Not much blooming

8 years ago

Daylilies are winding down. A few still blooming, a few just starting and a few reblooming.


Question; what do you do if you feel like one of your favorites isn't doing well and needs a change of some kind? Or to get more increase.


Westbourne Cream of the Crop.

    A new locaation sometimes helps, but some cultivars just vary from year to year. Here, tender evergreens may go into decline.

    Artic Lace starting to rebloom

    Wonder of it All , sorta reblooming and sorta never stopped blooming

    FFO Nite Air

    Snowy Apparation still blooming. My daughter claims it has a strong sweet fragrance. I have a sensitive sense of smell, but have never found fragrance on any daylily.

    You Glow Girl

    Quiet Reflections, almost lost this one until I moved it. First blooms in a couple of year.

    You may not have much blooming, but what is, is very pretty! I've never seen Wonder of It All with that much petal color. Gorgeous! The color of Glow Girl is wonderfully bright!

    Very nice Ruth. You Glow Girl is my fave of these.

    Wonderful WB Cream Of The Crop,is it a good grower for you? Some daylilies do respond to a move, so all you can do is try and see what happens. Lovely flowers, like the lavender of Quiet Reflections and the pink of You Glow Girl. I wonder if you have ever had the opportunity to sniff a Hudson Valley--it is very fragrant here.

    I also find that my clumps can have an off year, but if it happens that 2nd year, I love it. Wonder of it All looks really good. Love the color on You Glow Girl.

    Nice photo of Wonder Of It All. I see a tooth or two on Quiet Reflections edge and you have several buds yet to open.

    Fragrance is sometimes in the nose of the beholder. H. Altissima is wonderfully fragrant for me. One of the species - a somewhat late bloomer.

    Since I like ruffles Wonder of It All steals the show. Wonderful picture. Quiet Reflections is another nice one. A good group I'd say.........Maryl

    avedon, I have never seen Hudson Valley. I do have a lot that are supposed to be fragrant but I can't smell a thing. I've heard people say the same about roses that I think have an awesome fragrance. I would think it has to do with location except that my daughter claims she can smell a fragrance sometimes.

    Westbourne Cream of the Crop is supposed to very fragrant and smell like honeysuckles. One of the reasons I bought it. Neither my daughter or I can detect any fragrance. It does grow well here but the blooms always looks small to me. I think it's because of the 5" flowers on a tall scrape.

    Lovely blooms! Wonder of it All and Westbourne Cream of the Crop are my top picks.
