Fall has arrived in Vermont. We had rain on Saturday and Sunday. It just poured. And cold nights down in the 40's. Burr. Not ready for this. Today and yesterday were sunny but cooler. I still have a few plants that haven't bloomed yet (they better hurry up), and many are either finishing there bloom cycle or starting a rebloom. Here's what 'cold nights' do to the color and size of some of my daylilies.
MERCURY RISING (Still blooming - was double, now only single blooms)
<--July bloom and August bloom -->
RED HOT AND BOOM (This plant has bloomed since the end of June. The August pix is the last bloom)

And finally, I won 'Tides Roll In' (Petit- 2012) from James Hall on the LA back in late June. Yesterday, the plant arrived. Beautiful clump. As a bonus gift plant, James sent me a spider plant by the name of 'Buddy's Booger' (unusual name) a 2014 daylily, being processed for registration now. He sent me this picture of the bloom from his garden.
