    Thank you Dick. Like Maryl, Along Came Amanda is striking to me. I can just imagine what afine display Wild and Wonderful makes...what size is that bloom?

    Thanks, Dick. Dental Delight caught my eye. Eager to see more.

    Great pictures and I too like Along came Amanda. That is one bright-eyed daylily!

    Nice blooms! Did you come home with anything new???

    Sherry: we came home with some nice gift plants. I also bought Envious Eyes and Beneventum Plantation at Brown's Ferry Garden for a ridiculous price of $11.00 for both. I bought Breathing In Snowflakes which was making a great show in several gardens. It was the overwhelming winner of the best plant (?) award.

    Here are some more from the convention:

    Kiss You In The Morning

    Rock Around The Clock - I am a sucker for a bright yellow with a red eye.
    Dragon Fly In Flight - I bought it last year but it has not bloomed yet.
    Rose Hill School
    Twisted Whiskers
    Spotswood Box - just a perfect flower
    Conway Red Light

    Candy Colored Curls
    Magic Combination

    Lofty Expectations

    That's about all - it looks like I will be taking pictures in my garden in the next few days. Last summer's plantings are exceeding all expectations in performance. Hate it when that happens :-)

    I did not get a good picture of Breathing In Snowflakes - the star of the show in several gardens. Here is the AHS registration picture. Looked that good everywhere. It was voted the favorite from the garden tours.

    Dick,


    I just received an order from Ed Zahler and I know his garden was on the tour. Was CONWAY SERENDIPITY in bloom? If so, what were your thoughts.

    David: I believe it was in bloom. I remember it as being fairy tall - looks like the registration picture - very pretty. I did not get a picture.

    The dark ones with light edges almost always draw my eye, so I like Dental Delight. Wish I had bee there, must have been A sight to behold

  • 8 years ago

    Thanks for sharing these, Dick! I really love Kiss You in The Morning!

  • 8 years ago

    I like Kiss You in the Morning also. Love the colors. Wild and Wonderful may truly live up to its name, perhaps. Lot s of pretty ones. I love visiting gardens!! (They usually clean their weeds out prior to visitors!!)

    Wild and Wonderful is just as nice in my garden.

    I'd like to see Breathing in Snowflakes in Celeste's magic soil. It is a beautiful lavender color. Ditto with Magic Combination........ The form on Spotswood Box is perfection but the color doesn't send me....... Are there more?......Maryl

    Nice pictures. I bet you had a good time at the convention. I'm not much into unusual forms but Candy Colored Curls catches my fancy. I do like the cascades. Kiss You in the Morning has a lovely eye.
