Some of you might enjoy reading my blog post from last summer when I visited Region 9 for their Regional meeting, and stayed with Betty at their house. They had a garden tour of Ned's and Betty's garden on Sat. and I was able to get out and get images of a lot of Ned's daylilies ( actually early Sat. AM before the tour.) . Personally, I love Ned's daylilies, grow a large collection of them and was surprised to note that in the arid Colorado climate, some of them look different there. It was a real treat to visit with Ned's family and even daughter Betty's Sheepdog, who was visiting for the weekend! The one pic I regret not getting was to get Allison to pose beside her namesake that was really showing off when I was there.

Two of my favorites of Ned's that aren't very widely grown are in the group Ned called his "RFFs" or "refugees from Florida." They originally grew in Dan Hansen's garden but had to be moved as they were too dormant for the area.
This one is called, 'I Ain't Nevah'
and the second was named for Betty's college sorority! This is 'Tri Sigma Love.'
