    Wow! On Gimmee...what a clump! How old is that plant? Lots of good ones here-Rose Masterpiece shows great color, Sweet Prairie Wind looking good, Graphic Art, and Philistine Champion also stand out. Down Home is another insect victim so two of my favorite earlies I did not see. A really nice collection of something for everyone here.

    Wow! I did not recognize your bloom as Stenciled Infusion. It has much more of a broken pattern than mine and doesn't have an edge. Mines not ruffly. It really looks more like with only very minor splotching. I always like your photos of Safe Island.

    That's an amazing clump of Gimme, and Sweet Prairie Wind looks good, with only very minor splotching. I always like your photos of Safe Island.

    Rose Masterpiece is showing off today, such a scrumptious color. Navajo Pony really caught my eye today, reminds me of Kay’s Exotic Starfish.

    Navajo Pony looks outstanding. I am glad that I have it. I had to get it, because my oldest daughter said that she really liked it. It was the most photographed daylily last year.

    The Gimmee clump is actually a collection of divisions. Aha, the picture was of Screen Pattern; Stencilled Infusion is next door, so I got the scape mixed up.

    The first one that caught my eye was Bill Norris. A real beacon of sunshine.....I've always liked Philistine Champion, but it's not that colorfast so I've passed. Looks good in your climate.........Lovely shot of Rose Masterpiece. One of my first daylilies. It got caught in the cool rainy weather this year and just now finished blooming. Usually it's bloomed out by the end of May not June......Rhapsody in Black looks like it's been around a nuclear power plant. It's just radiant.........This post of yours is just chock full of beauties.....Maryl

    I always enjoy the backdrop in many of your photos of that cool blue water pool and fountains; and the radiant gleam of Bill Norris in front of it makes for a dazzling photo. I love the photo of Navajo Pony since mine came late last year and didn't bloom. I am very much anticipating it looking so grand. Rose Masterpiece is aptly named and Gimmee is giving & giving this year. I got Stealth Bomber from Debra in a trade this year so I enjoyed seeing yours. And I really like Graphic Art! That one is very eyecatching. As always, a beautiful bounty and so enjoyable.

    Great clump of Gimmee; it really caught my eye. Rose Masterpiece is looking good as is stealth Bomber.

    Gimmee is really a winner for you! Wonderful clumps! Bill Norris is bright and cheerful, a nice one. Rose Masterpiece is just that, and so many of them look lovely, but Navajo Pony really catches my eye. Very nice post with so many lovlies, Mantis.

    Rhapsody in Black is an older one that can indeed be radiant. Like many darks, doesn't like hot afternoon sun. Navajo Pony is smaller than I expected. The backdrop, Celeste, is at the estate where I manage the daylily garden. It is indeed a relaxing and opulent setting.

    Gimme and Navajo Pony are the ones for me. And I agree with others - what a lovely setting.

    Gimme just keeps putting out the blooms, I may have yo put that on my wish list. I have eyed philistine Champion many times, but talk myself out of it because I have several rather similar. I like Stealth Bomber and Safe Island too. I love my Navajo Pony, but are scapes a bit weak on it? Perhaps mine needs more sun?

    Screen Pattern has a pretty bloom. Looking forward to seeing Stenciled Infusion blooming next door.
