Description
A wild lily growing in the ditch by my house.Michigan Lily is often mistaken for (or mistakenly called) Turk's-cap Lily (Lilium superbum) but there are apparently subtle differences between them. L. superbum is not native to Minnesota, but is found farther south and east. Michigan Lily flowers resemble those of Tiger Lily (L. lancifolium) but the leaves are distinctly different and Tiger Lily has distinctive bulbets in the leaf axils. While Michigan Lily plants are often found singly in the wild, it can produce dense stands under cultivation though many gardeners find it has difficulty persisting over time.

Gorgeous capture of this little *ditch lily.* Love the raindrops and the tiny, little spider webs. Nice work. v13/fv

I have this obsession with water droplets in photos, I just love how they look. Great composition and an overall excellent shot. PS. Even though I don't normally mention it, any time I "comment", I ALWAYS vote too at the very least. ;-)
