I am in zone 5. And just yesterday I found some scapes! Stella has a couple now, and also one that I received a couple of weeks ago - Westbourne Blackberry Cobbler. I hate to cut any scapes off it, because I want to see it! It is an EM.
I know my iris are 2-4 weeks ahead of schedule. I have purposely concentrated on late daylilies because I want blooms in August and September. But last year 90% of my lates bloomed in July (many were first year plants - so I forgave them) but this year, I am afraid I once again, am going to be all bloomed out by mid- August.
So the only hope I am holding out for late in the season reblooms. Last year I had one, but I had to keep it protected from the cold. But with a longer growing season this year, perhaps.... ~Jan
