Just a couple of new ones today, and others that get to return, and something with blue. Avedon

Brand new, a bonus plant, and I'm not sure if I like it or not. This is Catcher In The Eye

Brand new pic this year--FFO on Sunday Gloves, How nice it opened on Sunday. It will get better as time goes by.

Rose Emily Twins. For a long time I thought this was Ming Porcelain, but now I know for sure. This is a good plant.

The daylily from J. Carpenter I named for my mother. Finally, have managed to get a good picture.

Seedling I will probably name for my sister.

I guess this is the "old" This is Hall's Pink from 1952, I think. Couldn't resist this clump shot this morning. They just looked so cheerful.

Joan Senior clump shot

Destined To See Clump Shot

Persian Market Clump Shot

The blue is in the blue salvia in this garden shot. The daylily in the background is Hyperion which is now putting up scapes.

More blue--blue salvia and in the foreground, our dwarf blueberry bush and I have already picked some. They are yummy!

I wish this were a better photo so the clearwing hummingbird moth is more visible. It just loves the blue plumbago and getting a picture is very hard, butterflies are easier.

Your daylilies are all so pretty, I love those clump shots, and the photos of your garden. I need to check my blueberries I guess. Should be too early for them, but with everything so early I need to keep an eye on them. They are out back, need to check the cherry trees too!
I got a new hummingbird feeder, saw my first hummer of the year last week.

I just love those blue salvia you have there. I see those hummingbird moths in my garden upon occasion. Funny things. Nice clumps of daylilies you have going. Rose Emily Twins are my favorite, Very pretty twins.

Hall's Pink is surely a pretty one which I don't think I've seen before. And I love the salvia.

Okay, lets see what's blooming at your house. Those moths really have an unreal look to them, don't they? I have never see one in life, only in pics.

You know I l;ove clumps, so this is a super post...I think I like hypernion best, but all clumps are beautiful. Your plumbago has such a bright color to it.

Very nice garden shots. Love the blue as it's so hard to come by. I have never noticed a moth like that here. Ummm..I'll have to watch!! Ellie

The clump shots are wonderful. We too have the hummingbird moths here. They show up or at least I start to see them when the butterfly bush is in bloom near the front porch.

Sunday Gloves and your seedling are my favorite. I love white, and that mauve is so unusual looking! The moths really are hard to catch. Mine always end up looking like big blurs, so you did pretty fantastic! I love all of the extra pictures people post of their "critters" and gardens.

Beautiful shots of your DL's I think my favorites are Sunday Gloves and the seedling you want to name for your sister. You are quite the photographer being able to get the shot of the moth.
