FORSYTH PEARL DROPS

Clump of WIND FRILLS I love this one.

I think I've posted a pic of this before, but I think it's really neat.

HEART OF JADE





That's it for now.

    Lrae, WIND FRILLS is my favorite in this group...but all are pretty. HEART OF JADE doesn't look real...it looks like a sculpture...very cool. Thanks for sharing,

    Lrae - The Wind Frills clump is my very favorite, but I also like Winter Frost a lot too.

    Love that Wind Frills! Heart Of Jade looks like a must have to me!

  • 18 years ago

    Thanks for your comments.

    Wind Frills is such a beauty.

    Heart Of Jade is really hard to photograph, on my camera at least. That is the REAL color of it. I think I've taken a hundred picures of it, and not many have been the correct color.

    Wind Frills was my first spider, or UF or whatever she is and I feel head over heals in love at first site. I got it as a bonus, very tiny, and it took 3 years for the first bloom. I spotted it out of my bathroom window and liked to have broke my neck trying to see what it was!!! She's still on the top for me and your photo is beautiful!!!

    I also like Heart of Jade, it's unknown to me until now but I'm going to be looking at this one. I love the veins. Thanks for sharing your beauties, Mona

    I should have checked you post before I posted. I hope they like Wind Frills because I just posted it also. I like it and I also like your Heart of Jade. It is different and I love the color

    Forsyth Pearl drops does almost look like a pearl, unusual color I like it! I NEED Wind Frills!

  • 18 years ago

    Heart of Jade is beautiful.

    Mona,
    Wind Frills does kind of invoke that whiplash effect!

    Tom,
    I enjoyed your pic of WF. I think everyone likes her.
    I liked HOJ too because it's different.

    ngraham,
    FPD is a really 'glowy' daylily. It's hard to capture the color. And yes, you do NEED WF.

    maximus,
    HOJ is really pretty in a clump. I haven't been able to get a clump shot that comes out the right color.

    Thanks to you all for looking.

    There's Wind Frills again!

    Just saw Tom's in his post - I guess that's a sign to add it to my wish list.

    ALL your blooms are gorgeous!

    Thanks for sharing,

    I have to join the herd and say that Wind Frills is # 1, with Heart of Jade following up in 2nd. The others are really nice too though.

  • 18 years ago

    Oh, Lrae, I love Heart of Jade. It is very unusual, and I just had to add that to my wish list. Your Wind Frills is really lovely -- am still hoping mine will bloom this year.
    Winter Frost is really beautiful, too.

    Thanks everyone.
    My opinion is that EVERYONE
    NEEEEEEEDS to grow Wind Frills.

    Lrae

  • 18 years ago

    I do really, really like it. I mean WIND FRILLS. So if we all need to grow it, where did you get it?

  • 18 years ago

    Rita,
    I purchased my WF from the daylily farm that is local. It's only open to the public in June and July.
    Maybe someone else who grows it has a good source.
    Hope you can find her.

    Lrae I just love Heart of Jade, Echoes of Mercy and Wind Frills. I bought Wind Frills about three years ago and had it in my front yard and the deer got to it. I plant all of my daylilies now in my backyard which is fenced in and have not replaced it yet. Couple of questions for you. Where did you get Echoes of Mercy? I haven't heard that one before and how did you get the names of your daylilies on the pictures like that?

    Rita, I got my Wind Frills from Linda at somethingnewgardens.com and I highly recommend her. She used to just sell on Ebay and that is when I started buying from her and she got her website together about a year or so ago. I have never been disappointed in her plants. She always has sent me large healthy fans and she is a really nice lady.

    Dianne,
    I bought ECHOES OF MERCY last year from Slightly Different Nursery. You can google it and get the website.

    I hope you can get Wind Frills replaced by next season. Thanks for telling Rita where to find her. I hope she looks at this post again.

    I put the names on the pictures with a program 'Adobe Photo Shop Elements 4.0'. It's a light version of the more expensive Photo Shop. I like it for putting the names on. There's a whole lot more that can be done with it BUT, it's one of those things I haven't had a whole lot of time to play around with and figure out. I just to be able to put the names directly on the pics because sometimes I can't remember who is who. Imagine that!

    Thanks for looking at my post.

    I did look at this post again and am going to put it on my wish list which is in my computer along with notes like were to get it if known. I am just not buying any more this year as I want to evaluate what I have gotten and order again in the fall for spring. Tired of planting this year, I have done an aweful lot this spring.

  • 18 years ago

    Lrae, WF is a favorite here too! My only problem with her is that she is steril as a pod parent for me. It doesn't matter what I put on her! However, I have a seed pod or two with her pollen. She is lovely as they all are....Ellie

  • 18 years ago

    Rita,
    Glad you saw this. Hope you can get WF for next spring.

    Ellie,
    It will be interesting to see what comes out of her pollen.
