I got 2 more orders in today. I have 2 from Fred, aka Spunky1. I was so happy to win 2 fans of Italian Kakeidoscope. When I first unboxed them, I didn't notice, but one fan was actually 3 fans. The big fan had divided into 3 fans plus I had the 2 fan to make 4 fans for the price of 2. Happpppy!!!! Then I opened up 2 huge fans of Lillian's Alabama Sunrise. This one I'm hoping to get many good seed from.

Of course, being so excited, I forgot to take pictures until after they were potted. The plants are huge, the roots are huge. Fantastic plants all the way around.

The 7gal pot with one fan and the 3gal are Italian Kaleidoscope. The 2fans in the 7gal pot are Lillian's Alabama Sunrise:

I also got a package in from Ken Johnson, aka Kendaylily. I got three fans of Fox Hunter which were very big full grown plants. . I bought 2 sets of seedlings. I bought 2 packages of seedlings last fall that I received before he stopped shipping for the winter. The 2 sets that I got in today were 2 additonal purchases. The reason I'm telling you this, these are small seedlings. I knew they were small. He shows pictures of the size of the seedling on the Lily Auction. Since I had already gotten 2 sets of these seedlings, there was no surprise in them being small. If I feed and water generously, they will bloom next year. I am well pleased with his plants and his seedlings. I will probably buy more this fall. Another, Happy happy purchase!!

The first photo is of 3 fans of Fox Hunter:

I'm tired and happy that it's raining nice and slow. No storm so far. I sure hope none of the folks in south Ms or over in Louisianna have any really bad weather. It look ruff on the radar at 6pm.

Blessings to all, Mona
