I'm really starting to like the UF so my favorite is Ledgewood's Calico Blues. I also like Lovely ladybug and Little Surfer Girl (which is on my must-have list). Nice to see gorgeous daylily pictures.

Jill...you must have been posting at the same time I was, I missed you, sorry! :) Glad you enjoyed my dl's. Tammy...I'm sorry, I failed to answer your question about my camera. It's a Fuji Finepix S700. The macro and super macro capabilities are wonderful as is the 10x optical zoom. It really lets you get up close and personal with your blooms. LOL Shelly....I totally understand, my list just keep growing and growing and growing..kind of like that Energizer bunny, you know? :) I've had MM for a couple of years now, and it's really struttin it's stuff this season. FT is brand new and that was the FFO on it. It's one of my brightest dl's. Chris....You're gonna love AS, it's one of my favs, but then I've got so many fav's!! LOL Thanks for the comments, glad you enjoyed looking. Jan

@ David That juanngoiana is truly lovely. I'm not sure I even know how to say the name once, though... So, those soligamiana flowers, they are a kind of strawberry orange color? What would you compare it to? The skin of a peach? You might as well try for another IML 0022. It's a nice pottsii to grow since the leaves are smallish and pretty. @ Mike That's a beautiful set of photos. I especially like the erythrina one. Just gorgeous against the dark background. The meliflua buds, on the other hand, are very gorgeous, but with that lighting they look like some kind of alien pods that are going to burst open and drop squiggly fast-moving blood-drinking predators. Of course, you're used to that, since you grow orchids, which are geniuses at looking like beautiful nightmares.

Beth - Those roses are gorgeous! I've been considering Sedona, because I love the unique color, that picture is helping me decide. I really like the 777 Rose, Showtime, Lavender Lady and Farfalla. Your Plum Velvet is lovely too, I think it is great that you have roses that are not even in commerce. They are all very nice! This post was edited by Sara-Ann on Mon, Sep 15, 14 at 7:07

Who could be bored by those lovely daylilies! So nice to have those early blooms. Mine are just starting to grow. Todays soaking rain should really get them going.

I saw both posts and Wow, you have so many blooming. Do you grow most of yours in pots? Looks great and keep posting. I'm enjoying the show.

Are you getting good rainfall this year? I see drops on some of the pics. Calico Blues and Surfer Girl are two eye-catching ones, but also two not likely to do well here.

Wow! I love that you have so many blooming already. These are all wonderful and pure indulgence for the soul. Just what I needed to try to be optimistic that spring is around the corner.....even if that corner is covered in snow...lol.
It is so hard to pick a favorite anytime of the year, but right now being so starved for daylilies they ALL are my favorites. The color of Hot Scheme makes me feel warm all over.
And there is no way you can bore me with your pictures. I am starving for MORE so please keep them coming!
Thanks Linda.

Thanks so much everyone for all the nice comments. I look forward to seeing all of your photos, they keep the obsession going for me because mine will be all bloomed out and I need to see that eye candy.
Julia, yes I do grow all of my DL's in pots I was tired of weeding grass all the time out of my beds so the pots are easier for me.

I don't think anybody who loves daylilies could ever be bored, so keep the pictures coming. Again, I won't pick favorites, just so glad to see so many pretty ones. I have yet to find a scape on any of our DLs because of the continued cold weather. It was 36 degrees yesterday morning, and we had covered plants because we were afraid of frost. So, I will be looking forward to seeing as many of yours as you have. Avedon

You certainly won't bore me with bloom shots. They;'re motivators for me to keep at it today with cleaning up my gardens. Lovely Ladybug and Larry Grace are my favorites of these!

I'm still trying to get all my pots divided and fertilized - and Lord help me, more new ones coming in soon to pot up. Your pictures show me why I'm doing all this. I'm not just nuts, it's because of blooms like yours. Your posting at this time is an inspiration to all of us......Maryl....P.S. With my yellow prejudice showing, I've got to say how wonderful Larry Grace looks to me.

Ledgewoods Calico Blues is my favorite too. Little Mystic Moon is on my must have list because everyone says what a fabulous bloomer it is.
