Lovely! I really like the look of RBW. Just realized I posted my first bloom of the season in April's thread since covid, I rarely get out and have a hard time remembering what day it is.

Oh boy, Oh boy, Oh boy!!! Love your daylilies, Fred. Love that you started a May thread. If all goes well, , I may be posting to this thread toward the end of the month.

This daylily actually produced the first bloom April 30th, but it couldn't open fully because of the cool, damp weather. This one is a little better, caught it just before the heavy rain started. Perhaps next week we will have a couple of days of sunshine, and it will be shown to much better advantage.

I had some blooms open in the garden today some repeats and some new ones.
'Celtic Butterfly':

'Filled With Joy':

'Web Of Intrigue":

'Life Is A Highway':

It's a lovely morning in the garden. Here are some blooms for you.

Banana Pancakes


Jedi Brenda Spann


Smile-n-Dales


The Blue Parrot

New first blooms in the garden this season.
'American Freedom':

'Bonnie Holley':

Both of the above have very stiff thick substance and had not fully opened when I took the photos, wish they would open earlier.
'Shamrock Dew': Just a beautiful bloom to me.

'William My Angel': I think the appliques look better to me when the tepals are a darker color I can imagine this with darker tepals.

It was a tie between Black Eyed Stella and Daring Dilemma for the first blooms for 2021. Daring Dilemma was a first time bloom, planted September 2020





Edit: should have been Daring Deception instead of Daring Dillemma

Nice photos everyone, thanks for posting.
