That is really gorgeous Lyle. I love the strong color.

Beautiful, love it!!!

Thanks for the nice comments - The flower does look better in person and should be in bloom when i have my garden tour in May 2012.

I' already ready for Spring to see what beauties you will show us. These are gorgeous.

I hope to have a better year in 2012. I have crossed some of my own and have already seen some nice progress.

This seedling will be in it's final evaluation year.....

that is a strange combination, but pretty...

Very interesting and strikingly unique.
Reminds me of a name such as:
"SUN DEVIL" or "TROJAN - for U.S.C."

I really like that seedling. Great colors!!

Oh, that last seedling is really pretty!!

The last seedling is and unique color it will be considered in 2012. The name Sun Devil has been taken but that leaves ASU or ARIZONA STATE open.

If this next seedling shows well in 2012, it will be named after one of my granddaughters.

Sun Heathen may be a good name.
I love the ruffles. The color is magnificent. Especially the way the lavender blends into the cream edges...Beautiful..
It seems I love them all, Doesn't it???

How about DIABLO DEL SOL.

Susie I like that last name!

Lyle, I really love Dry Heat!
have you been sharing them on the data base here?

Yes, he is letting us see his beauties. Love them all...

Dry Heat is good. Could be slightly misread or controversial for something that is suppose to procreate, however.

Thanks for the name suggestions! I have entered a couple of mine into the data base at cubits which was transferred here.

Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Desert Angel')

The weather is holding nicely and the daylilies are responding in a big way...

Some of the daylilies in the hybridizing area are sending up scapes, if the weather hold i could be 2-3 weeks ahead of last year, this will mean my open garden will be almost in peak bloom......

Last year February 26, 2011

Looks like a really healthy field, Lyle! Mine are doing well too. Seem to be taller leaves than last year. Maybe because they are more established? What about fertilizing, Osmocote... Soon? I put some out about 2 months ago or so.
