That is a nice looking daylily and to have one that is so old and knowing the name of it is amazing!

P.S. I am back to having trouble photographing yellows again. Sigh.

I like! Now I see where I got the idea they were ground orchids. I was seeing the blooms over daylily foliage. My eyes aren't so great anymore either. Whistling Sometimes I have my face right up to this computer screen. Hilarious!

Glen, I think the bright yellow blooms of the butter cups are a bit over exposed. Hard to get the blooms and the foliage exposed correctly sometimes.

Lovely new blooms, Glen. So neat to see your season starting up. That last yellow daylily looks like the one my mother used to grow, and she called it her 'Lemon lily', a very graceful, very early yellow one. It may have been H. flava, not sure and I wish I had pictures of it. Is yours fragrant?

Once again, I think our mutual heritage (British) is seen in some of the heirloom flowers on both sides of the Pacific.

I'm hoping to see a few late blooms on some of my new plantings into October this year. It's still very much summer here, although the northern states, Wyoming, and the Dakotas are supposed to get early snow tomorrow. BRRRrr!!

Goodness. Don't wish yourself snow yet. It was hard watching what most of you went through last winter.

Thanks Elaine. Yes, I think one of its names is Lemon Lily. A bloom appears to be lasting two days although the second day is a little worse for wear.

Today it and ASH ROSIE were blooming.

There are so many scapes coming on around the clumps. I have to be so careful in not doing what I carelessly did last year: knock buds off. Arrrhggghhh.

No, no, no, no--no snow! Caroline Scott in Calgary has already had a couple of inches. I will take yesterday's 101F over snow this early. Blinking

Glen, I like the Lemon Lilies and welcome to Ash Rosie. Smiling

Twodaylily? I wonder if it lasts longer because your weather is cooler right now, Glen?

When it's hot here, I have halfdaylilies. Crying

Elaine, that is a good point - I will watch.
