All American Chief with Planet Claire

Cloud of Witnesses - new last fall...not sure why I bought this now, I guess because it's an Emmerich... but I really don't like light pink. Kind of splotchy, but I'm sure the blooms will improve.

Thought these buds on Green Rainbow looked interesting - this was taken around 3PM yesterday. I'm guessing this is why a lot of the GR blooms have been splotchy.

And here's a couple of group blooms of ones I've posted before.

Simplicity in Motion

And Tall Dark Stranger

Thanks for looking!

Wow, Simplicity in Motion is beautiful. I have What's Up Down South but it has not started blooming here yet. I love the large size blooms it produces.Wispy Rays looks great. Nice group.

Wowee! That clump of Simplicity in Motion is breathtaking!! I love it and will have to look for that one now. (Even though I have run out of space for new plants....lol). I also really, really like Up and At 'Em and your pic of All American Chief is outstanding. A beautiful post.

Great photo of Simplicity in Motion, the number of buds I see is as impressive as the blooms. Love the water marked (I think that is what it is called?) ones Wispy Rays, Up & at'em & Black Falcon Ritual. OK, now another question about a perennial-what IS that flower in back of Simplicity in Motion? Kinda looks like a clematis I have, but...

Tall Dark Stranger is my pick in a very nice assortment. It's strange how one year a plant can have very splotchy blooms, but not the next year. Of course, there are those that are just notoriously splotchy. All-American Chief is good pretty much every year, except in a drought situation.

Thanks, all! Nancy, you're right, it is a clematis - Alionushka. It doesn't really cling (sprawls would be the word, I guess), but I have it in an obelisk that keeps it pretty upright, until wind blows over parts of it onto the nearby plants. Edited to add - Nancy, watermarked/watermarks is the correct term. They are my favorite! :)

The Simplicity In Motion clump is a knockout. Triumphal Procession looks fantastic with that companion plant. All the others are pretty too!

Debra

Oh my. How could I choose a favorite out of these? I'd have to line them up and start subtracting slowly; they are all so fabulous! Simplicity in Motion is the most elegant, but for color - oh, oh - Up and At Em, Black Falcon Ritual, All American Chief, Tall Dark Stranger! Wow.

Outstanding post--they all look wonderful to me. Triumphal Procession is a knockout with the stachys in the background, always loved Wispy Rays, and the All American Chief pic is great. Simplicity In Motion clump fabulous, and Tall Dark Stranger is a winner.

Simplicity in Motion is Sharon Fitzpatrick's best, I think. Great as a clump. She was a charter member of our club, Metro Columbus Daylily Society.

I'm a Simplicty in Motion fan too. That nice clump shot makes it even more lovely. All American Chief is really nice, that goes for Tall Dark Stranger too. I have had some blooms partially open in the afternoon, usually that means the bloom isn't going to be it's best.

Being a southerner, I have to say I like What's Up Down South!! Glad you posted it-have been wondering what a garden pic looks like. I like Cloud of Witnesses. Going through a pink stage now!! All American Chief always looks good. Great groups of photos!

Kate

Beautiful clump and combo shots! The All American Chief combo and Simplicity in Motion clump are my favorites. Wispy Rays, Black Falcon Ritual, Remembered Kisses, and What's Up Down South also catch my eye.

I love Tall Dark Stranger and Green Mystique . I just added Wispy Rays this year but I bought it because the picture showed it as a red daylily . Yours looks purple . I hope mine grow red LOL!

Thank you for responding about your perennials-on the other thread too. I always like to see what people plant with their daylilies.

Thanks everyone! Signet, Wispy Rays is red... pictures taken in the morning in the shade have a blue tinge. Here is a pic of Wispy Rays from yesterday in the afternoon... Love it!

Ah ! Thanks Laura for posting this pic! That is more like the idea I thought the plant would look like not that it looked horrible in the purplish tone but it was just so unexpected from any picture I had seen .
