PINEWOOD GREEN FLASH Kroth 2018 5/1/19

Two blooms today, the first this year on registered cultivars:

BUDDY'S BETSY


CURIOUS CUTIE - A little one

Don't mind the Daylily's growing in my weed beds.
This bloom from yesterday, was the first this season for,

Prairie Wildfire


Shared these last month, so apologies for the repeats.

Apache Beacon


Sacred Drummer


And shame on me that I didn't cut the scape off this one, and allow the energy to be spent on recovery. But look at it.

Texas Carnival Dance

This second bloom shows a little more pattern.

CITY OF ECHOES

Betty, City of Echoes is gorgeous! Who did you cross it with?

Here is Carolyn Mersiovsky with its FFE:



For a first flower, it looks very nice.

All of these are such nice beauties to get the season
going. I'm enjoying the photos. Thanks for sharing.
Just iris in bloom here which I love also. Daylilies will be next.

Mary, I put CURIOUS CUTIE pollen on it.

Nice blooms everyone.
Some funky first blooms yesterday on these two

Seminole Wind



Finally, with good lighting, the photo shows the true color of,

June Williams Memorial


And last but not least IMHO, this beauty.

NOID


Edit to change misnamed Laughing Feather to Apache Beacon.

Beautiful! Love those patterns, Fred!
Wonderful blooms, Stan -- and I also love that NOID! Do you know whether it's a dip or tet?

Betty, it's a dip. I crossed it with a seedling from Fred that has Alabama Stud In it.

I don't see funky blooms, Fred, but I do see some gorgeous
patterns.

Stan, love those reds, especially Apache Beacon, and
also the very dark June Williams Memorial.

Beautiful everyone. Mr. Manning thats some pretty patterns on them there daylilies.

Ooh -- I like it!

I have been gone a few days, had to take the wife to the Doc and then stop back on the way home and attend my granddaughter's college graduation, stayed a few days at my daughters lake house and now am back home.
I was not able to get photos till late, it rained earlier in the day, etc. etc., yes I am making excuses but the plants deserve more credit than these photos will show.
Some of these are first blooms of the season, some are repeats and some are just to show how the blooms are picking up now with the warmer weather and some rain finally.
