My favourite summer flower

Hvid Okseøje /White segetum /Leucanthemum vulgare are perennial, herbaceous plants with a view favoured leaf rosette and an upright, branching growth.
The stem is furrowed and pale hair. The leaves are scattered off and stalked (stalk leaves are however nonstalked). Basic leaves is inversely ovoid with round serrated or rough serrated edge, while the stem leaves are line-or lancet-shaped, with flaps to the toothed rim. The surface is grass green and the underside is light green.

Found that up against a wall, I have never seen it before. so hopefully it will bloom again next year.

Tiger Lily / Lilium lancifolium is a big family that is widespread in Europe, Asia and North America.
Like other true lilies, the flowers are borne on an erect stem 80–200 cm tall, clothed with the more or less linear leaves 6–9 cm long and 1–2 cm broad. It is one of a very small number of species that produce aerial bulblets, known as bulbils, in the leaf axils along the stem. These can be used to propagate the plant. Flowers on the plant last for a short period of time before they wither and are replaced by newer flowers
