Daylily Rebloom 8/21/06 Philadelphia

This is Big Time Happy, same yellow as Happy Returns with a nice green throat, but lots bigger- I can't imagine why more people don't grow it.

This is Apricot Sparkles, also by Darryl Apps, the size of Happy Returns but colored darker with more diamond dusting per square inch than anything west of South Africa. You can wear this one on your ring finger.
This is Little Wine Cup, 6 blooms on one clump today. It's an oldie (1969)but a goodie. Blooms are about 2".
This is today's crop of Tuscawilla Tigress blooms.
Today we got in quantity what we lack in variety, but only one Elfin Stella bloom- my smallest at 1.5 inches. Others blooming today are Moonlit Masquerade (see 8/16, 8/20), Comanche Maiden, Happy Returns, Children of Malawi, and Point of View (see 8/16 blog).
