Such pretties everywhere! (Not a scape in sight yet in 5b).

The LVT clump- what a show!
And Two Sues- still a fan favorite : )

It's year 4 in the beds for some of mine- might actually have some clumps worth posting.

Next are small clumps but pretty flowers:
Mister Butters--about nine years in our garden now and finally starting to produce quite a few scapes that are much taller than usual. Only six blooms today but they can be seen from a good distance.

Linda Sierra-- love the look of this one, and just realized it has spots/speckles.
Thumb of 2023-05-21/Avedon/67f48a
Redneck Riviera--this one is in a new spot this year and seems to be doing much better. The blooms are very showy.
Thumb of 2023-05-21/Avedon/2b9c3d
Velvet Shadows--a nice dozen or so blooms today

Okay, LVT picked up today big time with over 30 blooms.

Can't do without Two Sues, even with just 11 flowers.
Thumb of 2023-05-23/Avedon/dc2e8b
Westbourne Good Old Days--this is such a good plant and a surprise was the fragrance that came floating on the breeze from those nine daylilies--first time it has ever happened.

"Mudbug Madness"-- produced nine nice-sized flowers.

Debra, Velvet Shadows is a good-sized clump and I am hoping for lots more flowers in future.

Just posting a "sneak preview" of Imperial Lemon. These three plants always do well here. Love reliable, beautiful, fragrant daylilies. It is very dry right now, so we will give them some water, and then they should really show out in a few more days.

@Deryll I see why you suggest Ruby Spider; there certainly is a resemblance. This plant was a seedling from a local hybridizer, so while it is not Ruby Spider, there may be some Ruby Spider in its lineage.

I think I might still have one or two seedlings out of Ruby Spider. The color is always so vivid, and yours shows that very well. Yours is a keeper. Thumbs up

Guys - We need more clump photos! This thread fell to Page 2!!! Here's my contribution. It's still very early, and all I've got that looks like a clump is this seedling.
