I'd like some lilies. Are they daylilies or true lilies? I do love wintergreen but I just lost my one little plant (drought). Nibble the leaves when they're young and red--they're far too astringent when they mature. For your bees I have agastache foeniculum and agastache golden jubilee plants. I also have yarrow in pink and reddish shades (Summer Berries/Terracotta).

I will take them and give them a wonderful - I live in Florida and have a heated greenhouse and lots of experience with tropicals - please email me and we will make the necessary arrangements. Thanks!

I love lilies for their stately appearance and scent... but hate the red lily beetle battle. We live along a river and worry about pesticide run off. So there are only two clumps in our yard. However, we do have many varieties of daylily. These are one of my favorite flowers... but my DH is not crazy about them. He thinks the long slender leaves and the same green tones look boring. The compromise was to place them among plants with different leaf textures and colors. And I have to agree with him that this helps to hide the ratty look of day lilies as they mature. (You're so right about that, Kevin.) A favorite new day lily is H. 'Light the Way' which I found at Bloomingfields Farms in Gaylordsville, CT. These are magnificent! The stems are very tall, which means the plant can be tucked behind shorter plants and the whitish blossom will peek out above its neighbors. Here is what LtW looked like the other day in our gardens. The flower color is more like the second shot...green and white tones. One "problem" ..... day lily clumps can get enormous and crowd out other things, even when divided. That happened in our small yard. The 6 tiny Hemerocallis 'Malaysian Monarch' fans that I planted years ago spread like the plague. We gave most of them away to a friend with lots of property. Molie

No problem, let me know when you're ready. The Alba is just starting to sprout a few little leaves.
