We moved to a new to us house almost 11 years ago and there wasn't but one perennial on this property.... a clump of hosta by the back door. The previous owners had been in the house 13 years!!!!! So eventually I have added three huge flower gardens to the property, two of which are high sun gardens and house my daylilies.
I didn't realize that I was a collector of daylilies until this year when suddenly I realized that I had a ton of them. My originals include Stella D'Oros, Little Girl, Gentle Shepherd, Siloam Double Classic, Regal Air, and several NOID's that were given to me or I lost the tags to. Early on, I also added Custard Candy, El Desperado, Final Touch, Sue Rothbauer and Frans Hal.
One of my favorites is one that is called "Show Winner" that I got in a bag at Walmart. It is beautiful, purple and blooms and blooms and blooms. No idea what it really is, but it is a great flower.
I still have all of the above, except for maybe Frans Hal, since it hasn't bloomed in a few years. I am adding a new boarder garden this fall and have 33 new varieties of daylilies to add to this new garden.
