OH MY GOD how did I miss this post??? Well so much for not posting here much anymore. Sometimes I get so busy I forget to check posts. Dragonfly Dawn is my favorite daylily. I kept getting more of it each year since 2012. I now have FIVE clumps of it since it sets pods so easily and I sell seeds. I think I have enough now, this year I got about 130 pods on it. This was a banner year for me with 1000 pods total, the most ever for my little back yard garden.

I'm older and not much energy anymore to plant seedlings. But a couple of years ago I planted 12 seeds from Dragonfly Dawn x Waves of Joy. This spring I had a gorgeous one bloom that had a green cast to it. The pattern wasn't that in your face but it had beautiful pastel colors. It is very difficult for me to photograph it and capture the green overlay. But here is my best effort. I actually sold some seeds from it on the auction.

I have seen some beautiful seedlings from Dragonfly Dawn x Cobalt Rings from two different people on Facebook.

So here are some of my favorite pictures of Dragonfly Dawn. I keep taking more of it every year since it is such a showoff.
