I've been eyeing Carrick Wildon for a while now and, thanks to your photo, I'm considering it again.

The usual suspects

Gordon Biggs (sorry for the bad photo)

Genesta with Bermuda Coral


Lady Neva

Big Smile

I've been loving everyone's blooms as usual! 😍
I don't have many to post but here's a new one that blooms a little later. First flower open today:
Different for Girls

Wow!! What a treat to see all your beauties. Temptations abound to get more plants. Trying some form of self control this fall and winter. Shamrock Dew
Boundless Beauty is an all time favorite here among others.
to all my new extended family members

After Awhile Crocodile




Thorhalla

Temp 92, humidity in the upper 80's, miserable heat wave But the daylilies love a morning temp of 71....something we don't get very often in Vt. Tonight it's cool colors....and some cool flowers

A Perfect Conversation


Catch a Wave....if only it wasn't a 3 hour drive to my favorite beach.


Crystal Castles, love the little darker polkadots on the petals.


Feel the Thunder, no storm front until tomorrow night then maybe...


Little Sumpin, sweet little watermarked blooms always recurve perfectly.


Smugglers Notch, looking lavender pink in the early morning light


There's a Place, a favorite of mine.


Waterpocket Fold, one of the last to FFO in my garden. It means daylily season is almost over....

Thank you! Glad to be here.

Thank you! Honestly, I bought it on a whim because I caught it at a clearance price of 2.99 and couldn't pass that up. I'm so glad I bought it now, because the bloom is spectacular.

I am loving all of those purples, especially Catch a Wave. That's going on my must have list

Char your blooms are always amazing! I always have to remind myself your beauties probably wouldn't do well in my zone lest I succumb to Lily lust.

Not a lot from me because of the Deer Daylily Massacre. But some are trying their darndest! Here are a few over a few days

Second to last on Pink Stripes. It's having some trouble, but it is here, still going!


Frans Hals


An earlier Frans Hals that had trouble. Pretty sure it was the Cholula hot sauce (awkwardly coughs). It had the yellow color of the third picture IRL, but my phone was stupid on the first picture.




Everydaylily Red Ribs. Such a trooper. This was its 3rd round of scapes (only 2 with just a few buds). But it will keep going until frost. Got it last year from Breck's (before I fully learned about the proper daylily sellers. The fact things are sold as double fan still delights me), & I have really been enjoying it & the Everydaylily Rose.



And my current excitement: Elegant Explosion has thrown up a very nice looking scape for me! First bud should open in the next day or so, & I am SO PSYCHED.

Marika, I have EveryDaylily Cerise, which I also bought online before I knew anything about where to buy daylilies. It has been a terrific performer for me, though. It just sent up another scape. This pic is from earlier this summer.

$2.99!!! I would snap that up too. Will mentioned adding Carrick Wildon to his list and I am kicking myself for not getting it when I had the chance earlier this year. So beautiful!

Just one pic:
Suzy Cream Cheese in full bloom

I am back from traveling for 17 days far from my gardens. I would have liked to have made visits to more gardens on my trip but only a few fit in with the other agenda. I enjoyed all the New England cottage gardens and the Coastal Maine Botanical gardens. Did not find a beach on the rocky coast but that was no problem since that weather and water was too cold for lswimming for my hot southwestern acclimation.
Home to messy over grown gardens. Some rebloom but mostly in the seedling and miniature beds.

Yes Char, "daylilies love a morning temp of 71" … as I vaguely remember. Our low this August 12 was 49. Very little bloom is left here.

Very new in our garden, why do I like it? Three scapes and on one day four blooms open on each scape, twelve blooms and none of them getting in each other's way, not bad for a start. How about extended bloom and still lots of buds to go. Throw in five way branching and I've got a keeper.

WELDING THE TITANIC

Bremer - 2011
Mid Late
Zone 3
55" tall 8" bloom


This is the best shot I could get of SDG. Remember we are talking about 49 degrees and 13,000 foot mountains due east of us and very close. "Sunrise" (warming) is quite late in the morning here. I thought you might appreciate a little detail though…

SOLI DEO GLORIA

Emmerich - 2011
Mid Late
Zone 4a
28" tall 6.5" bloom


Low sunlight brings out some detail that otherwise would be lost in the wash. New in our garden and just a couple of years away from inclusion in the way-back garden.

SCANDINAVIA

Mahieu - 2003
Mid Late
Zone 3
54" tall 8.5" bloom

Kidfishing, that sounds like a wonderful trip! Those blooms are gorgeous... so many to love! I'd never heard of Kokopelli before, but at 52 inches, I bet I would love it

WELDING THE TITANIC

anyone care to explain this name?

April. You will enjoy the site and the helpful people here.

I believe there has been speculation that if the Titanic had used welding (rather than rivets) it might have fared better (probably not).
