What's Still Blooming This Week

6 years ago

Here are some photos from the last three days. There are spots of color here and there.


August Fire ffo - Not many buds, but it's a welcome face this time of year.



Blue Jay Tapestry with yet another rebloom scape



Soli Deo Gloria - Now that I've adjusted to the edges NOT being white, I'm liking this one better and better with each bloom. The longer it's in the sun, the more ruffly the petals become and then the sepals recurve, which I like.



Seedling Karelia x Palace Garden Beauty is reblooming for the first time in its nine years here.



Pink Lemonade Party is still reblooming



Mystic Maize



From This Moment On and Strawberry Alarm Clock



Last two blooms on The Blues Project


Seedling August Frost x Winter's Angel still has two or three more buds.


Zuzu's Treasure x Dearest Valentine will conclude its rebloom later this week.

    You do still have quite a few blooming. Mine are just sparse rebloomers now! The Karelia seedling still is a favorite. Pink Lemonade Party is so pretty with that clear color. The Zuzu’s Treasure seedling has performed well, hasn’t it?

    That Karelia seedling is so nice, such an edge! You’ve got to be so happy you got rebloom on Zuzu’s seedling. I’m a fan of the the August Frost seedling.

    Kate and Sherry - The Zuzu'a Treasure seedling has rebloomed on all of its four fans, so I'm pretty happy with it. Karelia x Palace Garden Beauty is oretty, but it's a problem chlid that only opens well when night temps are above 73 degrees. It won't get registered or given away because of that. Thank goodness its offspring don't share that problem. I'm very happy with the three seedlings I've gotten from it, and I need to plant some more of its seeds next year. The August Frost seedling, with its 43 buds, is one of my top favorites.

    What a lot of beauties still blooming. My favorites are Soli Deo Gloria and Seedling Karelia x Palace Garden Beauty. I don't know, but I am sure some of us never have to worry about temps lower than 73 except at the very beginning of the season, and even them, it isn't often. It wouldn't be the only one that didn't open well either.

    Kay - I'm glad you like Karelia x PGB. When it first bloomed and in subsequent years I thought it might get registered. But it never got more 13 buds and had the opening problem even when I moved it to an area where it got early morning sun. The great thing is that its babies open better and have more buds. Here are the babies:

    (Karelia x PGB) x This Longing #1 - 16 buds


    #2 - 14 buds


    #3 - 30 buds

    My favorite of these is Zuzu's Treasure x Dearest Valentine. Very pretty design, great color. (Karelia x PGB) x This Longing #1 and #2 are both very interesting. What great eyes.

    August Fire is so pretty, I bet it looks even prettier in a clump. I don't have a single daylily with August in the name (it's my BD month )) Your SDG looks so fancy! Love that pink color on Pink Lemonade Party - nice name )) August Frost seedling is so beautiful, but your this seedling - (Karelia x PGB) x This Longing #1 - is gorgeous! I love that thick border.

    I like the photo of From This Moment On and Strawberry Alarm Clock. Lovely contrast of the two daylilies. Your seedlings are gorgeous.

    Brad - Thanks for your comments on the seedlings. I know you have a soft spot for the lavenders.

    Nat - Happy Birthday to you in August! August Fire would be great in a clump. I only wish I had one. It's been in a pot for three years, and doesn't like it there. Two years ago it went from two fans to one. Now it's two, but it only put a scape up on one of the fans. It's in a pot with Smug which has multiplied to five fans now. (Karelia X PGB) x This Longing #1 does have a great edge. I really like the patterned eye too. I think the flower is very unique looking,I and will probably register it even if doesn't have the bud count that meets my goal.


    Julia - I took the photo of From This Moment On and Strawberry Alarm Clock together to show all the buds on FTMO., and also to show how late SAC finishes blooming. Thanks for commenting on it!

    Soli deo Gloria really does get better with each bloom, there are such nuances of color to it, just makes me keep looking at it. Zuzu's Treasure seedling is lovely, and how great to get that much rebloom from it. I like the Kariella x Pgb seedling, but the seedling from that are really wonderful!
