Not a great day for daylilies- rain early morning pretty much turned Happy Returns into tissue paper (above), but since it was our first rain over .1 inch in a month, I'm not complaining. Topguns Gold Mine doubled (upper left), but I knocked the blossom off trying to clean up the foliage before shooting.
Today's crop: Topguns Gold Mine, Fox Ears, Children of Malawi, Happy Returns (middle left), Big Time Happy, Little Wine Cup, and Harwood Seedling HS40 (from Cynthia Lord Ruddy).
Richard & Shirley Stout brought two blossoms to the DVDS Summer Sale yesterday: Strawberry Candy and one of it's children, Don Herr's 2002 'Trish Herr'. (It's Ida's Magic x Strawberry Candy). See pic at http://www.donherrdaylilies.com/galleries/all_intros.htm
What's blooming for you? Email me or bring your list to the GSDG Picnic & Member Auction September 10 at Staba's.
Todaylily is the blog of Terry Oates, past President of Garden State Daylily Growers Club in New Jersey. Terry has since moved from Philadelphia to Verona, PA (Pittsburgh) where he's hybridizing stippled (dotted) and striped daylilies because he likes weird stuff.
