Very pretty blooms, love the skink.

Very nice blooms!!! It's hard to believe that Magic of Oz is already over 10 years old. Seems like I just got that one. My how time flies.

Beautiful blooms. They've really made me excited for my trip to Floyd Cove next month.
We have blue tailed skinks here in SC tho I'm not sure the proper name for them.

BTW, if anyone wants pics of particular daylilies from the Central FL hybridizers, let me know and I'll do my best to get shots of them for you when I go to Mecca.

It was a yellow and red day here.

Leslie, I dp have a picture request. I'm really interested in the toothy flowers, and also the smalls/minis -- and particularly Elizabeth Salter's new introductions. I would love to see pictures of any with teeth, plus if you go to the Salters' I would love to see pictures of her smalls/minis. Hope that's not too much to request. I'm particularly interested in seeing a picture of her MIX AND MATCH, introduced this spring. I'm trying some hybridizing now, and my goal at the moment is coming up with toothy smalls/minis after seeing that terrific yellow one that Lyle has come up with!

And thanks in advance for any pictures you can get!

Leslie,

We have the blue tailed ones here as well. If the body has stripes they are called five lined skinks. The juveniles have the blue tail and lose the coloring as adults and one of the common names other than the above is the blue tailed skink.

I hope you enjoy your trip to South Florida. We may go the week after the Mecca, but not certain.

OK Betty. I've made note of those for you.

Thanks Tink. I'll see if I can find adult ones.

Thanks Leslie!

Look what the cats dragged in today. This is on the deck after I opened the door to go out and it ran across my foot to beat me.




I just looked up and there was Sam with the thing in his mouth to bring it in again!

They almost look like salamanders.

Here's a photo of one on my back porch last year (at my old place)


The adults are usually not seen (they are the smart ones) but I have seen one once and they lose the blue color to the tail and there heads can be (not always) a reddish color. It would hang out under my grill with it's head sticking slightly out waiting on insects to land on the concrete.

I love some of the directions that I see daylilies going in. Not there yet but headed....

teeth on the sepals (benz one)

4 eyes with the outline on the midrib. Luddy is an artist so sees possibilities differently.

They are all beautiful. I love the last one. Mystic Image is a keeper too. It's on my list.

Thanks for all your hard work Michele. I'm sure hoping that you get some blooms on your babies. It will be a treat with each bloom you do get.

We need a May 2012 Blooms, this has become very long.

Yes we do need a May thread. I was thinking when I posted the photos, my days are running together and I didn't realize it was May 1st

Beautiful flowers!!!!
