It has been kind of crazy around here. Many things going on with plants, planting and just trying to breed/hybridize a couple of things now that I am learning more about what I have. I have tried crossing a couple of the water lilies (more on that, hopefully at a later date). They are growing like crazy though!
I am a little behind on weeding and more planting or moving of a few plants. I have been helping a friend for a couple of weeks so I feel behind. I was able to get out last weekend and again today to do some things in the daylily beds and yard. The pond plants are all really taking off! Several of them need to be thinned a bit yet that is lower on my list of To Do's! Here are a few pictures I took today wile out.
I did have my First Daylily Flower. To be correct it is FFO (First Flower Open), I had to lean what that ment, lol. I was really excited but a squirrel (I believe) chewed on it before it opened. It (the squirrel) also bit a smaller bud off the scape. I hope he/they don't try to eat any more. It really would have been a pretty bloom if not for the missing chunk!
Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Fame')
I hate to have to wage war with the squirrels around here!
I do have other scapes with buds so it won't be long and some other daylilys will Finally be Blooming!
Was able to get the SO to till another bed area for well, (he's going to have to make it bigger) it was for seedlings but I added a few more daylilies than I anticipated. I hear that happens with growing daylilies. ;)
It rained pretty hard here for most of two days right after I planted most of these dayliles. They did okay, but a couple took a bit of a beating.
This next week should be more normal around here and with any luck I can post a bit more.
