LIGHT OF THE WORLD

LIGHT OPERA - first opportunity to take a pic.

PREDICTION - first opportunity to take a pic

WILD SUMMER WIND -

DELICATELY YOURS

PLUM FOOLISH - first decent opening as others were splotchy and this year the color is very deep.

I'll do another post on multiples as this is getting long.

Another beautiful group! I like Prediction (I love that color combination), Earth and All Stars, and Science of Mind (I love the watermarks). Pretty Desirable and Make It Snappy are beautiful too.

I think that last not fancy daylily is really pretty. And with 40 buds its certainly a winner. At least in my book, it is! I like your first group shot with the dark then the light and then the darker colors all in a row. It's a tie for favorite for me between JORDAN VERHEART and ASIAN EMASSARY. They are both such stunners I couldn't choose between them. All the other blooms are pretty too.

Wow, your Mokan Butterfly has way darker of an eye than mine ever did! Beautiful! I should have given it some more time! Too bad about Pirate King is right! If it would get it's act together, it would be beautiful! Please keep us up to date on what you find out thru your research. I just love the colors of Light Of The World, that color pink just pops!

RED SLEEVED WARRIOR - hasn't been too good this year. Lack of scapes, buds and definitely is falling behind BACK TO THE FUCHSIA - still going. CAPACITY FOR WONDER - Nice trio today LIGHT OF THE WORLD - it has had numerous flushes of blooms opening. This was taken this morning. BERMA ABERCROMBIE - still going SCIENCE OF MIND - I think it is finally winding down. FIRE ON THE MOUNTAIN - this morning another round of open blooms. I've decided to divide it this year. OH GREAT ONE - it has shaped up after the first couple of openings and now it is almost done. I think I should stop here. I still have a couple more that haven't opened yet and one that I was waiting for in the holding bed area that the deer nipped off some of the buds. We have a doe with her fawn hanging around so I assume it was them that decided to dine on my daylilies in those beds. Julia

Really nice picture of South Seas. So many people praised it years ago that I got one and can't imagine being without it now. It's blooming as I type.....Paige's Pinata always gets me. Every time I see your name I try and remember it's name. One of these days I may find room for it. I do like it quite a bit.......I may have grown your yellow noid years ago. A friend claimed it and I reluctantly let it go. I'll try and find the name and check back with you......Maryl

Plants look healthy and well watered, with lots of buds. Make It Snappy and Pretty Desirable are two that caught my eye.

Great group! I love the looks of Make It Snappy - I'm on Judy's waitlist for it, hopefully will get it in the spring.

Pretty Desirable is my favorite of these. I saw it in person at Dick's. His had about 5 or 6 way branching and an unbelievable amount of buds & blooms. The flowers were really huge!

Beautiful flowers with beautiful colors--wish my camera would do what yours does. Always had a thing for your Flaming Wildfire, and Earth And All Stars, Pretty Desirable, Mean Green, and Delicately Yours make the fav list.
