Some Clump Shots, FFOs, and FFE

5 years ago

Continuing to have lots of blooms with some nea finishing and new ones beginning:

FFE: Nectar of the gods... a gift plant...supposed to be a lot more orange and deep colored than this by their photo, but it does describe it as apricot and this is that color

FFO: Orchid Majesty:

FFO: Exquisitely Subversive

First Posting: Carnival in Brazil:

The always nice Ranger Bob:

Some clumps are s great they deserve multiple postings, Little Light of Mine:

Yard Shot from today:

This has been an excellent plant this year in its new home. Shake The Mountain:

This is a really good plant. It re-blooms and blooms for weeks. Purple Honey Creeper:

This is the tenth one, but today, there are too many clumps not to post a few extras even though I usually don't.

The beautiful Catastrophe Waitress:

Lovely! You have so many lovely ones today it is next to impossible to pick a favorite. Little Light of Mine has to be one of the most beautiful clumps I have ever seen.

Well Mantis, even the greenery was gone...I just accepted that it was not going to thrive, took up the label and forgot it..then here, three years later it puts up four scapes and starts blooming. We will see if it continues. When bought Shake the Mountain from CT daylilies, Chris was concerned that it was tiny and would not survive. obviously it did and it thrived. I moved it to a better place last year and it really seems to be happy....We will see. Abilene is doing well. It has pretty colors but is not my favorite, probably because the bloom is fairly small. Thank you Julia I posted a tiny fraction of them since most people don't have them blooming yet. and I don't want to wear everyone out. kay.

Heather, the inventor of the doorbell did not have Chihuahuas and apparently didn't have schnauzers either...There is no need. They announce a leaf blowing in the yeard. Brad, every bloom has been perfect from the first on Exotic Starfish, It is a nice size and I am tryly enjoying it. As I said Grape is MY Favorite Color was a very lucky gift plant. It is a pretty one. And anyone can see I love Judy Davisson's intros...Great Aunt Picklebottom is doing better this second year, taller and more blooms, and I look forward to the leap year...WRPD has always done very well here. Thank you for you comments...So tell me what month would you do best to get your Catastrophe Waitress baby? July ? august? September? silly thing finally finished so t is up to you to tell me what suits. kay

Kay, are you not surprised by how many UFs are in this post? See how you have influenced me? :) Sherry, I cant imagine having wind all the time! I guess your plants adapt! Spider Miracle has that nice green throat that makes it stand out. Nancy, No Boys Allowed has performed fairly well. This is year two for it so that is a limited assessment! Thanks Brad-after having Spider Miracle for several years I am beginning to appreciate it many more. Debra, DV has several buds on two scapes so I hope to see more of the clean blooms in our heat. It is a lovely shade of pink. NBA has been pinker than normal with the cooler mornings-I expect it will return to normal color in heat. Nancy-Pink Jeans has that pure, clean pink color I really like. Julia-pictures could not show how impressive Yellow Mammoth actually was. Those blooms were easily 10 inches!

Thank you, Sherry and Maryl, for looking and commenting on my post. That was the prettiest bloom FH has had, Sherry, but this is a first-year plant. I hate to see them bloom out, but it has been a great year. Maryl, Spoken in Parables has always been a tremendous bloomer in my garden and it is a rebloomer every year. I like to have a lot of colors and do a bit of changing either of plants or positions to get what I have in mind. I have been very pleasantly surprised in how well Rosemarie Louise is doing this first year, And like you, I seem to be drawn to Jellyroll Morton and can never pass the blooms without taking a photo. kay

Little Light of Mine is so massive! Is it just one clump? Or did you divide it and plant mini clumps together? It definitely wins the prize for most amazing clump. All the other clumps are gorgeous, especially Purple Honey Creeper and Shake the Mountains. Your pink prettiness clump is fabulous, but I don't think the name is Visual Appeal. I like your apricot Nectar of the Gods too!

Love your clump photos. Purple Honey Creeper is really pretty but so are the others as well. Your yard shot really displays those reds! And your EITV clump is huge for a new addition! Do you know mine is about a week away from blooming? Silly thing, it bloomed 6/2 last year and not even close to opening yet. Catastrophe Waitress has great color. Pretty shots, Kay.

Little Light of Mine is so impressive, mine has a ways to go before it will look like that. I need Ranger Bob-my husband's name is Bob. I may have to get Purple Honey Creeper too, it always looks so good for you. This forum is very dangerous

Another beautiful group. I love that Catastrophe Waitress shot. I have Light Of The World which is similar to Little Light Of Mine and it too does great here. Tons of blooms each year. Rambunctious Rosy looks great. I moved one of mine last fall to a new spot so I'm hoping it will do better.

Wonderful pictures Kay. Catastrophe Waitress is always a favorite for me and is on the list I shouldn't have!

Catastrophe Waitress takes the main prize for me this time....... Your yard is just about perfect. Needs some more yellow perhaps (lol-that said by a yellow fan so take with a grain of salt). Orchid Majesty looks full of potential, and Rocket Booster sure stands out. Nice yellow eye............Maryl

Outstanding pictures! And they're all so beautiful it is impossible to pick a favorite so I won't exhaust myself trying. Your garden looks so healthy after all that rain you got.

Tell us some of the varieties in the yard shot. Rose F. Kennedy certainly stands out. What is the big red clump towards the right?

Gorgeous blooms! Love the clump shots. Hard to choose favorites but Carnival in Brazil, Catastrophe Waitress, and Little Light of Mine are my top picks.
