I have not posted here much recently, I have been really busy trying to relocate my pot area, adding sprinklers and timers, lining out daylilies for the auction, along with the daily honeydos. I even got Kathleen on the lawnmower for a couple of days, she had not been on one since I retired almost eight years ago. Its a new mower and much different and larger than what we had so it was a long learning curve the first day, but she did good once she got over the fear of the new machine.
Here on the Gulf Coast you never put your daylilies to bed for the winter, theres always something that needs to be done. Fall and winter is when I really push the seedlings for growth so we will see them bloom in less than one year. These were planted around the end of August and most are 12" to 14" tall now. They will start blooming at seven months old, around March if we have a normal winter. The ones in the far bed were planted September of 2010 and most bloomed this year.
