Still some bloom

Marcia, mine does not get a chance to spread. It is in the middle of the garden and DH loves to till. Sometimes I wish it would spread a bit. I think I might dig some of it up and plant it out in the field away from the reaches of the tiller. When I was growing up there was a big patch on the side of the road. I just loved it. Honalee, I usually collect some seeds. Let me know if you want some. Marg

hey t hanks for the encouragement on the fountain. I've always like these two little blue pots and never knew what to do with 'em. not I really like the water running over the edge of both. I also really like "alley cat blues". It was an extra from Marietta's and isn't it funny how you'll get an extra and you didn't realize you would like it so much? sometimes the extras I get are just stuck in dirt until the next club daylily sale. and other times. KEEPERS! so far Midnight SMoke RIngs and the Alley Cat BLues are my favorite extras I got that I was so glad to have. anyway thanks for the comments. I got to get back outdoors and move some sprinklers etc etc

Great Blooms!! And I'm jealous of all the space... Put in a few blanket flowers this year and they carried on like crazy and then they died completely back and then a few weeks later new growth started poking its head up through the mulch and their blooming again. Cosmos are awesome, I direct sow them just as the irises are starting to bloom so that by the time most of the daylilies have done their thing the cosmos start blooming and carry me thru till the first hard frost. What you've learned from Karol, I completely agree with her, breed from good stock and things can only get better from there.. which probably explains my psuedo obsession with knowing as much as I possibly can about a cultivars genetic background. Granted, most unwanted characteristics have been hopefully bred out... but it does help to know as much as possible about prospective parents so you're not as surprised when a cross of red X purple throws a few screaming yellow or orange seedlings. Again, totally jealous of the space you have to work with and what you've done so far looks awesome! ~Donald~

still waiting on some plants to come up

My daylilies have lots of bugs on them too. I thought they were aphids too but the color was beige so wasn't sure. I had aphids for sure on my sedums a couple of weeks ago stunting the growth so I put seven dust on them, so far so good. Today I was looking around at my irises and had several about to bloom for the first time by a culvert. Some kind of animal had been digging in the culvert and broke off two of the irises. I'm still crying! I got a lot of new ones last year and didn't expect them to bloom but several of them are and are really pretty. My cannas have been coming up for 2 or 3 weeks now and are growing good. I have some dahlias to plant and have planted a couple already. One of them is up already. I think I lost a few hostas over the winter. Last year I lost a couple too. I have plenty of voles or moles or something and an armadillo. I have some new ones that didn't have time to get very big last year that are going crazy now. I can't believe how quick they're growing! I think I lost my specialty Elephant Ears too except for the dark stemmed one. I really loved the illustris and black magic. I dug them and put them under the house in peat but they were pretty much dried up when I got them out. Nancy

This seems promising for me. MRIB & VL still haven't scaped yet & if they just blooming for you now...

Michael Miller is one that I've been wanting. Laura Harwood would have to be my favorite though.

MRIB is easily a favorite. It seems to be vigorous and blooms well here.
Memories of Saratoga is by Phil Reilly, and does very well under full sun. Really gorgeous at the end of the day.
Big surprise was Laura Harwood. Big, at least 7" blooms and gorgeous dark colors that are sunfast.
Thank you all.
