Gorgeous, gorgeous Purple Maze. It gets my vote for favorite! Cosmic Kaleidoscope still looks good to me, even for being out in the sun all day. And I was going to pick Brazen Bandit for favorite until I saw Purple Maze. So they all look pretty.

Thanks Rita. Re-bloom has added a lot to this weird season. Here is Sabine Bauer...that has never re-bloomed for me before: I meant to post it, and it is sure a pretty bloom:

Some spring blossoms in my garden.........

Thanks folks, :) glad you're enjoying my gardens. I order my plant markers from Paw Paw Everlast Label Co.and Eon Label Co. and I use the Avery weatherproof labels #5520 on the markers. I also use a nursery marking pen that is waterproof and sunproof which I get from EON. Yes the tree in the upper left of the daylily bed photo is a magnolia and there is nothing actually planted underneath it. I have Munson daylilies surrounding it. I will eventually have to move them as the tree grows, but it's a slow grower, so they'll be ok for a while yet. :) Phillip, that purple "tree" is a wisteria, I just keep it pruned to grow like a tree rather than letting it climb on anything.

Love them Lainey, and I really need PS also, but I need SCB even more! I can see now, there's a new bed in my very near future. I'm finding so many on these posts that I am going to have to add to my garden. Thanks for sharing, and keep them coming. Jan

Do re-bloomers really re-bloom?
Q
Comments (7)
I appreciate your responses. I guess I better try dividing my Stellas and Happy Returns, although some of them have been divided in the past because I wanted more plants--and I don't remember that they necessarily re-bloomed any better. Maybe they needed more water also. Would it help to divide them now? Or should I wait until early spring? I wouldn't mind also having a reddish or purplish daylily that re-bloomed well. Any suggestions? Kate

Peppers on some, not even blossoms on others!

I was thinking I really have to put the Hot Portugals in the garden, they are getting so tall I'm sure the 1-gal pot is too small for them now. Maybe the HH too, though those were supposed to be "compact" and I was thinking I could overwinter them inside. I can take some of the Thai out of the garden and swap them out with the porch peppers. I'm running out of room! The Thai seem to be a smaller variety (am I right?) and they're pretty, though not as rare as HH (which I wanted to save in case I can't find seed in the future), so maybe I'll overwinter them instead. Funny, the Sweet Bananas just aren't doing well (first ones were in peat pots, I tore off the bottoms when transplanting but they just didn't seem to grow *down*, the roots were trying to get through the sides of the pots and just stopped when they hit the peat, didn't even curl around). Even the ones I took entirely out of the peat pots and planted directly in the garden. King of the North bells also grew very slowly, they were the smallest ones coming out of the greenhouse and most of them are still tiny though a few took off the past couple of weeks. Rainbow Whopper bells are huge plants with no flowers. Depending on how they do, I may decide to just grow Chablis as the only bell and devote the rest of the garden to hot peppers next year. I'm very disappointed in King of the North, it was supposed to be good for cold climates, and June (other than a couple days at the beginning) was cool, but it was also wet. July has just been a scorcher the past 2 years (this year drier than last), if this is how New England weather is going to be from now on I'll have to switch to hot peppers! I figured too much N since I thought the heat should have "stressed" all the peppers in the garden into producing. Thanks - we'll be patient (DH and DS did eat 1 green Hot Portugal from an Agway plant, said it was OK, hotter than a jalapeno but not terribly hot. I'm waiting for the porch Portugals to ripen.).

Such gorgeous rebloomers! My favorites are Passion District, Johnny Cash and Mary's Baby! All three are just stunning blooms.

Another vote for Johnny Cash from me...the edge is so very pretty and distinctive. I like Size Counts too.

Cheers!

the kaleidescope one looks great in both times of day. I'm so jealous of that one!! ha... also really like that threesome of purple maze... I'm researching where to buy me one even though it's tet I might have to get it just for the uniqueness factor for my "collection". thanks for posting, great pics.

Not sure how I missed this post yesterday other than I've been so busy but I'm glad I checked it out. You sure have some gorgeous ones and rebloom at that! Standouts for me are Mary's Baby, Johnny Cash, Passion District and Arctic Lace. But Purple Maze is stunning in a clump. I still can't get over the concept that you are already having REBLOOMs to show us when mine are still lowly scapes waiting for their ffo's. At least I have the glorious roses to keep me content til then.

Sabine Bauer looks lovely there. I think it likes it more south. I used to have it but sent mine south as I only got a very limited amount of perfect blooms on it, the rest had something wrong. I lost my patience with it.

Very pretty! Plus they are reblooming, great daylilies! Love Arctic Lace, and Passion District, and Size Counts is beautiful. And a tie between two for favorites, dark beauties Johnny Cash and Mary's Baby!

Beautiful daylilies. Just wondering which you like better or does better for you: Johnny Cash or Mary's Baby. They are both stunners......Maryl

Thanks everyone. You can well imagine that if I had a tail I would be wagging it to celebrate having these blooms when I would normally be down to just a few.

Debra, I really like the dark ones as well as the hot ones...in fact, I guess I like them all.

Thanks Jean, it is a pretty one.

Ellie, I finally got a good one from Ridnaugt's. It has never looked back and took off like gangbusters. It has increased dramatically and has bloomed very well.

Anika, Size Counts is another bodacious bloomer...have to love it, since it put up half a dozen rebloom scapes too and the blooms are a good 7.5 to 8 inches across.

Thanks Nate. I have lots of favs too.

There has been discussion previously about whether a heavy bloom year one year results in a much lighter one the next year. This doesn't always happen here, but it is a noticable trend. That being said, Maryl, Mary's Baby is a beauty, but not doing as well this year as last. Johnny Cash has put up a lot of scapes with multiple blooms and reblooms, so it is better than Mary's Baby this year. It is also in a much better location...MB needs moved.

Dean, it is a new one but I really, really like it. I am rooting a prolif from it.

Rita, I have never had many blooms on it either, but this has been a really good year for it and it is a beautiful bloom.

Celeste, I should be enjoying your blooms when my fade out and I need blooms.

Thanks for the reply. I have Mary's Baby and love her and was wondering if I needed Johnny Cash. From your report I think I probably may add JC too....Maryl

A belated response, Kay. Cosmic Kaleidoscope (well, now I know how to spell Kaleidoscope! Isn't this forum educational?) and Purple Maze are my favorites today. I Googled CK and up came a photo of one of its offspring, Kaleidoscope Puzzle, and it is even more astonishing than CK.
