today's best

Selman's are rediculously prolific bloomers:

Jazz After Five - another clump shot: It looks more pink than true life...I guess I need to adjust white balance again. These were shot on auto today:

And You Glow Girl: I love this color -

Etosha:

Another bloom on Tree Turtles:

FFO on Hard Times: Murphy special from last year:

{{gwi:785018}}

And the clump of North Wind Dancer that will be divided this year:

{{gwi:785020}}

I am liking this bonus from John Shooter more all the time. It is a good bloomer, and it has huge blooms.

    Wow! That Jazz After Five clump is spectacular. That's definitely going on the wish list I'm not supposed to have. LOL I could plant it with Smooth Jazz and some other musically named daylilies.

    Wow, you've moved into your late bloomers or at least some are. I love seeing HARD TIMES and TREE TURTLES as I got those last year also but thankfully they are not blooming YET and I prefer that they wait so I have blooms later LOL! That clump shot of Jazz After Five gets my vote for best pictures. Its a stunner. But my pick of favorite daylily of the group goes to YOU GLOW GIRL. I love it!!!

    Remember when you would say something about YOU GLOW GIRL and I would always comment wondering if I have it? Well, I do. Bob Selman sent it to me as a bonus because I know I didn't order it. But I had bought a bunch of others. So mine is not blooming yet. It's just that I found the plant in the driveway slope garden after all my wondering if I had it.

    Thank you for the kind comments.

    Jazz after Five is a Selman, but I got it and You Glow Girl, and Blue Corn Moon from Marietta last year due to price considerations. All three have performed beautifully with wonderful bloom.

    Clown Parade has been such a bloomer for me, that I bought those three plus Carolina Sugar Daddy last year (CSD was from Blueridge). It has also exceeded my expectations for a first year bloom by quite a lot. All four have given multiple clumps this year.

    Vickie, as I said, I have been really amazed at the bloom on these one year old plants.

    Debra, Jazz After Five should go on your list. It would fit with some of the beauties you already have.

    Rita. Yep. They are almost all at least blooming now. I have one or two that are just in spikes, but most of them are blooming. I'll be done long before August this year.

    I'm glad you had You Glow girl since it is such a pretty color and good bloomer.

    Kathy,
    Go ahead and get it. It's only $75 at Marietta and it is a fabulous bloomer. (I have no interest financial or otherwise in Marietta - just a pretty good price)
