Blooms, Blooms, and More Blooms!

12 years ago

Here are some pics taken from over the past week :) Even some of mine that are still potted and in bands are beginning to bloom! There's a couple that I think may get moved from their pots into the ground if it rains this week..

Enjoy!

YIPEE! Florida sunshine brings happy daylilies! I've been awaiting your photos since I knew you would be one of the first of the year to post. I always like your selections. I notice you grow a lot of the small daylilies. They are so cute! I have a few myself but not as many as you. Thank you for sharing these because it is COLD and snowy here today and not looking at all like spring. I LOVE Spacecoast Color Scheme! That is one I wanted to get from Maryotts last year but was put off by the price. (Hoping it goes down some for my budget because I adore that one and want it badly). I also like the bright, cheerfulness of Yellow Umbrellas but they are all darling and a ray of sunshine right now! Just what I needed to try to forget about all the white stuff outside. Celeste

Wow! I love that you have so many blooming already. These are all wonderful and pure indulgence for the soul. Just what I needed to try to be optimistic that spring is around the corner.....even if that corner is covered in snow...lol. It is so hard to pick a favorite anytime of the year, but right now being so starved for daylilies they ALL are my favorites. The color of Hot Scheme makes me feel warm all over. And there is no way you can bore me with your pictures. I am starving for MORE so please keep them coming! Thanks Linda. Celeste

Beth - Those roses are gorgeous! I've been considering Sedona, because I love the unique color, that picture is helping me decide. I really like the 777 Rose, Showtime, Lavender Lady and Farfalla. Your Plum Velvet is lovely too, I think it is great that you have roses that are not even in commerce. They are all very nice! This post was edited by Sara-Ann on Mon, Sep 15, 14 at 7:07

Thanks everyone! ac91, my Carding Mill starts off a darker shade of apricot and fades to the color you see in the picture. I love the color at all stages. rosiewells, I do not have my pole wrapped in wire, but I wish I had thought of that. This is an old telephone pole that is not used anymore. There is a newer one next to it. I simply put some nails in it and tied string from one nail to the next. It seemed to work. Now I just sort of wrap Peggy into herself. It's still a work in progress. I am just loving this time of year!

I love your Dream Weaver and Lullaby. How's the prickles on Scepter d'Isle? It's very windy here and I'm reluctant to get a rose that might shatter easily, although I'm tempted by Scepter's famous myrrh scent. Thank you, Tammy, for showing these exotic roses - I would never had known about them - I love the photography!

Strawberry, I just went out and looked at Scepter'd Isle and it really almost thornless :) ...at least at its current size in a 1g container. ...and its does have a VERY strong scent! I think I'm really going to like it, and I bet you would too.
