That's a good picture of Barney with a lot of swagger. Vintage Bourdeaux seems well budded for you. You must be at about peak.

Thanks all! ngraham - the good news is, VE multiplies like crazy. When she gets it right, the flowers are amazing. farmerbell - I didn't like that seedling when it first opened, but the blooms are getting better, and the bud count and branching are out of this world. In addition, it had instant rebloom this year. PP is my little beauty. Love her. Jessica - can you believe that some of them are just starting their first blooms? I got a bunch that are late and very late, so I could extend my season. Looks like it is working! Stargate Explosion just put up its first scape! Yippee! Nikki - I posted about the photo problem on your Star Child post.... hope it works out! I like PP too! okbt - she is a hardy little bugger... even though I slid down the hill and wiped out all 3 fans last fall, she came back beautifully and gave me quite a show. Love PP. Debra - thanks!! :o) MM is new to my garden (this spring), and is doing so well! Got another bloom this morning. Hoping the colors get just a mite brighter with settling. Gotta do my yoga, then I will try to post those Star Child photos... Thanks for all the kind words.

Some very pretty blooms in your post. I especially like the seedling clump, and Greywood's Cowgirl Cassanova. Bluegrass Memories is a distinctive bloom and a favorite of mine too. kay

Those are all very nice with the last one being my favorite. I like it when the form is very even like all of these are. I have some, (Becky Lynn and Buttered Popcorn come to mind) where it looks like a tongue hanging out. And while I love BL and BP, I prefer the uniform look. Vickie

Your Malaysian Market place is so much prettier than mine, I think I need to move it to a less crowded spot. Prediction is a beauty too. Peak was 2 weeks ago here, but we still have some very lovely blooms.

Wonderful blooms! Greywoods Goodnight Irene jumped out at me because it's been on my wish list in the past, but I've never gotten around to buying it. How does that one do for you? Others I especially liked were Spacecoast Blastoff and Thieving Magpie. How are those in the performance department? Once again, Robin's Tuition makes a gorgeous clump. That one is a Yost, isn't it? Does anyone know if Yost Gardens still sells plant? The website is still acessible, but it doesn't seem to have been updated in five or six years.

I'd give a nickel if one of your purple/lavender daylilies would look as good in my garden. They just are gorgeous. Celtic Veins, Thieving Magpie, Barney are so beautiful. You take glorious pictures of them all......Maryl

Robin's Tuition is by Sharon Fitzpatrick, who used to live near Canal Winchester, Ohio. Yost no longer has a website.

Debra, The three you asked about all do well here, no issues. Nice clumps with loads of scapes and blooms, no winter problems either (I never mulch so it's survival of the fittest).

Your photos are so good, every daylily looks so good to me. You ended with Thieving Magpie though, & that is such a great looking purple!
