I like everyone of these, so I can't pick a favorite. I hope we get some rain here today or tomorrow. I do have quite a few putting up rebloom scapes, but more rain would probably mean more rebloom.

I suspect that has something to do with re-bloom here. We have been inundated with water. At least, the drought is broken and now none of the state is in drought anymore. I am glad Dragonfly Charmer bloomed. I had skillfully (not) broken the sole scape on it when I was weeding early this year, so when this scape came up, it meant I would get to see it anyway.

Look at all those purples. And as with Debra, Linda Beck likes you too. Linda and Laura must be in a clique from which I am` excluded as your Laura Harwood is looking so much better then mine ever did. A nice batch of rebloomers here........Maryl

Kay, rains come in for me tomorrow or Saturday. It certainly has helped with rebloom as some of my lilies have put up more rebloom scapes than original scapes!! I love you Laura Harwood. The color is so intense. And Spoken in Parables is lovely in that clump.

Kate

Lovely group of purples! Your Kansas City Kicker looks great. Mine is reblooming now as well, and the rebloom scapes are taller and are not leaning. Other favorites include Laura Harwood, Blue Ribbon Rodeo, and Spoken in Parables.

How would you evaluate Increased Complexity? Hard to beat Linda Beck.

Spoken In Parables is a winner. Clown Parade is always a favorite here. I'm with Maryl about Laura Harwood. It is on the toss list this year.....sadly.

Thank you for looking and commenting. The first time I saw Laura Harwood, Celeste had posted it, and I thought the blooms were so pretty. The first year I had it, it was disappointing with only a couple of mis-shaped blooms. Last year was better, but only because the blooms were good, but there weren't a lot of them. This year it has been tremendous. My first Spoken in Parbles was taken by the voles, and this one started out very good and, the heavy rains probably were the encouragement for it to put up three heavily budded rebloom scapes. Mantis, increased complexity is really good here. Its scapes are tall and stand up well, it is the first year for it, and bloomed a long time with a lot of blooms and is now in rebloom and put up either five or six rebloom scapes. Maryl, Linda Beck has always done well here. The blooms open early. I hate that if did not do well for you. Kate, that means re-bloom photos, right?

I know you and others are tiring of all the rain but after such a severe drought last year, I for one, am delighted about all ours. I haven't had to water my gardens at all so far this year and plants that were severely stressed are now lush and healthy again. You sure have had wonderful rebloom! Your Laura Harwood looks just wonderful. I hope you will have plenty more bloom to further extend your season.

Wow, love all the purples. Spoken In Parables is always good for me. Send the rain here, I expect to see us on the drought monitor pretty soon.
