A great way to start a new thread. Love the photos.
Hey have you counted all those buds and blooms yet?

Lrae

Let the Magic begin.........

Houdini

Rocket City

Rocket City

BRB....Rick

I really appreciate continuity Great clump shots. I love Rocket City, bright and bold. I've had it for around 5 years.

Tom

ROCKET CITY is a favorite of mine also. I know its an oldie but I love it so who cares.

And a great orange for me, too. Doesn't matter how old it is . . .

Ice Blue is a Delight. Does that hydrangea reliably bloom in PA?

Kathy

Glad you enjoyed them Tom.
Also glad all of you enjoy Rocket City...I have many Old Daylilies....not many new ones...can't afford them...:)
Yes Kathy...I have had it here since 1995...does great as long as it gets a good drink.....I mulch it with pine needles(Acidic) each Winter...helps keep that nice ice blue.

Back to the flow.......:)

Autumn Red

Avante Garde

Baracuda Bay

Cantique

More to come....Rick

I'm wrapping it up for the night. Great pics. I shop price, the new ones will be cheaper in the future. There are too many excellant daylilies that I do not have that are reasonablely priced, and I cannot see paying a lot for a plant that you hope will make it in your garden.

Tom

P.S. I think you may have knocked off around a 100 in the last few days. Nose to the grindstone.

Wow, if I could take a vacation I'd go visit you at peak bloom time, your daylilies are incredible. Sometimes the best things in life are the old things. Thanks so much for sharing.

BTW, I adore Cantique, she is oh so lovely.

Sharon

Wow.That El Desperado Is a gorgeous thing,and just full of buds yet to bloom.Hope m ine looks like that one day. I like the Baracuda Bay, too.

Jean

I love Avante Guard. I have it in my yard, while it may not be the best bloomer I have, I find it very appealing. It is the only Moldovan cultivar which I have, but your Francis of Assisi photo the other day made that one rise near the top of my want list.

Thanks for the info on Blue Ice Delight, I will see if I can add that one to my ever growing hydrangea collection. If you do fall pruning and want to send me some prunings, I wouldn't object ;-).

Kathy

All of the pics are gorgeous! Just found the first thread and there were so many pics it made AOL put up an error nessage!LOL!!

Thanks Tom...I like your thoughts on adding the new ones...I wait too..LOL

Thanks Sharon....come on up and take a peek...4-8 July is peak here...:)

Thanks so much Jean

Kathy...thanks! Would be glad to send you some cutting's....remind me the first week or so of Sept.
Francis Of Assisi is beautiful...but IMHO it has a major fault...blooms in the foliage...a beautiful bloom but very low.

Sorry about putting the whammy on AOL Betsy..LOL I started this new thread to hopefully get it to load ok.:)

A few more .....

Childhood Treasure

Condilla

Dawn Piper

Duke Of Durham

Enjoy....more after Brunch...:)
Wake Up Tom!
Jan where ya at Gal???? Is It Raining?

Okay I'm awake now. It must be the pressure of needing to post all your pics in the next 2 months that is keeping you up at night. I slept like a baby last night (woke up every 2 hrs).

Great pic of Condilla, as well as the Duke. My camera doesn't like that bright gold of Condilla.

Tom

WOW Rick!!! You are such a showoff as well as El Desperado.
Just knock my eyes out AGAIN!!

Dot

WOW....what an assortment of lovelies!!! I will have to get Avante Garde, Baracuda Bay, and Duke Of Durham they are amazing looking DL's.

Linda

Oh my goodness, that El Desperado is amazing!! As usual, stunning pictures from you, Rick! .....you know, Rick....you should think about entering a daylily show sometime (maybe you do already?)....I bet you could walk out with some ribbons!

I'll look forward to seeing what you'll show us next!

Thank you Guy's so much...I appreciated the kind comments!
Nope GG....never entered and Daylily show....I appreciate it that you think I should...:) I just grow them for fun and my own pleasure....and of course to share with you guy's...:)

Time to post a few more.......

Flames Over Africa

Illini Show Girl

Julie Newmar

Mephistopheles

Potion For Passion

More after a bit...:) Hope you enjoy
Rick

Whoa!
You make it very hard to choose a favorite, when they keep coming and coming....but I sure am enjoying the show.
Seeing your OP of El Desperado gives me hope of keeping my ED. The blooms finally decided to open fully this year, so I'll keep it instead of throwing it in the woods! What a magnificant clump it has made in your garden!

I finally DID choose a favorite ~ Duke of Durham ~ What a vibrant splash of color that must make in your garden!

Enjoy your photos, as always,

Julie

How about a few more....

Requiem For Diana

Raspberry Sunshine

Red Line Fever

Shady Lady

More later...Rick

Didn't think I would pick Shady Lady, because of the color, but I kind of like her.

Red Line Fever is great also(almost anything red).

Tom

All the pictures are great!

Thanks!..:)

A Few More........

Wedding Band

Team Effort

Royal Exchequer

Waving Winds

Yo Rick...here I am!!!! LOL
DH is home so been spending most of my time with him. He's gone fishing so I'm playing catch up on all these wonderful photos of yours. Couldn't pick a fav if my life depended on it....loving them all. :)
Thanks for the show.
Jan

Bout time you woke up....Jan....:) Your Berry welcome...
Thanks Again....PFL...:)

A couple more......

Startle

Making Whoopee

Rolling Thunder

More tomorrow....Rick

Baracuda Bay

Heir Apparent

Pagan Ritual

Will start a new thread now...Hope you enjoyed.....Rick

I see you were burning the midnight oil again last night. Trying hopelessly to recover from the huge backlog of pictures that you have. All caused by slacking off so much at the start of the season.

Good shot of the Baracuda Bay clump

I have Heir Apparent, but mine is slow to multiply and not many blooms. Hope yours is better, especially since it's a Munson.

Nice pic of Pagan Ritual

Keep going

Tom

Lovely colours to gladden the soul. Wish my camera was a good un, on my wish list at the moment, all my pennies go on new babies LOL
I got startle this year, looking forward to seeing it in bloom

I don't think I've told you before, but I love seeing the pictures you post. They are so beautiful. I don't know how you and Tom manage to take so many pictures that look even better than most of the growers on-line catalogs.
Kay

Wow! Not only nice daylilies but you really have some great clump shots there. Baracuda Bay by itself is OK, but en mass - beautiful.

You are not caught up yet. You are just going to keep on posting more pictures if you hope to stay even.
