Some other blooms

Your daylilies are doing a lot better opening than mine. I love Blue Throated Hummingbird's pattern! Fern Stone is looking good, and I love the color on the Fern Stone baby. What a gorgeous monster clematis that is!, and the orange Asiatic lilies make a pretty group!

Debra

Several nice ones today, nancy. I especially like Memory of Morning. t is good to see more blooms and I am glad Fernstone is finally behaving for you.

Nancy: Blue Throated Hummingbird is quite stunning. Is it new inn your garden? How is the bud count? Nice group of pics and it looks like your getting more openings. Hope to see more of your posts.

Julia

At last! Your season begins in earnest! i like the garden color-so pretty! I really like the color on Fernstone’s baby!

Im enjoying your babies today, always fun to see what you guys create. is that clematis Betty Corning? i have one and its a monster, a long bloom time too.

Sherry

I like Fern Stone's baby. Beautiful clematis, both of them, and I love the other blooms too.

Thank you Debra and Julia, Blue Throated Hummer is brand new, only planted early May. Hard to tell about bud count, only 8 buds on this scape. I have high hopes for it though. Got it as single fan and already has formed new fan.

Kay, Memory of Morning had a rough start in life, but I am very pleased with how it is doing right now. Last spring I had a single fan, this spring it is 3 fans, 4 scapes. One of those iffy hybridizers that I usually avoid, but it seems to be shaping up, keep your fingers crossed for me it keeps up.

Kate and Laura, I may like Fern stone's baby better than Fern Stone. Fern is doing better but not many buds. Usually it does rebloom, so that may save it. and the fact that it is so early. At least usually it is, LOL.

Sherry, I am not sure, I think that is one of 3 I rescued from the clearance plant rack that had no tag. This is in its 3rd year I think, and if I remember, it does bloom longer than my others.I don't collect clematis like I do daylilies, so does not bother me if I don't know names of them. When they are $1 or $2 on clearance racks and make a show like this I am pleased! I do want a double white variety, not sure why, but they look so pretty in pictures. Never have any locally, one of these days I guess I will go on line and find one.

Dropped my phone in my garden cart, with water, no longer have a phone. Since that is how I access this site, until I get a new phone, hopefuly in a few days, I probably ;will not be back on this site. I hate being without a phone!

Everything is looking so good. If your water was clear, try putting your phone rice and it may absorb the water...

I especially like Memory of Morning. Your Fernstone's baby looks good and that is a pretty color

Blue Throated Hummingbird is another pretty one, Nancy.

kay.

Nancy: Sorry about the phone. Did you try the trick of putting your phone in a bowl of uncooked rice to dry it out? Other methods people have posted about was cat litter or uncooked oats.

Julia

Guess what is finally working today! Yes, I immediately opened my phone up and dried off the battery and any water I saw and put it in a bag of rice for 2 days. My son ordered a new phone for me just couple of hours ago. Did not work this morning, but works now. It is almost 4 years old and starting to do a few odd things before the water, and they were running great deal on the new phone so probably good timing.

Nice blooms. Sorry about the phone. Love the purple other flowers as well the Fern Stone baby. You are certainly ahead of me in getting blooms even though we are in the same state. But I think WKY is often warmer that we are.
