    Well, I tried twice and wasted a bunch of time, so I give up. Hope you enjoyed the few pictures I was able to post!

    Here's one that I happen to have on my computer from today...

    Westbourne Blackberry Cobbler


    Things are at the tail end here, lots of last blooms. Some rebloom and late scapes, so will have some flowers for a while yet. I have about 15-20 pictures of other cultivars from today, plus some seedlings. Maybe I'll try doing another short post tomorrow, if I have enough and patience :)

    By the way, I have a sale ad in the classifieds on garden.org right now, a couple of other members have ads out there right now too. Check it out if you're interested. Thanks!

    Nice ones, Laura! Mister Monopoly is an in-your-face lily, isn’t it? Hard to miss that one and Miss Demeanor. I like Late To the Party. Heavenly United We Stand looks like it had a good bloom year. And of course the purples are nice! Is that the color of HOH in your garden? Mine is much more lavender/purple

    Wonderful pictures. Like Debra, I too can't pick a favorite.

    I see you are growing Soli Deo Gloria. Photos of this daylily caught my eye this season, so pretty.

    The Davi ones caught my eye of course. How do they do for you? Soli deo Gloria is so pretty. Mine is on a 3rd scape now. Seems like the 1st bloom on a scape is splotchy, then the others have been nice. Looking forward to seeing it next year when it has settled in better.

    Thanks! Yes, Mister Monopoly really is in your face with the color and the size too. I really like it, I got it two years ago and it is shining this year. Miss Demeanor, I think I mentioned in the past in a comment somewhere, took a while to get established here, got at the same time as Mister M. It seems to be doing better this year, not as robust as others. Jolly Uncle Jelly is the same way here, not that robust but seems to be settling in finally. Nancy, I think those are the only two that haven't done great from the get-go for me.


    Kate, Heartbeat Of Heaven has different colors here depending on temps and precip, I think. It's been a lot lighter at times, but was darker yesterday and today.


    Sherry, I really love Soli Deo Gloria... so much that I bought it twice (in 2015 and 2016), as it was not increasing since I kept setting pods on it. I eased up on that last year and this year. The first blooms are splotchy for me, but after that, WOW. I have some nice taller seedlings that I like that I made with it... also some that are short also (SDG is a bit short).


    Debra, my sale from the classifieds is going okay, only three sales so far. I have a lot more sales from my private sale that I have for some of my previous customers (some of you know who you are! :) ), although fewer orders than in the spring. I'm going to put up another ad in the classifieds probably early next week that will be a subset of the private sale, things that are easy for me to dig or that I'm hoping to downsize. I have 10 pots with plants to get in the ground next month and some more coming too - oops!


    Thanks again for looking and commenting!

    Thanks for your series of posts, Laura, and also for your comments on performance. Heartbeat of Heaven is a pinkish lavender here. I'm afraid the sun takes a toll, which it probably doesn't farther north. I just want to note here the performance of two Emmerichs that I have mentioned somewhat favorably in the past. Desire of Nations is not a strong plant, as many others have noted. Others have also noted the problems of Soli Deo Gloria, not only in increase, but in bloom quality and production. Both were dismal here this year, probably partly because of late freezes.
