OMG....These pictures are all just fantastic. Love Happy Happy. I brought Happy Happy last year, and it did not bloom. This year it has a scape. So excited.

We have had so much rain up here in Vermont, that we are setting all time records for rainfall in May and June, that have never been recorded before. 10 inches of rain so far in June. It's no longer a nuisance, now it is causing flooding in the Valleys and towns. Farmers are seeing their fields of crop threatened by pools of water.I am helped a little because I live on the side of Mt Lincoln (better known as Sugarbush), and all the rain goes downhill. Many of my lilies are finally growing scapes, but I am still a few weeks away from the start of our bloom season. However, some of my newbie plants are blooming this week. They have only been planted for 7 weeks.

Many thanks to Michele for the first two plants shown here. Healthy, hardy, happy fans.

Barbara Mandrell - This is the 3rd flower on this plant. The first 2 flowers were bi-color....yellow and red. Thought I was sent the wrong plant. Slowly, it's finding it's true color. Should be beautiful next year. Also, stunted scapes on this plant. Tons of buds.
