I saw this beauty blooming right in the front yard near my front door. The scapes are very tall and the flower has really beautiful heavy ruffled edges.

I know I have Lori Goldston in my yard somewhere....I have tag need to find the plant...but according to what I looked up it has a gold ege (this one doesn't). Then I also have a tag for blissful beauty (but that description is holly red, and this flower isn't).

If anyone has any ideass please let me know because I remember everything I buy so if I see the name, I'll remember it.

and another

This is very close to the true color in the garden.

Maureen, have you ever bought Blue Pink Beauty? That one sure looks a lot like it to me.

What a very pretty room! I second all the advice to take your time and to get something temporary for the time being. do you have a rug you are going to use in that room from which you could pull a color for the drapes? My two specific pieces of advice are to ignore the window to the far right that is next to the fireplace. I would maybe do drapes along the long wall, and then blinds on the window next to the fireplace. I wouldn't do the same treatment on both as that would look a little awkward. the other piece of advice is to check out this blogpost. It is (almost) the best bit of design advice wrriteen anywhere about any decorating topic in my opinioin! http://cotedetexas.blogspot.com/2009/08/top-ten-design-elements-4.html She provides oodles of specific examples demonstrating why her advice makes sense. IMO nothing makes a room more cozy than drapes! good luck and keep us posted with what you decide. Here is a link that might be useful: Cote de Texas Curtain blog

Elderly cats do get kidney disease plus heart congestion, our 17 year old cat did and we gave medication, special foods and he hated it and was so thin. Talk about hard, I phoned and got an appointment and told my mom I did and started sobbing and she told me to cancel it. I did puzzled why? She said if its too hard, we won't do it. I said no, its time and I phoned back and my dad and I sobbed all the way there to the vet and then we had to wait while this lady had 4 cats to get checked and then it was our turn and the room they took us in was the same as they check the cats and there was others behind us and so it was a rushed goodbye and I didn't like that at all. We all sobbed and cried, he was my precious, I can still see him coming down the hallway upstairs in my parents place and him yelling his head off and I would say he needs his four hugs a day as he demanded them daily. He was my beloved and I miss him still alot and its been 6 years since we said goodbye. Its a huge gap in our lives when we lose our beloved pets, doesn't matter how little or how long they are with us, that bond is so deep and so strong. ((((((((((((((((((((((((((hugs)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Also look at Horton Brasses for dresser pulls. One great thing about that site is that you can search by what's called "boring size", that's the distance from the center of one hole to the center of the other for a two-screw or two-post pull. Their prices are very reasonable for the incredible quality. Your pulls look like classic rosette bail pulls and should not be too horribly difficult to either match or replace if you go to the right places. It looks like the pulls are the same on the desk - if you're really stuck you might remove all the bail pulls from the desk, use those to replace the missing pulls on the dresser, and replace the pulls on the desk with the closest ones you can find so that each piece is consistent (especially in finish/patina). Or vice versa. :-) Ball & Ball may also have what you need. I'm very jealous of the barrister bookcase. I do think you should replace the missing glass though, even if it doesn't match the old glass - the gaping hole would look pretty tacky.

it's so gorgeous, isn't it? i will make a few changes for my home, such as we are considering leaving off the center doors, since this will be the main dish cabinet. also i may add lower cabs and use my antique marble slab as a counter, with shelves above it for the dishes. i already know what i'll be putting in those shadow box side doors, and it will not be mono chromatic. still, the doors and cabs will be a cream colour to go with the marble, and the preimeter cabs around the kitchen will be darker with a lighter counbter. i love jerusalem gold limestone and would love to use that for counters, but the fragility of it worries me. i'm very pleased with my design, now to work on colours and materials--the fun stuff!! thanks for your encouragement, i must elarn to upload pics--it's the terminology which baffles me.

njmomma - hi, you could very well be right. I think the only place I bought from last year was the lily auction and I ordered 2 gaskins and 1 other -- which is not this one (I labeled it). And I don't believe either place gave me a bonus....so i'm stumped. Unless I had it from the year before and it didn't bloom until this year. the only place I've bought from the past couple years is Maryott's.

I'm not a fan of the over ruffly edges, but on this solid colored flower it's gorgeous! nice flower!!!

Very unusual color combination to my eyes. The contrast between the petal color and the throat color is striking and unusual. I think you should check to see if it's a dip or tet.

But in any case, it's one pretty daylily! I'd keep it!

I've grown both Blue Pink Beauty & Absolute Treasure for a few years ~ I don't think your beauty is either one of them.
Sure looks like a Stamile flower, I agree, & it looks familiar but...
