OK then, New Red?

 

It is awesome from the back. So glad you sent me out there to look at that!

WalMart daylily

Bought it at WalMart and the label said 'red daylily'.

WalMart Red?

 

This was taken in natural light. Overcast natural light but at least no flash. I will get one in full sunlight though. There are a lot of buds, it is going to bloom for awhile yet, I hope.

Red Daylily

 

Look what showed up today! This is your WalMart red right?

Radiation Biohazard

It's not a very pretty name for a daylily but it sure is a pretty daylily. The centre is a little more lime than shows here. We bought it in bud so the blooms are a little ragged this year. It's big too - like 8" across.

Taco Twister Take Two

Until this gets to be a big clump, I have to be pretty happy with two blooms in one day.

Jurassic Spider

We bought this one last year at Harbour Breeze Daylilies but after it was done blooming - $25 based on a photo. We're not disappointed at all this year. It's gorgeous - a spider-type bloom 10" across.

Not the one we bought

This is supposed to be 'Siloam David Kirchhoff' but it's not. It's a big flower for a daylily - quite impressive - but clashes with the pink phlox beside it so one of them will move before next year.
Note July 21/12: Went to Harbour Breeze Daylilies and the guy gave us the David Kirchhoff we didn't get last year. The one above is 'Siloam Double Classic' - a more expensive daylily as it turns out..

New creamy daylily

This one is new for us this year. We raided Ally's daylilies last year, but after they'd already bloomed. Growing daylilies in the fence garden is a bit of an experiment for us this year.

The President

No, those are not tiny daylilies - the clematis flowers are huge. After 5 years I'm finally getting a beautiful show from The President this year. The blooms open dark fushia and quickly fade to this medium purple.

You've Got Mail

The seeds are dry and cleaned. On Monday when the post office is open, I am going to dig up the 'Endless Summer' bits along with the Combine Garden Daylily and the dark Creeping Jenny. These seeds and the ones on your seed wish list will join all that in the box. Anything else you can't live without next Spring that I could throw in?

Surprise !

After all the conversation yesterday, look what I happened upon in the Combine Garden on walkabout with the camera today. Side view here and there are lots of buds.

Recognize these?

Alison's Red, blooming today.
