I was worried about these darks in full sun but they hold up fabulously well.

Loving this one. Lovey dubby My camera doesn't capture the purple truly.

A friend's seedling. Love this plant. One year old. Lots of large blooms just above the foliage (scrapes could be a couple inches longer but get the job done), always well formed.

These blooms are all so beautiful. Mine are such a mess...blotches, tears, thrips damage on most every one. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

I'm toying with the idea of simply not going outside until the sun has been out due at least 2 days. It's been days. I woke up to sun, then it switched back to cloudy/rainy in 20 min.
Hardy hibiscus are a hobby, but daylilies are an obsession.

You know, I knew the color was off, but thought it wasn't happy being here I'm sunny FL and was missing nutrients. Thanks for getting me corrected.

Thanks everyone. Have a few others that are in the cue to post. Maybe later...

Rain is hard on them, Ken. If rain gets down into the buds, particularly the ones with ruffly edges that can have openings, it can make the blooms splotchy.

My very first blooms for 2020! Usually Cyber Zone wins the race to being the first to bloom in my garden, but not this year!

Of course, Happy Returns was first. It bloomed yesterday.

But today, It Is Finished bloomed and I am impressed with it. So glad to have another early bloomer in my garden, even though it took it a few years to settle in. Got this in 2015.

Posting these two because they're FFEs.

(It's in a pot with Walter Kennedy, and it had WK's marker beside it. I see no eye, but I do see a watermark and an edge, so I think it's Talladega.)

@Pat236, your fifth one down that you lost the tag on looks so familiar, but I can't come up with a name. It is gorgeous though!

@blue23rose,
Vickie, it is a super nice bonus from someone on the Lily Auction. I know it's a named cultivar and not a seedling. I wish I knew the name as well.

Stunning blooms everyone.

Today's blooms are a total wash, literally. Just to much water to fast for anything to make a good showing. Crying

At least melting flowers make good Monarch food. Shrug!
