Vickie - Glad I could provide a gateway to the Land of Daylily Dreamin' for you. LOL Kay - Keep telling yourself that. Personally, I think everyone should grow Julie Newmar. Kathy - The camera I use is a Nikon D70 with a Sigma lens. Nancy - I saw your Applique on your thread and it's lovely. Hopefully no deer will scale a 10-foot fence for it. Debra

Thanks for the comments. Geechee Sunset was recommend several years ago by a former forum member. It has an unusual way of blooming very deep colors here in the beginning and then as more blooms open, they become lighter. It is a workhorse but this year it needs dividing along with Bahama Butterscotch and a few others. They start to crowd out other plants. No More Tears really surprised me this year with so many multiple blooms in the beginning. Julia

I always LOVE your posts because not only are the blooms gorgeous but you have a special talent at capturing their beauty with a camera. It is always a treat to open your threads. I feel your pain about the bugs. I am dealing with the slugs currently, as well as some type of small caterpillar on the roses. The JB's start up here around July 1st and continue to devour my roses til frost. On my true lilies, there is a horrible red beetle that will make holes in all the leaves and blooms if left unchecked. I very rarely spray or use chemicals because of all the birds nesting right now, hummingbirds, bees and butterflies. I had to use a dust on my lilies in early spring to stop the red beetles but other than that it is just a losing battle, especially with the JB's. Love that clump of Nutmeg Spice! Wowser! Celeste

Hey guys! Well, another gray day on the island, but Peg's post has got me thinking that I'll take a break and get some fresh air on the roof. Glad you are getting out of the hole the contractor dug for you! We had the contractor underprice our house by so much that we have been struggling to hang onto it. At the end of this month, we will know whether we can keep it or put it on the market... The office is kind of closed today since I'm the only one here, so wore trainers (tennies?...sneakers?...whatever everyone calls them...) to work, a tee shirt, and a hoodie. It's pretty amazing how clothes determine the amount of movement I do. I am all energized to file, clean the office and get things in order! ---Uh, wait, since DH is gone today, it MIGHT be THAT too! lol. Besh....((((((((((HUGS))))))))))))) Wodka - HUGS! Hope you are getting your walks in. Maddie: Keep on truckin', girl. I am planning a trip to another island. Getting away - even to another island - is a break from routine and work. And an excuse to explore and WALK! We're coming up on the weekend - WHAT ARE YOU DOING THIS WEEKEND?

Is Orange Clown a new one for you? I thought it was a late bloomer. No More Tears and Guns of Navarrone are my favorites of these. The other purples look great too!

I have had Orange Clown for two years. My late indicator is North Wind Dancer and it is no where near blooming. It will bloom until September. Flying Trapeze and Constantinople have not started yet either.

They are all so beautiful. The color and edge on Major General is great. The color of No More Tears is one of my favorites and Yukon Spring just makes me smile.

There's not one of those daylilies that I wouldn't welcome into my garden (I bet they'd be shocked at the temperature difference though(107 today). I love the color of Barny, and Ashwood Still Night looks so deep and velvety. But then there is Major General that looks luscious too. No, no. I just can't choose my favorite of these...Maryl

Do not forget Orange Clown. It is such a cheerful one! Your photos are magnificent as usual, Edward. You make them look good regardless. Barney is beautiful.. Guns of Navarrone is the best I have seen of it. Major General...makes you want to order it, and so does No More Tears. Wonderful blooms.
