Well I have really enjoyed everyones photos. Sorry I haven't posted in awhile but it has been a crazy spring here.

Dot

Here are some of the new ones here this spring as well as some I have had awhile. Since we had a colder than usual winter, Rose F Kennedy really put on a show for me and is my favorite here this year, even with lots of new stuff.

More photos from this year.

I have a new computer and editing my pictures is going to be much harder now, even using the same program. The same program works differently on Windows 7 much to my dismay. It used to be so easy now it is tough and hard to navigate.

Ladylovingdove,
Lovely blooms and photos, but I would love to see a larger version of them. I guess this is not the correct place, but maybe start a new thread about your problems with the program. Maybe some of us use that program and can give you some hints to make it easier. Maybe OT - The Porch Swing, would be a good place to post I will be glad to help if I can to make things easier.

Rolling on the floor laughing Oh I did click on the photos, I always do that , I never give thumbs without opening the photo first. Some open up nice and large, mine maybe too large, but some like those open larger, but still small to me. Maybe they were taken on a cell phone, that is often the case when they stay small like that. If taken with a camera maybe they are being reduced down too far before posting (from my view point).
Edited to add:
Compare to kimcats photos.

Debra, I love several of the prism daylilies, but AMETHYST PRISM and AZURE PRISM are tied for first place to my mind. JANE'S PRISM is also really beautiful, but there's something about the huge size of AMETHYST and AZURE that really draw me in.

What about you -- do you like any of the prism daylilies?

I for one, haven't seen a Prism dl that I did not swoon for. I want one so badly, I can taste it. Hilarious!

Bullfrog Kisses is a stunner. But I have seen lots of stunners in the last batch posted. I couldn't possibly name all my favorites from them.

Betty, do you know how they compare to Pikes Peak a prism which I have planted last month?

I think you are talking to the other Debra, but I really like nearly every Prism I've seen. Smiling My favorite is Picotee Prism. Lovey dubby

Glen, PIKES PEAK is another beauty, and I have it also, but AMETHYST PRISM and AZURE PRISM are quite a bit bigger and more dramatic IMHO. They have a different look, which I believe comes from TET TIME STOPPER, that I just love.

And Other Debra, I agree that PICOTEE PRISM is really beautiful too. That one and PIRATE'S PRISM are also very dramatic looking prisms, and I love them both.

Betty - I don't have any of the Prisms yet. But I was tempted to order either Amethyst or Azure when I saw the Floyd Cove catalog. Unfortunately I already had more daylilies coming than I had space for, so I decided to wait. Also, I couldn't pick between Amethyst and Azure. LOL

So many beautiful blooms on this page. Cannot possibly chose one flower over another.

Dot...Your pix are clear as a bell. Have you tried increasing your picture size in your camera's program? I do not use Windows so cannot comment on there program. But using your camera to increase picture size maybe the answer. Last year in an email, you mentioned how gorgeous 'Marina del Rey' was in your garden. Your pictures and words convinced me to buy that one this Spring, and now is included in my garden. Also loved 'Cobalt Rings', and 'Stenciled Infusion'. Heck, they are all lovely. Hurray!

Debra...Whoa! 'Bullfrog Kisses' is a knockout. Absolutely, love it! I don't have that plant but have a seedling cross of 'Bullfrog Kisses X Carnival Dream' (Benz) growing in my garden. Fingers crossed that this turns out to be a great cross. You never know. Hurray!

Kim...Your 'Vampire Bat' is outstanding. Great picture. Hurray!
