Sings the Blues is one of my last ones to bloom

{{gwi:874024}}

Final Touch will be the last to bloom, & should bloom tomorrow. Still have a lot blooming, but many are on their last buds. I do have rebloom scapes coming up on several, & see new ones every day it seems.

ngraham,
That is a lovely one. The problem is, we want them to bloom all year (same thing for our iris).

Rebloom is wonderful and takes a little of the sting out. Same boat. So of course, I'm cruising daylily sites and enjoying everyone's pictures. Getting my fix that way.

I like the last one. Such a bright pinkish color (at least on my monitor it looks bright pink). Julia

Such pretty flowers!!! I agree with everyone else. I used to live in Fountain Valley. My babies were under the deck (covered), but in full south facing sun. I also kept it out of the rain as much as possible (but still in the sun). They rarely dropped leaves, would continue growing them, some would even start to push inflows again when we'd have warm spells. If you can find a nice covered south facing area, in which they get full sun all day, I'd put them there and leave them. I also lived in Newport Beach (where it's overcast almost year-round), and my plants did fine outside. Even when it was hailing and freezing. I never even knew I was supposed to "winterize" them until I moved to Oregon this past July. Good luck. I hope they keep blooming. I know a handful of my adopted out plants are still blooming a lot.

April they are lovely both on the bush and in the vase - really have to get some vases. Your presentation is beautiful. It started snowing this evening. I got mine in just in time and posted some pics on Sara's post the-last-bouquet? As far as winter waiting goes - not my favourite time of the year and hope we don't get too much of that white stuff!! Will have to get through it somehow but there is always gardenweb and all of you to chat with during the long cold winter:) Sharlene

You've certainly had your plate full this year and I for one have missed all your wonderful pictures throughout the season. I hope that at least your sister is on the mend so you can concentrate on just one person at a time..........Don't remember you showing the oldie Betty Warren Woods before. She still is a pretty thing. Blazing Saddles, and the Color of Wonderful are also looking great.......Outside of the tornado that ripped through here a few miles from me last Saturday, our August weather has also been better then normal. I was just about to shoot myself from the heat and humidity, when this less hot weather showed up (high 80's). I'm hoping for a long Indian Summer..............Maryl
