D daylilies 2022
Today is the day for D daylilies, I only have a few, please show us yours.
Quote of the day: Instead of cleaning my house I just watch an episode Hoarders and think, Wow, my house looks great!
Destined to See never disappoints here.
Dances With Giraffes was new last season. It had a few blooms, this is my only photo and its not the best.
Dearest Valentine was also new, had a few blooms. Unfortunately this is the only photo of this lovely daylily I have. I hope someone posts a better photo of it.
This is a 2020 photo of Devine Design, it didnt bloom this past. I‘m not sure it survived last season, fingers crossed it shows up again

2 years agolast modified: 2 years agoMy favorite is Dearest Valentine and with a special reason. It reblooms here (a rarity) and this photo was taken in August on a rebloom scape during a heat wave. There are three blooms! there. It sure is holding its own.
Dearest Valentine:
I was talking about how I missed this double last year and ordered it again right before the cold snap killed all my Evergreens. Then I remembered why I don't buy them. I only managed to get one picture during the chaos that is the garden in June here.Dutch Yellow Truffle:

O daylilies 2022
Comments (8)It's still rain here, but the nastiness should start this afternoon. The temperatures have already dropped quite a bit, but not below freezing yet. O Positive is one of those that is hard to photograph. The color is more red than violet. It's a small dip. I am not a fan of the color on Odontos. I am putting this seedling here because it is Olallie seedling no 17-08. If you notice, it has dark scapes. On Your Knees You Will Find Him is a good grower for us, but I haven't gotten it to set seeds. The pollen is good though. One Above You is one of Jamie Gossard's super tall ones. I don't think it's as tall as Big Bird's Friend or Jack and the Beanstalk. I love the shape and color of One Hot Mama. More to come . . ....See MorePink Daylilies From the 2022 Season

Comments (36)I agree with Brad. You have quite the selection of lavenders. I envy all those people who get lavender not mauve. Don't get me wrong, I like my mauves, but would also like a little variation............ Christopher Hitchens is one that draws my attention. Don't see that working in my garden though. I also like the pattern on Contributing Editor as well as the color. Really, all of them look lovely so hard to single out only a few................Maryl...See MoreOrange Daylilies of 2022
Comments (30)Santorini Sunset looks like a bright one. Muy Calliente looks very interesting. Oranges are probably the least popular color after yellow on auctions. People don't appreciate how vivid and varied they can be. This is the only pic I took of Bob Marley this year. It did not like the heat against that off-white wall. Spirit Fox looked good, though other oranges can be more vivid. Carrick Wildon is always a later bright one. Alabama Jubilee had a great year. So many oldies showed why they are classics. Krakatoa Lava Stop the Car--not a sizable clump yet, but certainly warrants a pause in one's gaze. Tahiti Sweetie --commands attention with height Mardi Gras Indian --very vivid Tropical Fruit Loops --I like this color. A sib of Mardi Gras Indian Heavenly Dragon Fire --a unique glowing color. Crintonic Fireball --excellent color. Too new to evaluate habit Indian Ripple --great display this year Holiday Party --showy in garden if you like doubles Lana Ishee --the older evergreen that Chris liked (and must have given me). It blooms reliably in a searing color Vitamin C --a good landscaper. The color itself is a bit dull close-up, but makes a bright spot. I have grown to like it. Made a long display. It looks best in sun, which we had a lot of last summer. Solar Fire --an older Webster, very large, plain but showy Heman Mean Green Tropical Fusion --very showy in the garden, even if the plant habit is not ideal. Nan showed this one for a few years....See Moredaylilybedmaker

Doing All Right: A Bennett intro that is somewhat slow to increase.
Dracula: This is a good performer.
Dragon Fang: Good performer year after year.

Lots of stuff going on. All good!
Desire of Nations and Dearest Valentine are my favorites of the above daylilies.
I don't have many D's
Do the Twist
Desert Icicle
Daveo Holeman, a beautiful but extremely poor performer. Moved it to beside my trash can a couple of years ago which is next to the road. If it blooms, it blooms.
That's all for me.

2 years agoHere is our Dances with Giraffes. We haven't had it long enough for it to reach its full potential.
Dappled Dynamo doesn't make much of a clump. The color is subtle--varying degrees of stippling--and the flowers are small. It does bloom like crazy. It starts early and is often the last flower in the garden.
Here's our Dearest Valentine. This upcoming season will be its third one. We hope to see many lovely flowers from this.
Dennis Russell is one that was hard to find at a reasonable price. In the end, I paid more than I probably should have, but I am not disappointed.
Dragon's Orb is one of those tiny diploids.
Dribble or Shoot was planted just last spring. I think it shows a lot of promise.
That's all for me.Nancy

2 years agoSherry I hope your Divine Design makes it. That quote made me chuckle.
Destined to See is very reliable here too but did not have its best year in the heat & drought.
Double River Wye. Wish I had taken a pic of a better formed individual bloom.

2 years agoDesigner Delight is quite prolific for me.
Something about the texture and subtle color variation along with its sturdy size makes Destin Dreamin one of my favorites.

2 years agolast modified: 2 years agoDark Witch looks interesting. That clump of Double River Wye looks good in front of the Shasta daisy. Ideally, daylilies should be grown amidst other perennials, as Bennett did in his garden. Dance Again is one I haven't noticed before.
Desire of Nations is an important hybridizing plant, but has been disappointing as a garden plant. Slow growth and late spring freezes are probably responsible for recent subpar bloom.
Dream Sequence, vigorous and showy
Dankie --limited bud count, but a softly alluring shade
Darker Shade--darker and more purplish, but a difficult shade to capture
Duel Zone --a nice bitone, though plant habit is not ideal
Drums Along the Mohawk
Dennis Russell --a nice plant, though not the quality of Glowing Quasar
Dixieland Band has been a consistent and colorful later bloomer in recent years.
Deep Dark Secret was nice this past year.
The cream pink watermark of Dr. McGregor's Garden is very appealing.
Dark Gethsemane --we shall see
Drew Hoo looks very promising
Dragon Nation is vigorous, used a lot by Mary Baker in hybridizing.
Dirty Bastard
Not my best picture of Daniel Howard Norris, but the best from this past year.
