I hope you are right javaMom. I just remembered we had frost warnings in the middle of May followed by several days of unseasonal chilly temps here. I think i may be seeing frost bite as most of the problem starts down low on the plant and others at the tips. Overall my plants are the bushiest i have ever seen them because of all our rainfall. Like i said this the first solid week w/o rain since the start of spring.
Just in case though, i really need to start lining my plants out better and use my new spaces to further this along. So i will be really picky about newbies this year.
Secondly i need some new 2 ft. watering wands so i can water the soil and not the plant. These cost about 20 bucks each and i get maybe 3 years use out of them. One for now and a second one for fathers day?
I do have a aphid problem though so its Malithion time if thats how its spelled? Never had this before but they are on several plants.
In closing i never really said hello to all of you and how excited i am to be back right before BLOOM time. I added 60 new plants last year and promptly lost some tags but no problem there as i know what i have just not exactly where it is. Lol.
Sorry for the novel, hopefully some of you love reading.
SO MANY DAYLILYS, SO LITTLE LAND
