Daylily blooms June 27
Bringing individual blooms to Daylily Day or just to a friend's house to share? I like this USPS Priority Mail box, 12 x 15 x 3 inches. I X with a sharp knife then poke with my thumb to make a hole big enough to gently nest the neck of the blossom. No water pick is required for most daylilies for several hours of enjoyment. Spiders seem to wilt fastest, within a "few" hours compared to "several" hours for most.
Karen Burgoyne (Betty Harwood 1998) is looking better than most in its first outing today.
Bat Signal put out these 3 blooms
.Marked By Lydia not first day, but what a display!
Finally, Dabo Girl first bloom (Megan Skinner, 1999). What you can't see here is the diamond dusting that really makes this one shine!
