2012 First Daylilies

First daylilies this year were the Stellas, like these I snapped at the Chatham University campus in Pittsburgh.

 Next were Allentown, PA hybridized Earlybird Sunshine

 and Earlybird Orangeade (both by Megan Skinner).

 Next was Stella's Sparky, 99Chrichton 22ERe3.75 Sev Dip.

 Not a daylily, but has anybody else had a glad bloom in May?

This is a "perennial" gladiola, which does not have to be dug up even here in Pittsburgh (a cold Z6, almost 5).
