Blooming today

16 years ago

Its still pretty wild. The blooming has been long enough and pretty enough to convert DH form being a day lily hater to a day lily lover. It is sweet to hear him talk about how beautiful they look.

Mean as a Snake: Interesting Name for a pretty bloom:

Dress Blues: Prettiest I've ever had:

Beautiful, just beautiful. My favorite is Mean as a Snake. Such a lovely color and shape. Rather strange name though. I see your picture of You Glow Girl and I still wonder if I have that one (can't remember).

Wonderful photos! Jazz After Five is my favorite. I'd like to get that one and grow it with Smooth Jazz.

Oh Kay, you are so lucky that your husband has finally come around! I wish mine would. I think he secretly likes the flower gardens that I have, but just doesn't want to admit it.

I just love JAZZ AFTER FIVE and YOU GLOW GIRL. Awesome photography too! I plan on showing off more than just single blooms too... just as soon as I get them organized and uploaded. I know everybody here knows it, but that's a lot of work!

Thank you all for looking at Monday's beauties.
Rita, Renee, njmomma, and Sharon, I got Mean as a Snake from Marietta. It is a Shooter into. I loved the color and the silly name.

Laurel, you have to notice how much I love brights since I post them a lot. And yesterday I planted several new orange ones from Bill Maryott who also loves orange.

Debra,
I looked to see what Smooth Jazz looks like, and could find only Cool Jazz.

Renee, Jean, Edward, and Vickie.
I love Selman intros, and You Glow Girl and Jazz after Five came from Marietta since the price was a good bit better than the Blueridge price and I "had to have them". One thing about Selman plants, is they start blooming well quickly. This is the second year for both of those, and they are a lot of blooms, and a lot of blooming in clumps already!

Esward, I have added to my list after seeing some of your, so turn-about is fair play:)

Jazz After Five is my favorite here, but Mean as a Snake & Dress Blues are real close runners up!

Mean As A Snake and Jazz After Five are my favorites of this bunch. I like Bob's daylilies also. He's really a nice person too. You Glow Girl looks beautiful. I saw it in person this year, but it was in the afternoon and didn't look as good as your's. Great pictures!
