    Up Against the sun and Bob Marley. I really like both of them. Is Bob Marley just a long bloomer or blooming late or reblooming?

    Today I choose Up Against The Sun, Final Destination and Two Janes. I like Goldner Seedling and Olallie Mack too.
    So you still have very lates which are going to start even later?

    Kay, neither are reblooms. Just about the last of the season blooms on them. I would say they both start mid late around here. I find this year as the daylilies are more mature, being in the garden longer, the bloom periods on many are turning out to be a long time this year. Or maybe the weather is just perfect for them this year. Who knows why?

    nat- Amazing isn't it to have FFO open to post? I am really pleased. And yes, I STILL have ones that have not opened first flowers as yet. Love those extra late bloomers.

    My pick today is Bob Marley. I think you've posted others photos, but this one really caught my eye. Two Janes also looks like a beautiful color.

    I have posted BOB MARLEY before but it is having it's last flowers and I think it is so pretty.

Well,I did have another FIERY MOMENT bloom today,and it still has some buds left.I really dont know how anything can survive in this heat, much less bloom too.

    I'm with Jean, today. Final Destination and Two Janes are my favorites. I wish I had some more just starting. The scape on Last Chance for Romance is coming up ever so slowly.

    Two Janes is a nice bright color (don't know how that name was chosen).

    I like Two Janes and your Goldener yellow seedling. Avedon

    Lots of great flowers! I think Up Against the sun and Bob Marley are my favorites, great pic of Final Destination too.
    I like the picture of MIGHTY CONNOR LUCAS too, with the zinnia poking its head in to get in the shot :)

    Jean- It is really nice here lately. I just don't know how you guys down south can stand all that heat that never ends.

    Debra- MY LAST CHANCE FOR ROMANCE should bloom soon.

    mantis and Avedon, Thanks! I always thought TWO JANES was an odd name for it myself but oh well.

    Nancy- I didn't even think about the zinnia when I took the picture. But they are all color co-ordinated as if the zinnia was saying wait for me and squeezed in.

    Bob Marley and Up Against the Sun are my favorites, but I really like Finale Destination and Sellstation Friendship too.

    I like the color on Two Janes, but my favorite is Ollalie Mack. The blended colors are nice.

    It's great that you are just now getting ffo's. Nice season extenders:)

    So nice to see such beautiful blooms this late in the season, Finale Destination and Sellstation Friendship are my favorites for Fri.

    Thanks, Val, Vicki and Linda. Believe me FFO this late in the season are really appreaciated. But I am really happy to go around and look at all the late blooming sections, otherwise things would look pretty bare around here.
