Lots O' Pictures From TX - Part 2

14 years ago

Zahadoom

I have only had this one for a few months and it has been blooming like crazy already. The first couple of blooms were kind of disappointing but it is getting better and better.

China Bride

Little Trooper

Got this one from Floyd Cove a few months ago and I love it. It started blooming right away.

Aztec Headress

Got this one as a bonus and I didn't think I would like it but it has really surprised me.

Little Blue Bell

After seeing my friend Michelle's (a.k.a. Fairysoapgirl) picture of LBB, I just had to have this one. I love it.

Orange Grove

Unknown Seedling

I finally have different parts of my computer working and uploaded the picture I took of the wonderful things that Purplemoon sent me. The picture she posted was only a few things from the treasure chest! I had trouble fitting everything into one picture but I finally did it. Some of the things that weren't present in her photo were the glass squiggles, the glass seashells and all the bits and pieces for outfitting a fairy house. Now if I could just get my butt in gear to make it! lol! I just love it all! Thanks again, Karen!

Jan, you will absolutely love Sherry Candy. It has quickly become one of my favorites and it is new in my garden. Dot, I am glad to hear that Goldenzelle is a rebloomer. I don't think I could ever get tired of it. I saw your picture of Christopher Moody and I want it now! It is beautiful. I will have to save up for that one. Marea, alot of my daylilies are still new to the garden and I am really surprised how nice some of the first blooms are turning out. I am keeping my fingers crossed on Hurricane Swirls. My Purple Mound and Create Your Dream already have scapes! Can you believe it? Rita, glad to hear you are starting to have blooms. You have some really nice one's. Looking forward to seeing those pictures. Awesome Blossom and Chocolate Cherry Dreams are growing like weeds here. Cindy, my first couple of blooms on Marietta Magic weren't that great but the more it bloomed, the better they started looking. Dianne

Thanks palmcirtusbananavaz7! Dennis, I think the largest majesty I saw was in the part 1 of the pics. Im trying to remember if I saw a larger majesty palm because I think I did, but their definitely weren't too many large majesty palms. But the majesty palms I did see looked very healthy! Thanks for looking! -Alex

Nice daylilies! Especially Little Trooper & that last seedling, really like those colors. Little Blue Bell is one I want too, nice pic of it.

I think AH makes a great transitional plant in the garden from purples/lavenders to yellows.
The seedlings are eye catching.
CB appears to be a really nice pink. Does it always bloom so clear?
Thanks for sharing.

Zahadoom is getting ready to bloom for me, it can be splotchy at times. Born to Run never has a decent flower for me, it is blooming now.
But Orange Grove really put on a show and it is getting ready to rebloom. It is so happy looking.

You have quite a few beauties on all three threads, but my favorites are on this one -- I love ORANGE GROVE and your two purple seedlings.

All of them look fantastic, your getting a great show in your daylily garden. I have to go with the oldie but goodie CHINA BRIDE as my favorite daylily of the batch. Its one I also have and it always looks great in bloom.

Jan, Chris and Linda, I got the seedlings from a friend of mine who lives in WA that sells daylilies. She sent me a few of her seedlings this spring to try out here in TX. She wanted to see what they would look like here in zone 8. After seeing those seedlings bloom, I told her I would be her guinea pig anytime!!! LOL..

Vickie, I think little Trooper looks really close to the picture on the Floyd Cove website. You just never know if it is going to look just like the hybridizer's picture or not.

Julia, China Bride sometimes has a little more color than the picture I posted. When I took the picture, it was in the heat of the day in the sun. I think the sun washes out a little of the color sometimes.

Dot, I am looking forward to Orange Grove reblooming. I got a few blooms out of it already but not many. Zahadoom on the other hand has been blooming quite a bit.

Rita, it sounds like your show is just starting. I hope you have lots of beautiful blooms this year.

Although I'd be pleased to have any of them in my collection, I've got to go along with Rita on China Bride. Love the form, color (even if it has faded a bit) and the ribbing.

OMG - that last seedling is gorgeous! I'd love to have a couple of fans of that if you ever get enough to share with a fellow Texan!

Wow - every time I come to this forum I find another set of your mouth watering photos!
Every one of these are just beautiful !! My top picks are your Zahadoom, which looks so luxurious & healthy & Little Trooper has just enough red in the purple to be utterly ravishing in my eyes *grin* And of course I love those sdlgs, too. Gonna be fun to watch them progress!

So glad that Purple Mound & CYD are scaping for you without missing a beat! Got my first Purple Mound flower here today - in the pouring rain...

Thanks everyone. Nancy, I would be happy to share a fan or two when I have enough increase. I only got this one a few months ago and it is just one fan. So, I am not sure how fast it multiplies. I am thinking about getting some of that BAP and see how it works on increasing daylilies.

Marea, would love to see a picture of your Purple Mound in bloom.

Dianne, The saturated color on Little Trooper is amazing! I like all your seedlings, but the last one is probably my favorite.

I must have missed this thread when I couldn't scroll, seemingly fixed by the way.

That last seedling is remarkable! Holy cow!
