Daylilies & hardy hibiscus

Thanks! I wasn't thinking of pairings when I ordered, but they seed pretty natural. They're only temporary, of course...those 10 fans of Summer Blush will only put up with shared space for so long lol.

Larry said the same thing about his GH Wild daylily orders. Tiny...but healthy. They actually looked pretty darn good, if small. A few "past date" roots had to be pruned off, but otherwise pretty rambunctious root systems all around. Soooo many roots in those 10 little Summer Blush plants!

I've been pleased with my GH Wild plants. They're definitely smaller than Breeze, for example, or even Oakes or Rita Bee's or even the monsters I got Along the Fence Daylilies in MI late last summer. I'm actually really excited to see what my 10 unnamed spiders and 10 unnamed regulars look like.

If I'm not nuts about em, I'll plant em at school or gift them to friends/colleagues. After all, almost everyone's mailbox gets full sun...and almost everyone's gonna need a pick-me-up by late summer.
Hardy hibiscus are a hobby, but daylilies are an obsession.
