I Couldn't Resist, Not Possible

last year

last modified: last year

As you know, I have had the daylily "I'll Get You My Pretty" for several years. It is one of the ones whose name amused me enough that I bought it. Well, Eric Simpson who sells through Blueriddge has a new one called "And Your Little Dog Too". Yes; I ordered it and I will plant them together which is convenient since I was moving IGYMP since it is in the cat daylily area and I have a new one to plant there.

I know, I know, but that is me and my sense of humor.

OOPS! look as if the link didn't work. Sorry. Anyway, they are lifting pallets of bags of oyster shells by helecopter to carry to where they want to enlarge the oyster beds. Then, they lay the old shells down in the mud and hope that they don't sink too deep. If everything goes well, the oyster spawn will come and land on the old shells and make their home. It's one of those "let's help Mother Nature do her thing" projects. Let's hope it works.

Thank you, Josephine. Mine (Wheee) is unfurling now. It looks a little unbalanced but so far so good, no cold damage that I can see. *Knocks on wood* I will get pics of it this week when hopefully after this rain, it is looking a little prettier. It looks kinda weird right now. But the leaf that is completely unfurled looks good. I am so happy I didn't lose her (don't tell the others, but next to my first, the Albomarginata, Wheee is my favorite! shhhh... I love all my hostas the same! :-) )

Yeah,I have daylilies too,and they are in bloom now,but the worst thing about them is,they only bloom one day,and then they are gone,and then they are just ugly grasses the rest of the year! Give me hostas anyday! We don't grow them for the flowers! Unless you are frustrated hybridizers! Phil

I went and looked it up. Orange with red center looks like it will be a stand out in your garden.

That's neat, Kay. I think Tom Polston really missed an opportunity when he introduced I'll Get You My Pretty. I would have named one And Your Little Dog Too and introduced them the same year.

I must admit that sometimes I am attracted (or repelled) by the name of the daylily.

Funny, Nancdy, I agree that Polston missed it when he didn't follow up with IGYMP. Thank you all for looking and commenting on my silliness.
