Haven't posted any for a few days, so
Comments (12)Debra, it is a bit hard to say how well it could do. I originally had it planted by a shrub that quickly overshadowed it. It did OK, the blooms looked good but below average bud count. I left it there a couple of years & moved it last fall. It looks MUCH better this year & has lots of buds. Seems to be a bigger clump too. It is listed as a mid late, I don't have many actual "late" daylilies, but this is blooming with those. It is listed as a rebloomer, & I know it did rebloom for me last year when it was in the shade. Hoping for good things from it now. Really, I don't think the photos do it justice! I like Neon Rainbow too, Mantis, but it is not one I would really recommend based on how it is here. I got this one 4 or 5 years ago as a single fan. It bloomed the following spring & developed another fan which disappeared in summer with the heat. Same thing following year. This year the 2nd fan appeared again, but it managed to bloom this spring, so hopefully it will hold on this time. It is holding one of the better spots in my garden too, where it gets additional water when it needs it, fertilizer, etc. Rita, Orange Bounty is not fancy or anything, but it is one of my late bloomers, although it is listed as mid season for some reason. It usually doesn't start blooming til early July. This year it had a couple of fans that bloomed in early June with my earliest ones though,bloomed shorter than usual though. I thought that might be all it was going to do, but come July the rest of the fans broke out in bloom. Thanks Linda, this is the 2nd year for Sings the Blues & it is looking much better than it did last year. I was so happy when that seedling first bloomed, & I still like it but would like to see it with more buds....See MoreIt's been a month and peony buds still haven't opened
Comments (4)Cold weather seldom bothers peonies. In fact they need a good cold period in order to grow properly. Certainly the lack of sun could definitely be the problem. Competing with too many other plants around them isn't helpful. A long-time peony grower suggested I not plant my new peonies too close to a Virbunum. It also could be that they need a good dose of a good organic fertilizer like Espoma's Plant Tone, some Green Sand, and Super Phosphate if they haven't been encouraged in a long time. Good luck!...See MoreYikes--I haven't seen a snake in a month?
Comments (3)By drought, I meant a drought in sightings rather than dry weather, although dry weather does make snake finding more difficult. It has been hot which also works against finding snakes in abundance. I just need to look after dark. I have seen over 300 snakes this year, just none in the last month. Here are my totals to date: My snake totals so far for 2005: 345 snakes, 20 species [24 subspecies]: 191 Prairie Ringneck Snakes, 26 Common Garter Snakes (25 Eastern/Red-Sided Intergrade, 1 Red-Sided), 23 Lined Snakes, 22 Eastern Yellowbelly Racers, 15 Northern Water Snakes, 12 Milk Snakes (7 Central Plains, 3 Red/Central Plains Intergrade, 2 Red), 9 Midland Brown Snakes, 8 Osage Copperheads, 8 Prairie Rattlesnakes, 8 Western Ribbon Snakes, 6 Great Plains Rat Snakes, 4 Black Rat Snakes, 3 Blotched Water Snakes, 3 Common Kingsnakes (2 Speckled/Desert Intergrade, 1 Speckled), 2 Flatheaded Snakes , 1 Northern Redbelly Snake (red phase), 1 Timber Rattlesnake (Western phase), 1 Eastern Hognose Snake, 1 Western Worm Snake, 1 Western Plains Garter Snake...See MoreHaven't posted lately so here's a few from Ga way!
