You guys are hilarious!! You are cracking me up here!

I think there is something seriously wrong with me....I have been staying up until 3:00 AM studying daylillies! Than I come here and find a whole bunch of people just like me!

I love it!

Yep, I'm in big trouble....

I have something like 200 feet by 3.5 feet of raised beds that have not had anything grown in them for about 4 years. Can you imagine??

So they are gonna need some soil, compost, pine bark, chicken litter, alfalfa, whatever you all recommend. I don't have near the money for this...but the beds are just sitting there empty.

I have my few little lillies in pots...But I am envisioning all this room for daylillies and how pretty it could be around here! We have only done veggie gardening and dianthus. Now I have my "calling". Jeez...this is crazy...we don't even own this place...we rent a townhouse but it is surrounded with the raised beds my husband built with timbers leftover from some building projects here on the property and the owner didn't object to us using them to make raised beds... um yeah...if I keep buying daylillies...we will have to stay here forever whether we own it or not! I love this place anyway.

I know how to mark their names...I have a beautiful peach thread to choose from.
Oh my god...

Hey remember what I said about coveting only two daylillies? Yeah well now I have lists and I am making a second list of who I would like to see crossed with who! Even though I don't know how to do it yet! Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing

I was lost in threads here last night and saw someone named "Hementia"!!
That is hilarious!! And it totally describes me!

I can't let hubby see the prices....sssshhh don't tell him people can pay $100 for one flower fan!
This all has to be a secret.....
We are just gonna try and trust that a few fans here and there will not be noticed by him! Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing

You guys are terrible for me! But I love it!!!

Now who's gonna give me the chicken litter recipe for my daylillies, or is it just sand and pine bark?? Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing

I have no clue what I am doing Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing
But next year I am posting photo's for you guys!!. He likes to take pictures of my flowers!!

I tease him that we don't have a penny to our name, but I have the Hanging Gardens of Babylon because he built them for me....and I'm so happy now that I know what I can grow here! The chive and leek beds weren't nearly as pretty as the daylilies will be! Can't wait! Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing
