Fewer Today

15 years ago

It is the depressing time when there are a lot fewer blooms. The fact that the mid-lates are blooming and the very-lates are budded doesn't affect that.

Imperial Elegance is in rebloom...which is good:

Great planning putting Blueberry Breakfast in front of real blueberry bushes for a real blueberry breakfast LOL! It is always sad when the blooms start winding down. But you sure have have a fantastic bloom season. You have to be very pleased and proud of your daylilies. Imperial Elegance is my favorite. Great picture and I love the color.

ETOSHA is very striking. I have very much enjoyed ALL your posts and the time you've taken to post them. Sometimes I didn't have a chance to comment but I did view them all. You are definitely an enabler as my lists have grown LOL.

It's always sad when bloomiseason starts dying down, but it looks like you still have plenty of blooms to go with the lates and rebloom. You have had so many gorgeous flowers this year.
Imperial Elegance is striking--love the green throat and big purple eyezone.

Etosha is my favorite today. Such bright, vivid colors! In looking at these, it struck me that the one you said was not marked looks more like Photon Torpedo than the one you have labeled at PT. Check the Tinker's photos and see what you think. Are the blueberries ripe yet? They look very tasty.

Hello everyone. Yes, the bluberries are getting ripe. I have so far gotten about 7 quarts and made muffins five times. There should be many more quarts of blueberries before they are finished ripening.

As many of you have mentioned, I have had an excellent bloom season, but I just have to complain for a few minutes. I am planning to move a lot of them, so I will be busy when it cools a bit.

Bigack, Rita, and Val, I have two clumps of Imperial Elegance in different areas and they are both re-blooming.

Next year, I hope to have done a little planning in reference to my blooms. the current matchings are (other than by hybridizer) toally accidental. That doesn't include Blueberry Breakfast next to the Blueberries. I was moving to the general area, and it was a natural...I'm glad you like it.

Debra, I have always loved Etosha, and I'm glad you like it too. It is one of my very favorite Munsons. I will check on that plant. I had seen several postings that showed it colid red rather than Bicolor, so it may be the big red one that was misnamed (the other one was Dean Marie's sister).

Kay - Both photos on Tinker's show Photon Torpedo as a bitone, and I believe Maximus has posted photos of it looking like a bitone too.

IMPERIAL ELEGANCE has such a beautiful rich color. It is definitely my favorite of this bunch. I'm surprised how much I like ETOSHA, since I usually don't like oranges much, but this one is really pretty.

I also love Imperial Elegance, but Etosha is an eye catcher. You seem to still have lots to share, thanks for all your postings.

Hey, I've got a possible identification on the one you titled Photon Torpedo. I looked like another Hanson to me. Do you remember ordering Women Seeking Men? Maximus has posted that one several times, and I've cosidered by that one in the past. It grows darker in the North, but there are several Internet photos where it looks almost identical to your photo. Does it have a tall scape. Women Seeking Men is registered at 41 inches.
