Shive, that's a great photo of Clown's Cabaret. I just added that this year and just hope mine looks as good.

Maryl - My Girl starts out as a rose pink in the early morning, and takes on more peachy tones as the day progresses. It fades a bit, but the blooms have such heavy substance they always look good at the end of the day. Mantis - I would attribute the short scapes in my garden to a lack of water while the scapes were forming. Nancy and Jean - Applique does have wonderful colors. It's always a favorite in the early season. Chris - Dan says the seedling will likely be a future intro because of the large bloom size and the fabulous branching and bud count it has. Debra

well, this post certainly got screwed up, I said this is first bloom this year, but it was suppose to be for FLASH FORCE, they came up backwards, the one I dont last ended up being the first one, weird., well anyway, this is all of them, maybe next time they will come up right. jean

lovetosharedivs:Julie: I have this pinching or what others have said is canoeing on the tips of some of my daylilies. I think this may be caused by cooler temps. We are only in the 70's and our nights have ranged in the 50's. VERY unusual weather for us this year as we would typically be in the mid to upper 80's or even 90's by now. We've also had an extraordinary amount of rain thrown in. I've circled the parts which are pinched and not opening all the way.

Thanks for the nice comments. ARCTIC LACE is blooming on a new single fan that only had four buds. I was happy to get a bloom this large and nice off of it. The first two flowers were small and not really impressive, but the one today is getting there. I was pleased with how white it was upon opening, and the edge got bigger and frillier as the day wore on. I think this one will be fabulous when it matures.

This is the second bloom on MULBERRY CONNECTION, and I was really delighted with it. I love the color, the shape, the halo, and the type of doubling it features.

CLOWN'S CABARET was new for me last year, and I was suprised by the highly saturated color since the Salters describe it as cream pink and show a light rose pink flower in their catalog. It's a very different looking bloom, and was a vigorous rebloomer last year. This year with the drought and the wacky weather, who knows?
