| By MrsMud on Jun 1, 2024 6:16 AM, concerning plant: Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Red Volunteer') With a 1.1 rust rating, I don't believe this cultivar should have the description "susceptible"; I believe that's an error. [ | Reply to this comment ] |

| By juba1 on May 31, 2024 9:40 AM, concerning plant: Tall Bearded Iris (Iris 'Modern Woman') Grows very well in my garden in Zone 7b on sandy soil. Very long stalks with comparatively small blooms.

| By Floreseta on May 30, 2024 9:03 AM, concerning plant: Hybrid Hardy Hibiscus (Hibiscus Summerific™ Evening Rose) I have been growing Summerific hibiscus in SW Florida for 2 years. My Evening Rose hibiscus, which is in a large pot, is beautiful, but seems more tender than the others, the flowers looking ragged by the end of the afternoon, in full sun (same with Valentine's Kiss). I just moved it to a more shaded spot under the roof. The dark color of the leaves provides a beautiful contrast to the huge gorgeous pink flowers. [ | Reply to this comment ] |
