Beautiful blooms! LOVE ON A WIRE really got my attention. What a stunning color and I love that small white edge. It is my favorite of the batch. I also really liked BORN TO RUN. Looking beautiful today.

I like the WESTBOURNE LITTLE LAMB. A nice creamy background with that big wine/reddish eye on it and a nice green throat. Yummmy.

I'm glad you didn't throw away Love On A Wire it's a lovely color all your others are beautiful also.
Linda

Everything looks lovely, as always. AIN'T MISBEHAVIN' and LOVE ON A WIRE are 2 I don't remember seeing before, and they are both fabulous. BORN TO RUN sure is pretty when it behaves. Really too bad it isn't reliable. I think if it were in my garden, the occasional good bloom would just make it that much more frustrating.

Love the pic of Tyrolean Treasure. I am going to have to add more Molovans to the garden. I think the bitone is really pretty, and I like the fact that it is a late bloomer. Avedon

The bitone Tyrolean Treasure is really nice. Great picture of Desperado Love.

There you go again with more tempting photos! And that photo of 'Born to Run' came just in time because my order from Maryott's came today, and lo and behold, that was one of my bonuses. I was glad to see this new stunning photo of it because it was a bonus I had hinted for, then when I heard you were having problems with it I thought "Oh, no...maybe I don't really want it". The photo of it today reinforces why I wanted it in the first place. So, so stunning!
I also am madly in love with that 'Tyrolean Treasure'. What a beauty. And another one I especially like is 'Ain't Misbehavin' but then I would gladly take any one of the others off your hands...haha. Beautiful photos, as always.
Thank you so much.

Celeste

Debra,
As always, your photos are fabulous!

Love on a Wire is a real Beauty! I am going to have to add Born to Run! A beauty! I also really the American Doll duo, but Francis of Assisi is the one I love the most today.

Today I like the pinks, especially American Doll and Ain't Misbehavin. So how do you think American Doll would fare this far north?

LOVE ON A WIRE, and BORN TO RUN are just gorgeous.They are all gorgeous, but those two really stands out to me.

Jean

American Doll is so very pretty! I like Ain't Misbehavin, too. You are doing something right to get a good bloom on Born To Run - I haven't seen one good bloom on it yet here in our garden. Francis of Assisi always blooms down in the foliage for me. It's getting ready to bloom, and I'm hoping it does better in its new surroundings.

Nancy

Thanks to all of you who gave me positive comments on Born to Run, but 1 out of 16 blooms so far isn't really very good. It has set several seed pods. Maybe I'll have better luck with its kids.

Rita, Jean and Linda - Love On A Wire is nicer than I remembered from last year. Today's bloom was the ffo, and I really liked the color and the form.

Julia - Westbourne Little Lamb's eye is a true red, although the veining may look wine colored. It's so well budded and well-branched this year compared to last. But the scapes are still shorter than registered. It's such a cheerful flower.

Casey - I'll take every good bloom I can get from Born To Run. It may be one of those daylilies that only looks good grown in a greenhouse. That's where I first saw it growing, and the blooms were flawless.

Celeste - I hope Born To Run will do great for you. I've seen lots of photos of it looking pretty.

Chris - I have no idea how American Doll would do as far north as you are. It had a slow start in my garden. But here in it's third year, its really clumped up and the scapes are tall and well-budded.

Avedon, Cindy and Celeste - Tyrolean Treasure is a very nice bitone and a strong grower. It's one flaw is a propensity for scape blast.

Nancy - Francis of Assisi is not as tall as it should be where I have it growing, but so far no flowers are actually down in the foliage. The blooms are floating right on top. I'm sorry to hear you've had trouble with Born to Run, too.

Debra

Love that Westbourn Little Lamb... I am really into the "whites" this year and with that happy eye it is just stunning.

Thanks for posting all the great pics!

Alexa

Debra, always like to read your comments about the growth
habits of the daylilies. This is so helpful, especially to a "newbie" like me, who is just getting into daylilies. I think branching and bud count is important, and you supply a lot of that info. You have also given me information about Tyrolean Treasure that will help me decide if it is worth trying. Beautiful flowers don't necessarily mean good plants. I have found that out already and I am trying to be smarter about what I buy. I always read your posts, for I am bound to find out something that will be helpful in the garden. Thanks again. Avedon

Alexa - Thanks Alexa! W. Little Lamb' eye is what drew me to it. The petal color is light yellow.

Avedon - Glad I can help with the growth information. Sometimes those pretty faces are just that with not much garden value. Tyrolean Treasure is a dormant, so I'm not sure it will grow well in your zone. It needs to have several weeks where temps are freezing or below to grow a big crown and have good performance.

Debra

FRANCIS OF ASSISI is usually much taller here, I think you are right it's just not in a good place. The others look really good. I just counted I have 5 blooms today 3 are new plants from North Carolina. Peak will be late here this year.
