Imperial Lemon--three plants in bloom. Lucky I was able to get this, for a big storm blew in a few minutes after I took the picture.

Galaxy Explosion--ten flowers of this unique colored daylily, very striking. The description of the color is coppery/salmon blend with a deep purple/black throat. Maybe it can be seen better in the single pic.

Avedon Fairytale Pink is a fave around here too with lots of poly blooms. Have you seen any significant amount of poly on your big clump ?

Mike, no, I have not seen many polys, if any, on FTP. However, you have given me a heads-up so now I will check for them when I go out. There are so many blooms right now, I will be careful and look at each one, just in case.

This picture taken a couple of days ago--Persian Market has been an outstanding daylily here. Picture taken about 6:30 p.m. and the sun is shining right on the plant, but it looks good, no melting out.

I took these yesterday but got busy doing other things and forgot to post them.
Can't remember if I have posted a photo of this clump or not, but I have had this plant since March of 2015 and this is the first year it has shown me what it really looks like. I did not pay any attention to the stats, I just looked at the puny short plants that multiplied like a rabbits and seldom bloomed, and I wondered why anyone would want it.
Now this year it shot up tall scapes with lots of blooms and fit in perfectly at the back fence. I have this plant in three different places and have already given some away it has been so prolific.
'Prairie Blue Eyes':
Thumb of 2017-05-28/Seedfork/22cf4a
'Peacock Maiden': This plant had bloom after bloom that looked wonky in one way or another, but after about a week it starting finally making beautiful blooms.
Thumb of 2017-05-28/Seedfork/db1c96
'South Sea Enchantment': The blooms on this plant are always very attractive but they do vary in appearance a lot over time.
Thumb of 2017-05-28/Seedfork/9b0d6f
'Bonnie Corley': I think as far as consistency in making beautiful photos this has to be the best in the garden, there is just something about the blooms that the camera loves. However the foliage leaves a lot to be desired, rust does like the plant.

Ada May Musick--six lovely flowers spaced nicely across the plant so each could be seen individually. I love this one, for sure.

Julianna Lynn--this one is having a great year.

Thumb of 2017-06-01/Avedon/f4f600
Amethyst Crown--one that has been here quite a few years, but had never done much until my husband lifted it. Evidently, moles had run under it causing it to sink. Now it is doing wonderfully well, the best it has ever been.

A couple more with the paint bucket for scale.

'Cat's Cradle' and that's 'Chesapeake Crablegs' in the yellow cattle tub behind. Both of these have a wide variation in scape height this year. 'Cat's Cradle' probably needed some extra food early on:

'Navajo Narrative' showing why I expected more than the two scapes. There are about seven good sized fans there. It arrived last year as a single fan so the fans are probably just not quite mature enough to bloom yet. You can - sort of- see the lower branches on the scapes here:

This is a NOID but it certainly makes a pretty picture. Two clumps for the price of one!
