I confess that I copied the on-line menu descriptions with minor alterations, but they were as tasty as they sound. Hilarious!

I have fun posting, so I am glad that you enjoy them.

I was glad that I rescued the poor Dunloe daylilies as that part of the road is completely overgrown now and does not ever get any sun. Any I missed will never bloom now. There are two other ones that I have from the same spot that have not yet bloomed this year.

Here are the blooms from last year for Dunloe Wild White

And Dunloe Wild Unknown (called that because it was not in bloom when I dug it up and I had to wait two years until it did, well worth the wait in my opinion.)

Wish I knew if they were registered also. Sigh, pretty NOIDS.

Here are the poor things before I rescued them in 2008. Sorry for the poor quality of the photos. They were taken with my phone, the only digital camera I had back then.

This will give you an idea of what the location looked like. I put the white marker there so that I could find it once it had finished blooming.
