Here's a shot from the other day showing most of my two daylily beds - I took this out of my office window, which is upstairs. I took another picture that showed a little more of the bed by the house (and part of the deck), but the lighting wasn't as good. The lawn is green because my husband has been watering it every day (I love my gardens and flowers, he loves to keep the lawn looking nice).

Master Huntsman

Heartbeat Of Heaven

If you're not bored yet, keep looking... I will add more in another comment soon.

Beautiful Laura! I love the clump shots, the garden shot, all the purples, etc. Not the least bit bored!

Planet Claire and Mount Ararat

Sunny Intervals, bad pic

Coral Majority

And I'm caught up with the highlights through yesterday! Other than my seedlings :) I will wait and do a post of those or some of those later. I'm still waiting for more to bloom.

OK... Here's a teaser, one of my favorite seedlings so far - Thistles and Thorns x Jellyroll Morton. This is the one that had two scapes coming out of one fan that I posted about a few weeks ago - and I actually have a couple of other seedlings doing that also.

Thank you so much for looking!

So many nice clump shots, Laura! My favorites today are Lost in Translation and Barbara Mandrel. I like Cloud of Witness. I’m envious of all your space!

Lots of beautiful bloom shots. Your seedling is quite pretty. I like Panic in Detroit, and the Davissson's are lovely your beds look really good, as des his lawn.

So many blooms to feast the eyes. I love your garden pic and I see your fencing it to keep intruders out. Did you start out with it round and then just kept expanding it?Your lawn looks nice and green. I do hope your husband waters your garden while doing the lawn LOL.

Your clumps look so good, I like Rev it Up

Wonderful clump of Claudine's Charm. Butter Cream has been a great performer this year. Planet Claire pairs nicely with Mount Ararat. Just be happy that Deliverer is clean. So splotchy here that it had to exit. Dream Society still hasn't opened here. Is Bullfrog Kisses at registered height and decent bud count? Lots of complaints about it in the north. Cinderella's Dark Side, never a good performer here. Purify My Heart hasn't been very vigorous in recent years.

What a vista from the upstairs! Makes me wish for another floor.

You have so many huge clumps? What are you feeding those plants to get that kind of increase? Matchless Fire and Rev It Up seem to go on forever. Again, I'm blown away by Mary's Baby. You, Mantis and Maryl all have huge, impressive clumps of that one. I got it yesterday on the Lily Auction. It's hard to list favorites because I have so many among these. One of my favorite photos is the combo of Planet Claire and Mount Ararat, and I love the garden shot. Dr. Jules and Kingdom Without End are marvelous. This was truly a feast for the eyes!

Debra

Missed your overhead view of the gardens, so lovely! That’s a perfect match you for flowers and hubby for the turf!

Shery

Had to look up Master Huntsman. Didn't know Pearce had any dormants. Sure looks interesting. Your take on it?..........Your clump shots are great, that Rev It Up really pulls in my attention....The whole garden shot is impressive to say the least. You should be proud...........Maryl

What a fantastic view from your office! Your yard looks great as well. So many beautiful blooms, hard to choose favorites. The ones that stand out the most include Dr. Jules Michael Vinkman, Bullfrog Kisses, Claudine’s Charm, Butter Cream, and Coral Majority but all are really lovely.

Thanks, all! Julia, both beds were all grass; I created the closer one around the deck and then gradually expanded it out over a few years, decided to have it go out as a peninsula. A lot of the daylilies DO get hit by the sprinklers, just because they are where there used to be lawn... a few of the sprinklers were replaced with taller pop-up ones, but they still pelt some of the plants and the plants block the spray in several areas, so that all don't get hit. Mantis, Deliverer was super splotchy last year, but hasn't been this year... others have been very splotchy this year though. I'll have to check on Bullfrog Kisses and get back with you. I think it would definitely be happier somewhere warmer, but it does okay (not much increase though). Debra, I use Osmocote, Milorganite and alflafa pellets when planting and around most of my daylilies in the spring... I don't think I did them all this year though - with the long winter and late spring, I didn't get all my spring tasks and cleanup done.

Wow! My mind is reeling from all these beauties...I'm not going to try to pick a favorite, though I will say PURPLE - LOVE it!!!

Alex

Oops! Maryl, forgot to respond to you about Master Huntsman - the hybridizer is actually Ginny Pearce in western Michigan. I think you're thinking of Guy Pierce in FL. This is only MH's second bloom season here... it's supposed to be a northern rebloomer, so we'll see if it does for me.

Wow just absolutely beautiful selection! I like your taste in daylilies ;) :)) Love Barbara Mandrell, Deliverer, Isabelle Rose and oh so many more! Look at that Heartbeat of Heaven, so beautiful! Great garden shot! Haha my whole yard is smaller than your back bed in that photo :) Oh and my Mount Ararat is also growing next to a yellow, didn't plan just happened, love the combo!
