July's Blooms

Seems like I haven't posted my own daylilies, been on too many trips!!!! Here are a few of what has been blooming.

I will start with the great daylilies I brought home from Curt Hanson's. He cut the foliage but left the scapes on so I am enjoying the great blooms.

Here is Mask and Metaphor, I just love it.

Trahlyta, waited three years for this one.

Celestial Shore, long bloom time on this one!!

Mahogany Magic, has been a blooming machine and sending up rebloom scapes.

this is the prolif that I took from a local coffee shop several years ago, and it is now blooming.

The oriental lilies were wonderful this summer, the fragrance was like a candy factory

Bowie looks awfully relaxed.

Wow! You have magic growing there. What beautiful blooms! I love the reds and I love the purples, and I started trying to pick a favorite and couldn't do it!

What a successful trip you had! Your yard is going to be even prettier and it was already wonderful.

So glad to see Bowie is doing well and enjoying his summer. Been missing you garden and daylily pictures from home. The butterfly is lovely and the lilies are extra lovely. There are some really great daylily blooms. My favorites are From My Lips, Sacco and Vanzetti and the red NO ID coffee shop bloom.

Glad to see your Hanson's are blooming. I have several yet to open that I got from him but definitely happy with all of them.
As I was scrolling through your pics, I kept wondering where Bowie was. LOL. Glad to see he is enjoying himself in that beautiful garden.

All your flowers look great! Your Mask and Metaphor has much deeper coloration than mine. It's beautiful. I love all your Hansons, especially From My Lips, which is one I've never seen before. If you get any throat pinching on Sacco and Vanzetti, please post a pic. That's one on my possible buy list. Your butterfly photo is terrific! And Bowie is sure looking good this summer. He's got the right idea; just chill in the shade and take it all in.

I love Curt Hanson's cultivars, I grow Swallow Tail Kite. I have to add Mask and Metaphor to my wish list, I see why you love it, it is gorgeous! Carnival in Brazil grows here and another of my favorites, just love the colors in it. What a FANTASTIC butterfly pic and Bowie looks like he has really enjoyed his summer. I adopted a new kitty today, my daughter's friend brought him this morning. Kind of wild since it is one of the kittens of stray cat in their neighborhood. It has been living under their porch. He is about two months old, we named him GANGSTA...LOL
LOVE all your pics Cindy!

I really like Mystery Achievement and Sacco and Vanzetti. I also got Carnival in Brazil just this week from Maryott's as a bonus (asked for it). It looks gorgeous.
