If I didn't already have too many yellows I would definitely buy Lunar Empire.

The late bloomers bed is looking good. I don't usually favor double, but Ambrosia Rows is my favorite today. I like its colors and form. Lunar Empire and Bass Gibson are stunning today too! The Powow coneflowers are blooming so well for you. I have Powow White, but it doesn't seem as floriferous.

Christine, one thing I like about Isaac is that the blooms fade & drop off nicely, not turning into a slushy mess like some. I'm quite fond of that daylily. That is a tradescantia behind it, Bilberry Ice. Sarah, I'm not big on yellows really, but I love the yellow shading of Isaac. Bill Norris just blooms & reblooms, what's not to love about that :) Caribbean Eye Spy hasn't multiplied a lot for me so I don't have lots of scapes, but it rebloomed last year quite late in the season. Hoping it continues to do that. I like my lilies, Rita, you know that :) I'm wondering if the flower is extra huge because it put all its energy into just that one bud, or if it is normally that big. Guess I should look it up & see if they tell. For a dwarf lily, the bloom is as wide as the plant is tall. Thanks Celeste! It has been a sunny day, hasn't it. I was just getting ready to go outside & do some yard work, but it has clouded up & started to rain. DARN :) Debra, I am always moving plants around, but hate to move the ones that are really doing well where they are. I also hesitate to move one that may not be doing well, thinking if I move it I might set it back even more. I'm much to indecisive. Thanks Marg!

Nice bright yellows, my favorite is Black Eyed Stella. I always get it confused with my Black Eyed Susan daylily which had its first bloom here today. Like your Vernal Tutone too, & those wonderful lilies!

Rita, Primal Scream has really multiplied this year so I'm expecting a lot of blooms. I picked up some something to spray for thrips, I think it has helped. I've just sprayed the buds themselves though because I didn't want to kill any good critters. Still, I can see that newer buds are looking better, so blooms should improve. Maybe cicadas are doing some damage here, I hear them & see one occasionally, but not like I had expected from all the talk. Jason, I imagine My Melinda will do great for you. I have several clumps of it around the garden & need to divide again, it multiplies really fast. I really like Hillbilly Heart, it hasn't been blooming but 2 or 3 days, but each day it has had 4 or 5 blooms. I've always love the dark eyes on a dark red daylily like Velvet Eyes too, so striking I think. Kay, bloom is really picking up, just the last couple of days really. thanks everyone for your comments! Nancy

I love the way Hello Helen looks with Apache War Dance. They make a gorgeous combo for the late garden. Two Janes looks like a bright, happy pink for the end of the season. I hope you will be posting a photo of Sellstation Sunset soon. That's the Dale Thoms late I'm most interested in adding. Most of my lates are finished. My two Davisson lates are still going strong, along with Final Touch, which is bud building very well, and Royal Jester. Debra

Glad you're in better spirits today, Rita. There are many days this year when the camera doesn't come out for me, so you are not alone. I remember when I could be outside all day long, no matter the temp. Not any more! Hang in there...and I do enjoy the veggies.

I've not seen Ambrosia Rows before. Very interesting! Very pretty! In the old days, your picture would have sent me out to acquire it, but I am resisting. Ha.

I agree with Edward that Lunar Empire is a lovely yellow.

You did good today, Rita!

It is just that the heat has been oppressive. Well, not the heat but the heat and humidity combined. It is just as hot today, maybe two degress cooler but the humidity is down so I am working in the garden. I am a summer person and I don't mind summer weather until it gets overly oppressive. Yesterday was the worst!

Chris that daylily in the backround is Ruby Shadows.

Jean, Hearts Of Fire has been blooming for weeks and weeks. I think I I posted a picture of it once.

Its only July and that late bloomers bed is blooming. Each year the daylilies seem to start earlier and earlier. I used to have the late bloomers in August but now look. And summers seem to be hotter. Or maybe it's just my old age!

The late bed is looking good. Oddly enough, since I rarely like doubles, Ambrosia Row is very lovely. Grace Like Rain is a beauty, but Bass Gibson is my pick. that's a great photo of it too. Love the coneflowers. That's a favorite color in blooms for me.
Has it cooled off any yet?

I agree that the Pow Wow is terrific. So is Amrosia Rows. Does Lunar Empire ever have opening difficulty, as does its parent (Supreme Empire)?
