Some of the plants are from Home Depot (where I work) and some are from my own garden. Ill write which is which  Also, the camera doesnt take pictures true to color, which is a real shame, because some of the colors are so vivid in real life.
Lilies first. Now, I dont know the names of most of em, so if any of you do, let me know
These are in my garden
'Corrida'
'Matrix'
These are ones I want to get from HD, in case you cant tell, I love multi-colored lilies

Carnation (I have a dark pink one too, but it doesnt have any blooms)
Moss Rose (one of my favorite annuals)
Cant remember the name of this rose and Im too lazy to run and look at the tag 
Gaillardia
Weed growing from a bag of seeding soil...I just thought it was humorous
An annual, Soprano something-or-other

I'd love to work where you do Jen but then again, if I did, my wages would be spent before I'd even earned them!!  What beautiful lilies you have as well as the multi-coloured ones in your place of employment. I really like the moss roses and the carnations too.
Weeds will grow anywhere won't they but I've never seen any actually growing from bags of seeding soil before.

So many pretty flowers. I really like the lantana, but I'm told its an annual. Though I did manage to grow 4 from seed this year so I can't wait till they flower. Those moss ross are also pretty. Thanks for sharing these.

Ooooooh, really pretty color assortment especially the lilies. The purples are wonderful.
I love Lantana too, it is a perennial down here....loves out heat and almost constant sun.

Lovely lilies and other blooms too!  I really like lilies, and especially the multicoloured ones. But I don't know the names for all of them. The first one looks like "Sorbet".

I love your assortment of lilies, especially the lavender. I hope my 'Metaphor' is that color. All the one you want are gorgeous as well.

Sjoerd, my garden is actually very small ^_^ Ive got a roughly 21" wide by I think like 6' long area, and some bushes in front of the house which is moer moms area, but Ive got some lilies in there. Thats it so far...the carnations and rose and stuff arent in the ground yet (it wont quit raining long enough!) and the Lantana is in a hanging basket
