I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas!

I am looking forward to 2012 so until I start posting in the spring...some more seedlings from seasons past.

Ohhh, I just love the purple one!

Hope you also had a great Christmas! ~Jan

Merry Christmas I'd say #2, 3 and 1 in that order and I would love to grow them all for you in our crazy Mississippi weather.(hint hint)

It's rained here all day and been pretty cold, about 45. I'm not complaining about the rain, but it sure would be nice to see some sunshine. It's been cloudy for 5 days now. We all had a fantastic Christmas. The kids are happy and I'm happy and stuffed!!! I think the stuffed part is great except when I try to tie my shoes..

I send blessings to everyone and Lyle and all please keep showing your pretty pictures. Mona

WOW!!!!! All are fab but #2 really makes my heart flip flop

They're all BEAUTIFUL!

All nice seedlings Lyle, the first one is outstanding.

All are very beautiful but I'm partial to #2. Love the purples.

Very beautiful seedlings as always Lyle. Fav is the purple.

My fav is definitely #1. Is that one you might be introducing one of these days?

Yummmm. #1 then 2 then 3 in that order for me.

BTW Merry Christmas Lyle.

Thanks for the nice holiday wishes, and comments on the seedlings.

Each year we try to give our display area a different look, I hope to post some photos of this coming season ....but for now.


Here is a few garden photos from seasons past.........

Wow Lyle! What is your peak bloom time? ~Jan

Lyle, Your daylily photos are fantastic. I was just thourghly enjoying them and UP jumped the last photo of the white blooming cactus. It is so pretty!!!! All we need now, is more photos. Thanks for taking the time to do this, I really enjoy them and I'm sure everyone does. Blessings, Mona

Very nice garden Lyle, love the stone walk ways.

Thanks for sharing your garden with us Lyle, it's lovely.

Gorgeous!!! Wish it were mine, lol.

Wonderful season it was too. 2012 promises to be a great one from what I see.

All but one of my daylilies are looking very robust. I think the one that's not doing too well is "Susie Seedling" This will be year two... we'll see how she does.

I live just a few miles from Lyle (south elevation) so we might experience similar growth (except he has MUCH better soil than I do!)

Lyle and family are very warm and welcoming hosts in his garden. It's a sight to behold! I always look forward to May shows!

Welcome Susie!!! I have not seen you on here before. Come visit us more often.

Hi there Susie! Welcome!

Realizing that I live in the north, on the daylilies I had this year that didn't seem to do well, I hit them with a daylily booster recipe I got off of Tinkers. The recipe is as follows: 1 tsp Epsom salt, 1 oz sorghum molasses (I used the molasses in my kitchen cupboard!) 1 TBS baking soda, all in 1 gallon of water. Worked wonders and really boosted those couple of plants I tried it on. Wish I had found this recipe earlier - perhaps I wouldn't have lost a plant I had bought that never did well. I used it on a seedling that didn't do well after transplanting, and a couple of established plants that I moved. Really perked them up. Since you live so close to Lyle, bet he has some suggestions that could help you with that one that is struggling. ~Jan
