A Few Blooms for August

6 years ago

last modified: 6 years ago

There are a few daylilies still blooming in the August garden.

Last Chance for Romance is a bit splotchy after the rain and has a few bug bites. This one really shines in the month of August, and is usually the latest of my lates.

All of My Love to You with its last bloom - I can't believe it bloomed for so long this season. It's had a very good year.

Smug and August Fire

Final Touch is blooming on very short scapes this time, an it's surrounded by grass. It was far too hot an humid to mow this past week, and now it's raining, still muggy, and the grass is too wet mow until tomorrow.

Zuzu's Treasure has one rebloom scape going.

Dearest Valentine is still reblooming.

Last bloom on Mystic Maize

Dancing Flamingo x Dearest Valentine has started another rebloom scape.

August Frost x Winter's Angel is continuing to bud build. It has 46 buds now!

Rouen Cathedral still has a few buds to go.

I like Smug every time you post it and August Fire is so striking! Tell me about this seedling, August Frost x Winter's Ange. How tall is it? It is really lovely and that is a lot of buds. As always your photos of your lovely plants are a pleasure to see.

Your August Frost seedling is still showing off, I see! So great to see reblooming with your newly registered daylilies.

Smug looks so good. Am I remembering correctly that in a previous post you indicated Smug is in a pot? If so, it is blooming nicely in that environment!

I know you are pleased with seedling reblooming traits! August Frost seedling is such a pretty bloom.

Kay - Seedling August Frost x Winter's Angel started out with a 34-inch scape this year, but with all the bud building it's 38 inches now. The bloom is a 7-incher. At this point I have four fans.

Perfect last bloom on All of My Love to You. I also love Rouen Cathedral. My Final Touch is all over the place this year, some scapes are super tall, some in the foliage. Beautiful seedling and intros, so impressed with August Frost seedling, beautiful and bud builder, that's a really nice pic of it!

Kate - Yes, Smug and August Fire are growing in the same pot. August Fire usually gets shaded out by the more vigorous Sumg plant.

I always like Smug too, really eye catching! All of my Love has really bloomed great for you. Mine finished at least 2 weeks ago, but then I had to move it this spring. It did really well compared to some others I had to move. That August Frost seedling has amazing bud count!

Last Chance for Romance is so pretty and it looks like it will keep going for a while! I find that in a way I enjoy my lates and very earlies more because there is little competition and they can command all my attention.

August Frost x Winter's Angel is amazing with all those buds! Looks like a nice white too.

Nancy and Brad - The August Frost seedling is pretty amazing. Maybe it's name will have Amazing in it.
