Everything's popping out. Including the bugs, b/s, mildew and a new problem for me... rust! Never had a rose get rust until a yr or so ago. Now it's all over the place. Yuck!

And a sparrow sitting on chunks of one of the trees we had cut down before the septic ordeal. Lots of birdies out too! I love 'em!

Comments (9)Jerry Hyatt: Hard to mistake this one for any other one. This is a great perfoming plant. SKINNY DIPPER CLOWN PARADE: Prairie Pink Lace: Outstanding ruffling. Never hangs up. LIMELIGHT AND LAVENDER: A Maryland hybridizer introduced this one and I would visit his garden several times a year. I never grew any of his intros because he was into UFOs/Spiders and I wasn't at the time, I prefered his wife's intros. He passed away a couple of years ago and someone was selling some of his plants. With the green throat, I have dreams of making crosses to other strong green throated dips.

Comments (9)I know that many in our little group would consider 90 degrees hot, but this mid AM we had a very brief "cool" spell come through with a temperature of 90. I thought I'd see what a few of my "faders" looked like in what I consider a milder temperature then usual. After looking at my daylilies, it added weight to a theory about color/substance retention and high temperatures. It seems to be tiered, with most daylilies looking good under 90. Then there is another tier for those that can take 90-95 heat and still be colorfast/sunfast. Over 95 is when the real iron men show up............ Fortunately there are lots of folks who are able to enjoy daylilies in milder temperatures then we have and I get to see many really pretty daylilies..........I like your Imperial decree. I really don't care for a petal that slicks or darkens, so that's a big plus on it....Prairie Pink Lace has the form I like so much. Very pretty.....................Maryl...See More
