    I may try to hunt down the Calgary Stampede. I love the burst of yellow from the center. Almost like lines being drawn outward. Where did you get it, if its okay to ask?

    I love the cheap ones as much as any expensive one I may buy. It's the flower that sells me. I have to do a double take on some prices of daylilies. I'm not ready for that big ticket item yet. Let me expert on my cheap ones :-).

    I want to say it was rondas or hemnut from the LA.Both are great to buy from.So far everthing I have ordered from either has come up true to name.That makes me less worried about not getting what I ordered when I order from them.Had to wait a year to see some of them bloom.Another great one is algardengal.

    Love the color on the first one, but they are all beautiful. Luckily for most of us the cost does not affect their beauty!

    I have a lot of the older ones too. Love the price and the blooms are just as pretty. I'm excited to see swirling waters, it's new to me this year and I hope it turns out as nice as yours. Love wispy rays! That one is going on my need to get list. My husband is into reds this year. C- star is a nice lavender. Another I would like to have. Nice pics thanks alot for sharing with us.

    Hi Jill,

    Your flowers and pics are really lovely. I've been trying to get Wispy Rays but every time I order it, they are sold out. I love Swirling Waters -- gotta get that one. I have Country Cavalier -- looks a lot like Small Tempest -- and it just lights up my garden.

    About cheap plants: I have them growing side by side with very pricey ones. They are just as beautiful, and a lot less money.

    Nancy, It took me till the 2nd time ordering from a different LA seller to get swirling waters. I have only had bad luck with one seller on LA and it was she sent me something else besides swirling water and I emailed her and she was supposed to send a replacement but never did. But I guess I am 1 of those customers you will only hear from twice then I just dont order from them anymore. It did not bloom till the following year so I could not email her about it till a year later. It took forever to get my order from her, had to have Mike handle the seller and she sent my order then one was wrong and there was no way for me to know till it bloomed.

    Boy, I am glad Swirling Water is cheap, 'cause I want it and the purse strings are tight around here! :o) I love the white flowing edge. Been drooling over that Wispy Rays too... What a beauty it is!

    Jill,
    Your pics are beautiful. I NEED to get that CARULEAN STAR!
    The daylilies that we call 'cheap', sometimes are worth more in the garden setting than those that are 'cutting edge' and pricey. It seems to me that the 'cheap' ones are a lot more hardy, a lot LESS fussy, and seem to bloom no matter what. I love the oldies.
    Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful pictures.

    Lovely, Jill! Isn't this time of year fun? I saw Small Tempest in Houston and really liked it! I think that was the first time I became aware of it...I know you will enjoy it as it was just beautiful in a clump!

    It's great to see your pictures!

    Very pretty photos - thanks for sharing them! Your Swirling Water looks a lot like Indian Giver to me - all the other photos of Swirling Water I've seen don't have a white edge. I had Indian Giver and it is a very pretty flower which increased quickly and rebloomed for me.
