My mind is stuck on the thermometer reading this morning...twenty-two below
First term this morning is Throat. A brief explanation of throat is the colored area in the center of the bloom that surrounds and contains the stamen and pistil.
Little Bo Peep Diploma has a small bright green throat.
Mandarin Firecracker has an orange throat...
and Three Rivers Gold a yellow throat.
After starting my daylily seedlings inside over the winter in treetrays I transplant them outside in May. Transplanting is always a fun time, warm sun, radio blasting and all the cross tags to read while planting... wondering what the seedlings will look like when they bloom the next year.
