Our Friend Sally, Navigate the Sun, Virginia Walker. Thumbs up Karin, I noticed there was no picture of the gorgeous Virginia Walker in the ATP database too.
The problem is that when you are young your life it is ruined by your parents. When you are older it is ruined by your children.

Karin - I am fairly new to the daylily forum, but happy to see that you are back! I went through a lot of changes over the past 6 years and gardening kept me sane through it all. It will help you heal over time from your loss. I think that is why I love gardening so much. It is therapy of the best kind!

Your daylilies are beautiful and so are your photos! You have an artistic and photographic eye!
What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters, compared to what lies within us.

Karin, I'm very sorry to hear about the loss of your sister. I hope that your garden will bring happy memories of all that you shared with her.

I love Strikingly Dramatic with its pinwheel style. You have some nice daylilies and I hope you will post more!

Hi Caroline - Don't know how long your season is but hoping you get more blooms soon to share. Do you grow mostly dormants in your zone?

Good morning to all!
Cool but sunny here this morning and lots of blooms to look at!

Becky, you are absolutely right about gardening to being such good therapy. It gets you outside and moving and the plants never talk back to you. Weeding can be very stress reducing and you always get the satisfaction after of having the garden look so nice. Below are some plants that were blooming yesterday.

Stone Soul Picnic


Clairvoyant Tendancies


Scandinavia - this will always be in my garden. It's standing 5 feet tall this year!

Good evening to everyone!
Thank you all for your kind comments. Since I don't have many folks around here to share my gardens with I'm happy to share my photos with you all, especially of the daylilies. I feel fortunate that I still have many buds to bloom. Quite a few plants are sending up rebloom scapes. Since I have moved to this new house two years ago and had to start new gardens I don't think I've ever seen my daylilies so happy..........well most of them, there are always exceptions to those that don't do as well and of course I think it's always the ones that you want so badly to thrive.
