Photos of My Daylilies
Here are pictures of most of the daylilies I grow. Some of them have not bloomed for me yet! I will try to keep adding my new daylilies as I get their pretty faces on film. I hope these beauties can serve as an inspiration for all those daylily collectors out there!

Last Final, First Bloom

Best Blogger Tips



Whew.  Today was my last school final... and boy am I whooped!  I am glad it was my last test too because I was greeted this morning with my first bloom!  Now I will have the time to take photos and see all my seedlings bloom!

It was one of my seedlings from HALF MOON KEY X MUSICAL MEDLEY.  It has a great scape and the flowers are opening nicely... it does have a pointy sepal that I will have to keep an eye on.  I love that it is a bitone and the piecrust edges.

I also found one of my CV's blooming - MIAMI HEAT.  This baby sure puts on a great show every year.  Glad I put it by the driveway so that I can see it when I drive up.













Can't wait to see what this summer will bring!

Many, many scapes!

Best Blogger Tips
 Still going with keeping track of what is scaping in the gardens.  I think I may put these in an excel spreadsheet to better see any trends.  If I can keep up, maybe the dates over a few years would be very interesting.

More Scapes Up! (Creative, huh?)

Best Blogger Tips
Alright, fighting the wind and wearing my rain boots (yippee!!), I walked the garden this morning to find more scapes!  I can't wait for blooms.  I guess, technically, Stella is blooming... so that would be my first blooms, but do do you count your Stellas?  :o)

The daylilies in highlighte in purple are the ones that I found up today...
