Great perspective, Wes. And I'm really thankful for my spring and fall daylily blooms because when yours are going strong this summer my plants will practically be dormant in our 100+ degree dry heat. So please do post pictures of your blooms this summer so we can enjoy them too.

Here are some from today:

LITTLE SURFER GIRL - Our fluctuating temps really brought out the pinched petals in this one today.


EMERALD PRISM


CROWNING LIGHT - In morning shade, and then later at almost dark taken with the flash


BLUE ALERT


PIKES PEAK


TET. DEVIL'S FOOTPRINT


TIDES ROLL IN - This bloom looks different than the ones in the database, but I purchased it directly from the Petits and assume the difference is caused by our fluctuating temps that are also affecting other blooms -- plus this bloom took almost all day to completely open. I do love this look too -- especially in the eye pattern.
