    Love all the bright colors. Heron's Cove is sure showy. Hush Little Baby and Half Moon Key are both such a glowing hot pink. I like them. Heavenly Angel Ice is a really nice looking spider. And then there's Holy Guacamole. I know Holy Guacamole was/is very expensive, but it's certainly a good looking ruffly daylily. Does it have a hard time opening I wonder?

  • 17 years ago

    Jan,
    Homeplace Angel Face is really pretty! Looked it up but couldn't find anyone selling it. I'm hoping to go to Cindy's garden this summer. She's not too far from us.

    I have Happy Hooligan as well. Don't have a good picture though. It hasn't performed well here. How does your HH do there? If it doesn't get better this year I'll move it.

    Love everyone's pictures! I've added quite a few to my wishlist.

    Michelle

  • 17 years ago

    I don't have many daylilies that begin with "H." And I don't have pictures for some that I do have. But, here's a few H's:

    Maryl, Holy Gaucamole has not had any problems opening here in our Western PA garden. Even wben the evenings were getting cooler, it still opened like a champ. It also set pods pretty easily.

    Linda

  • 17 years ago

    Michelle...Last season was HH's first in my garden. I'll be able to give you more feedback after this year. It was only 1 fan when I got it, so I'll see if it's increased any this spring.
    Hope you can visit Cindy's garden, I'm sure it is spectacular.

    I am not proud. I will be the third person to post Heavenly Angel Ice.

    {{gwi:647660}}

  • 17 years ago

    One H for me to add. the repeats are a good thing, this is a case where too many cooks make the soup better.

    This is Hint of Blue.

    I'm not proud, either. Terrific photo of Heavenly Angel Ice, Edward.

    Here are a couple from Cat Lady's Garden. The only "h" in my garden is "Highland Lord" and my only pix is of a singled bloom.

    Love to see your pictures. Some real lookers.

    Jan, I love your Harmonious Simplicity.

    Keep 'em coming!

  • 17 years ago

    Oh, you folks are killing me with all these beautiful photos. One of these days (years) I'm going to learn how to post pictures too.

    Chris is that pink plant with Harmononius Simplicity bee balm? I got to get me some of whatever it is.

    Thanks ya'll and please keep posting all these wonderful photos. It sure helps passs the days looking at them instead of looking at blank gardens.....

    Happy Gardening, Marian

  • 17 years ago

    Marian -- Yes, that's bee balm. I don't know the name of that variety, but I have lots of different colors throughout the garden. It spreads like crazy, but it's easy to pull out what you don't want. I like that it blooms at the same time as the daylilies.

  • 17 years ago

    Lovely photos everyone!

    Sue,
    I planted Hush Little Baby on my mother's grave last year. I sure hope it looks as good as yours when it blooms!

    Thanks Linda for answering me on Holy Guacamole. I was so afraid my computer would time out before I could say thank you. I don't hybridize so the all important question to me is how is its garden performance. HG will stay on my list of probables until the price comes down......That Heavenly Angel Ice keeps getting better and better. Thanks for another picture Edward.

  • 17 years ago

    I would say that Heavenly Angel Ice is one of the top 10 in my garden: possibly top 5.

    Edward

  • 17 years ago

    About Heavenly Angel Ice - let me add that it is great performer here too. I bought mine from a local friend. Thanks Lilynut! And last year was it's first year here. It sent up two scapes, I set pods on it, got to use the pollen, and it sent up increase fans by late fall. You can't ask much more from a daylily than that. While my flowers bloomed on short scapes, I just enjoyed looking at them so much. I love the color and shape too. I highly recommend it.

    Linda

  • 17 years ago

    I don't think it hurts to see duplicates on any of these ABC's. As Tweetypie mentioned on another thread going now, they look different even for the same gardener. Thanks.

    Here is a link that might be useful: {{gwi:647554}}

  • 17 years ago

    I'm having the luck of the Irish today to still be able to pull this up so here goes. Can you tell me if Heavenly Angel Ice is a true white? Compared to Joan Senior how white is it for instance?.....And I agree about posting multiple pictures. Particularly if your picture differs from the others already posted (for good or ill). There are three Hillbilly Hearts on this thread and the background color ranges from yellow to parchment to white. Of course it could be showing the bloom aging during the day, but things like that can make a difference on whether or not I like a daylily.

  • 17 years ago

    I think how a daylily looks in different gardens/lighting/soil is very informative...

  • 17 years ago

    Sorry maryl, but I do not have many whites to compare. It looks very white to me with a vivid green in the throat. The colour combination is the exact same as Last Snowflake in my garden. It is much whiter than Victorian Lace.

    {{gwi:647683}}

    {{gwi:647684}}

  • 17 years ago

    I'd say they are both stunning and the different shapes play off each other. Both are on my list now. Thank you Edward for answering my questions and posting such beautiful photos......Maryl

  • 17 years ago

    Here's another one I forgot about--from Cat Lady's Garden

    {{gwi:647685}}

  • 17 years ago

    Maryl - About Hillbilly Heart, it's one that temperature affects a lot. Between 6 and 8 a.m., it's a very light parchment cream with a pinkish red eye and border. After the sun shines on it a few hours and the temps heat up, it turns much darker yellow with a darker red eye and edge.

    HILLBILLY HEART the way I love to see it early in the a.m.

    Jan - I've never seen a photo of High Priestess before. The coloration reminds me of Cherry Cheeks. I really like it!

    Debra

  • 17 years ago

    Debra, it's kind of hard to find probably because it's very slow to increase, at least it has been for me. I promised Ida my first increase, and that was a couple years ago. Still no increase unless it does so this spring.
    I love the color too and plan to see if I can use it in my program and hopefully get something that's similar in color but a much better preformer!
