Another Long Post Lost

8 years ago

Almost 35 minutes down the drain, don't know if this will post, do I really care by now--doubtful. I don't understand what these people have done to screw up so badly and why they chose this time to do it. I guess I will have to put my pictures on other people's posts who have managed to get their material onto this website. Isn't that called "hijacking" another person's thread?

    I know, some folks get upset at hijacking a thread, although not so bad when sharing pictures. So far the only picture I managed to post was in Kay's thread I think.

    I had to post one picture and then put the rest in a comment. I lost my original post (had 5 or 6 pictures) this morning.

    I haven't been able to do a photo post today either. I've tried twice, but it won't even upload the first photo.

    It seems that if I do a short post with just a few pictures, I am okay, but anything long seems to defeat their system. So I will add some pictures here, see what happens--

    There's A Place--FFE--I have been waiting for this one ever since it was planted last fall, really love it. The description is Lilac/orchid with a slate calligraphic eye zone pattern--who knew? :) Here's another photo, just different angle.

    The color did not fully fill in on the sepals, but that's okay for a first flower, I can wait and hope in time it will be okay.


    This is our NOID that I thought might be Frankly Scarlet, but it isn't. I also thought maybe Dewey Roquemore, but our flower is too small for Dewey. It is an excellent plant, great substance and no rust that I have ever seen.

    "Red Rover" --- our name for this one


    I don't have a lot of new ones at this time, so sending along some multiples:

    Small World Snow Owl--ten beautiful large flowers. Debra and I are fans of this daylily.

    Peacock Uprising--four pretty ones and the scapes held them up on a windy day.

    Springfield Clan--always an eye-opener!

    R&R Amethyst Crown--lucky shot with the sun backlighting the flowers. Lori, I think you like this one.

    Get'R Done--these are huge, each one must be nine inches or more.

    Capacity For Wonder--lovely trio of blooms.

    Lillian's Thin Ice-I may have posted this before, can't remember, but I think you will forgive me, for it shows off the daylily so well.

    I have given up on trying to post for a few days. My time is limited and sitting staring at blinking buttons does not fit it my schedule. Your photos are striking, especially the clumps! And Lillian's Thin Ice does stand out but so does Get'R Done and the others. I appreciate those of you who persevere!

    I lost mine twice today...I may do what I did earlier and tag a photo on somones post, but I am not sitting down and composing any more long ones until this is fixed...it makes me too irritated and does no good.

    Avedon, I love Git 'R Done! All beautiful, but I really like that one, and yellows don't usually appeal so much to me, but I like it really well. And Tere's a Place is also a real beauty.

    There's A Place is gorgeous. I got that one this spring, but I don't know if it will scape this season. Yours gives me something to look forward too. That photo of Lillian's Thin Ice is fabulous, and you haven't posted it here before. Small World Snow Owl does so well for you. Mine is finally going to bloom this year, but only on two fans. It's not as happy here as it is with you.

    They used to list the forums alphabetically, now they are all over the place and it takes too much time to find all the ones I want to check, it makes no sense at all.

    I adore that clump of Small World Snow Owl. It is absolute perfection. I know I have seen it before but it looks especially pretty today. And of course, Lillian's Thin Ice is ravishing as always (this daylily never takes a bad picture apparently!). I just added Get 'R Done this spring but not sure with my short season if it will bloom. I am looking forward to those bodacious blooms. And There's A Place is lovely. My Capacity for Wonder blooms here in the mid-late season. I always think that that one is even prettier in person. Glad that you didn't give up on trying to post!

    Beautiful clump shots! Hard to choose a favorite. R & R Amethyst Crown looks great. Small World Snow Owl and Capacity For Wonder are my other top picks. Thanks so much for posting! I always enjoy your photos.
