Hemerocallis fulva or daylily, 忘憂草

It is said that flowering period of this plant is one day almost. If so, fortunately, I was able to catch the best timing of flowering.
The name of Daylily comes from flower that lasts a day only.
忘憂草（Wàng yōu cǎo) is Chinese name of this plant, and it is romantic name.
By the way, I remember one song 忘憂草 composed by Ms Keiko Utoku, who is japanese singer and songwriter, and sung by 周華健(Wakin Chau)

After typhoon has gone away, it is really hot and humid today from this morning. It is now 87  degree Fahrenheit and 73% of humidity at 10:30 a.m. in the area where I live.
According to the latest weather forecast, today's maximum temperature will rise up to 93 degree Fahrenheit, this is the first time record in this summer.
Therefore, I'd like to share an image which seems to be cool.
Be careful about heat stroke!
