Oh my goodness, Ehren Thomas is so gorgeous. The white edge really sets off the base color. Rio Fiesta is a very pretty daylily with nice form. The color is not as intense as its parent, Orange Grove, but I think it has a better form. Can't Touch This is so brilliant and striking. It must be a happy plant if it went from one fan to four fans in about a month! Bad bunnies for getting the bud that should have bloomed here today or tomorrow!

Can't Touch this is just getting better and better. It is proving itself at your place.

Love Can't touch This, Pirate Moon, and Cutting Loose. Almost forgot
Ehren Thomas. Ah, shucks, they are all lovely. It is so exciting to go
out and see these plants blooming after the long winter wait. It's
exciting to see others' blossoms also. These gorgeous plants just
call to us as they are such a thing of beauty.

ATP is acting up today. This is the second post I have had to type again.

What I like about Ehren Thomas is the fact that it blooms flawless at least so far, no thrip damage.

Mona, yes I will be selling seeds this summer on the lilyauction. I don't keep them and plant seedlings, I sell them all. I make my garden support itself.

I just learned two things in these posts. How to copy a quote, and use
something translucent to take photos. Thank you, thank you guys for that.

Ah, shucks, now I have to add Can't Touch This, Pirate Moon, Cutting
Loose, and Ehren Thomas to my list. Will wait till they come down in
price though. Really nice blossoms.
