they said Gloria or Rosia Roths Childrens Lily. Oh Well!! It's also known as the Climbing Lily or Flame Lily. I've had these strange looking flowers growing in my yard for over 30 years. I didn't have a clue what they were till I spotted them at a plant nursery the other day. Have a great Weekend.

Be careful when trying to pronounce these....You don't want any children around, just in case....LOL. Just a remarkable looking flower. Never seen anything like it before. Great post for a Foofy Friday.

A photograph is a memory in the raw. I will always treasure mine.
Great capture of a Gloriosa Rothschildiana Lily, aka Gloria or Rosia Roths Childrens Lily (smile), or Climbing or Flame Lily.
Anyhow an excellent F² (Foofy Friday) post Ed. Well done!

Cornelius was here either to enjoy your image or say 'thank you' for your interest in my gallery. In the first case, please CLICK HERE to see my work!
Great shot Ed. If you are ever digging any up to thin them up, I will give them a home. They truly do look like a flame. Those would be a fine eye-catcher for any garden.

Wow ... I've never seen this type of lily before. The petals to resemble flames in a fire. Beautiful vibrant colors ... excellent capture Ed.

This is it! ... MJ
What a name! - But the flower is very lovely and you have done a very good job of photographing it, Ed. The colours are pleasing to the eye and your composition is nice.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?
Must be the Lily of the Vault as opposed to the valley Huck. It should do good with the voters. You can bank on it. It sure has some fiery colors. Good F² post.

Exotic and gorgeous flower... I see why it's been called the flame lily. Your shot of it is clear and colorful and foofy!

I have never seen a lily like this one, but would love to have a few for my garden! I love the color, and it does look like shooting flames. I wonder if it does well in cooler places (NY) I think I will go look it up....Great capture, it's really cool.

Come over to the dark side, we have cookies. :)
Ok, I just looked it up and the lily likes the warm weather, it can't stay in the ground if it gets below 25 degrees in winter. I guess that's why a lot of us have not seen one before. Thanks for share it with us, it truly is a beautiful shot, better than the one I just saw online.

This is a really clear shot of this beauty. Its amazing what we find out about our surroundings after so long, but just shows you that even in our back gardens there can still hold a surprise or two. Lovely colours too. Well done!
