So sorry for my absence, daylily friends! NO....I have not and would never leave this group! It's my favorite hangout and I promise I am taking tons of photos every day but I just haven't had time to organize and post them yet. It has just been absolutely crazy hectic the past couple weeks! I do come here briefly to check on you all but then it's 'gram duty' all day since the grandkids are on summer vacation. After they get breakfast I run out and start taking photos of everything before I start pollinating, all the while running back and forth to check on kids and get what they need. Yes, I have caught the hybridizing 'bug' so I am like a mad scientist putting pollen on everything and recording and tagging. And the past 2 weeks it's been peak, so hundreds of things are open and begging to be photographed and pollinated. Plus, we went to the coast of Maine for a weekend and then twice I went to Harmon Hill daylily farm to visit my buddy Carl and feast my senses with even more daylilies. I am going to respond to those of you who messaged me, I promise! And I WILL be posting hundreds of pictures as soon as possible. I have so many!!! Thanks Julia, and everyone, for checking on my whereabouts.
