I'm glad some blooms survived the driveway mishap

Kathryn Caldwell/Dragonfly Dawn #7--FFO--and the second large flower to open in 2024. This plant has 15 scapes.

A couple more.

I just love seeing all these April beauties! This one was a surprise early opener that I didn't notice until late afternoon - my first bloom of the season.

It's a toothy intro, but not much toothiness showing this early. But it was still thrilling to see a daylily bloom here with all our up-and-down weather we've been having so far this spring.

I had hoped to see scapes on my Whooperee by now, but can't see anything yet.

my first bloom on Whooperee got battered by the rain

How disappointing, Alma!

So many lovely blooms. I especially like the look of Butterscotch Ruffles and Misty Mountains Cold.

Endless Heart FFO
finally adapted to my TX climate

Angel On A Cloud FFO/FFE for me. Not sure it is fully open.

Those are beauties, Dave!

And Larry--I want to compliment you on that lovely photo of Petticoat Frills.

Here are some of today's blooms:

Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow, second bloom

Finally heavy thunderstorms were predicted, so I got out early and took photos, and did what few garden chores I had, brought in the mower and all the tools. Then I went inside to download and label all the photos. Wow, 2/10ths of an inch of rain, what a downpour that was. So disappointed.
