More of Suzi's flowers

Suzi has a large flower garden, full of beautiful flowers. Here are the prettiest of what were blooming on July 4th.

I believe these first ones are sweet williams.

I need help on identifying these next ones. Suzi couldn't remember what they're called. Anybody know? Update: I've been told that they are called "Common Sundrops". Thanks, Kris!

You can click on the images to see them just a bit bigger and clearer.

I found the lily below very interesting. When I asked if it was a day lily or a tiger lily, Suzi told me it's actually an Easter lily! She said this is what they do when you plant them outside to bloom year after year. What were originally white flowers actually come back as orange or yellow! I'd never heard that before, nor have I ever tried planting an Easter lily outdoors. Have any of you had experience with this? How fun! And gorgeous!

As you can see, Suzi's are going to bloom like crazy!
