I still have a lot of bloom, even though we're in the middle of July. Normally I only have a few blooming now.

Kisses From Heaven ffo - This one is blooming more than three weeks late this year.

Rainbow Maker

Hoopla - I can't resist showing another photo of this new one. The color was so rich this week.

Mystic Maize and White Eyes Pink Dragon

Kentucky Lucky - It had 13 blooms shimmering in the early morning light.

Old Time Italiian reblooming

Picasso's Intrigue rebloom

Pink Aloha with one of its last blooms

Sun Temple Spirit (darker yellow green in person)

The Color of Wonderful is still have groups of blooms everyday on the original scapes, and it has two rebloom scapes coming.

More to come in the comments!

Hoopla looks such a rich color, and Picasso's Intrigue has so much detail it makes you go back and look again and again. I got Sun Temple Spirit I think Spring of 2020. It did not bloom last year and has not bloomed this year. Can't find a tag, i guess it.did not survive. Pretty yellow. That touch of yellow on the seals of Maui reminds my of My Pet Dragon, what I really like about it. Sword of Justice is gorgeous.

Flowergirl - Autumn Jewels and and Desperado Love do have flowers that are similar colors. Both are descended from El Desperado. I grow all three because I like that color combo. AJ and DL have different shaped blooms, different sized blooms, different scape heights, and different bloom times. AJ has a 6-inch bloom on 40-inch scapes and is a late bloomer. DL has a 5-inch bloom on 26-inch scapes (it's 29 inches here) and blooms midseason. Chris - Mantis is right. Bullfrog Kisses was hybridized by Frank Smith. The Trimmers have a general listing with newer daylilies hybridized by others on it. I wanted to add more Frank Smith daylilies because I've had such good luck with American Doll and I Remember You. So I bought Bullfrog Kisses and Patsy Cline from Watermill, along with four of Trimmers intros because the prices were the best I could find on the Smiths. Debra

Jane...WL is in it's 1st bloom season for me, and I'm not sure if it will always be this late. However, it was planted last fall and not in the spring, so maybe it will. I like the late ones, cause it extends my bloom season. :) You are going to love SM....it's always a beauty. Kay...thanks for the compliment...I just point and shoot!! lol Danielle....I agree, love those raindrops!! I'm sure glad ya'll are liking BC...cause she certainly has put on a show for me. Glad you also got some rain....we got over 2 inchs total. Juliet...Thanks for the compliment, and I'm glad you're enjoying my photos. :) Jean...I am lucky to have so much rebloom this year....thanks for the compliment, as I stated earlier, I just point and shoot...all the credit goes to my beautiful dl's!! Jessica...you don't do so bad in the photo dept. either, gal!! I love seeing yours and all the other peoples too. MF is really shining on its rebloom, I like it much better now than I did earlier too. Jan

I always like Royal Jester when you show that one. Blue Jay is really nice too, you have several nice ones reblooming. I have a few reblooming, but most of those are finishing up now. I was most surprised with Mississippi Man. I only have a single fan, but it just put up its 2nd rebloom scape. Looks like it is adding a couple of tiny fans too. I have always loved dianthus, and there are some really pretty varieties now. Like Maryl's, I think all of mine have gradually died out. Some of the biennial forms outlasted the perennial. Guess I need to replace mine, yours remind me how much I miss them.

Mantis, Nancy and Kate - Dearest Mahoghany is still being grown in a pot. I'm going to planting it either in a raised bed or in the ground this fall. I hope under those conditions it will multiply. I will say the previous two years the pot was in too much shade. When I won it three years at the Region 10 auction, I split it with a friend who lives in TN. Hers died, so I don't know how vigorous it is. Nancy - I hope your Confessions makes it. I'd like to see if yours would ultimately have a good plant habit. I know the first two years I had mine, it got hit by grubs. But it has been heavily dosed with grub killer for two years now. Also, I set a lot of pods on it last year. That can cause reduced vigor the following year too. Debra

Brad - My scapes on North Wind D are still standing tall this year. So far, we haven't had any storms with high winds to knock them down.

Nancy - I'm sorry your Sun Temple Spirit disappeared. People who walk by do ask me about that one. It's a very bright color that attracts a lot of attention. I'm really liking Hoopla, and Sword of Justice is a good performer in the late season.

Very nice FFO on Kisses from Heaven. Love the bouquet of Kentuckys. All such pretty flowers but my favorite are Hoopla and Pink Aloha.

Your Pink Aloha is perfection. I had a few blooms from mine this year, but it's still settling in. I can't remember. Do you ever get rebloom on yours?.............That Kentucky Lucky shot is so gorgeous. Your pictures are always good, but this is just "awesome".....I always like your Old Time Italian. It's a matter of room in my collection on that one. A pretty light pink with a yellow edge. Right up my alley...................Maryl

What a nice variety of colors in these later ones! Yes, I think the season bloom is being extended by the number of things blooming out of order. Peak here is less defined. The Color of Wonderful has never taken off here. I wonder if this is another tender dormant. (parent Leslie Renee was a bummer here.) Curt Hanson has a lot of earlier yellows that are underappreciated.

Nat - I'm glad you like Kisses From Heaven. It's one of the few edge-no eye daylilies that's still alive here.

Maryl - I've never had rebloom on this Pink Aloha plant in its current location. The first Pink Aloha I got that I grew in a pot had rebloom the first year. (I've had three Pink Alohas. The first two died in pots.) I thought the Kentucky Lucky shot was especially good. I'm glad you think so too. I may enter that one in the AHS contest.

Mantis - I'm surprised The Color of Wonderful hasn't done well for you. It's very vigorous here. I'm enjoying having more blooming in July. I'd be happy if they bloomed out of order every year.
