Daylilies open today

5 years ago

Dappled Dynamo has won the race for the first non-species to open in the garden for the year. This little one is a blooming fool. I think it was the last one blooming last fall. It appears to be a bud builder.

Falconer was planted (in a pot) this spring. I hope this one is hardy and fertile.

This seedling is Geometric Wizard X (Curious Cutie X Impressionist Sky). Geometric Wizard's kids all resemble it, but not as nice. I probably won't breed anymore with it. This is the first time for this seedling to bloom.

That's all today.

When Bob came home for lunch, we went for a drive around the garden and I found another one blooming. This is Heavenly Pink Angel, a new one from Jamie Gossard. Jamie has a line of smallish dips. Most are bigger than true small, but are much smaller than the the average dip uf. We have picked up a few of them to use in our tall and small diploid breeding. This one is new (is actually a club plant) and is still in a pot.

The asiatic lilies are beginning to bloom. I don't know the name of this one. The martagon lilies have buds too. I can't wait to see those. It will be the first time for them to bloom.

The gallardia is getting going.

Now I'm done.

I do like Falconer. I almost ordered it this Spring but knew I already had too many coming. I think your seedling has pretty colors and a pretty pattern.

Pretty blooms. I just picked up some gallardia at the nursery yesterday. I loved having it in the old NY garden.

Falconer is pretty. And your gallardia is quite healthy! I love my blanket flower. It blooms through fall in my garden.

Hmmm. I wonder what happened to my post. Falconer is a pretty one. The Heavenly Pink Angel is pretty too. Your Geometic Wizard kid is pretty.
