As I told you, once they start, the Day Lilies bloom a LOT! As the name suggests, Day Lilies bloom for a day and then wilt, so you need to pick off yesterday's faded blooms to enjoy today's. It makes for a great morning, going out to see what blooms have opened today! Each stem develops a lot of buds, so can go on blooming for quite awhile.
This variety is known as Saugeen Sunrise; we bought it directly from the breeders a short distance from our former home.
Hope you enjoyed these; there will be more ion the weeks to come!
Such gorgeous blooms. I love that second photo!
ReplyDeleteOurs have also exploded, but out whole row is made up of similar yellow-orange blooms. Although there are 3 different types, they are similar. I don't think we planned it very well.
ReplyDeleteSuch a variety of shades, glorious.
ReplyDeleteThey are such courageous plants. They line the highway into town.
ReplyDeleteYou have such a great variety of lilies. You have collected some great ones. I agree the colors are so wonderful.

ReplyDeleteThey are beautiful! I especially like the purple'ish ones. Ours are putting out buds, but not yet blooming. I'm excited to see what colors they will be.
