Day lilies are popping.
.
.
And they’re such a great burst of color…
.
.
I wish they were at least week lilies.
.
.
Here today.
.
.
Gone tomorrow.

Good thing there are a plethora of buds.

Lily for a day
Tag Archives: daylilies
What’s blooming?
.
It’s daylily time.
.
.
When we bought this house there were no gardens to speak of and very little in the way of plantings but there were two bunches of oranges daylilies .
.
.
I can’t honestly say that’s where I would have planted them, but they thrive so who am I to complain?
.
.
Orange seems to be the hardiest and most prolific color in my part of the world.
.
.
And honestly they’re the easiest no fuss, no care flower there is.
.
.
I’ve planted a few others over the years….
.
.
But it really is a shame they’re true to their name. Each bloom only lasts a day.
.
As my garden grows…
Day lilies.
They’re vibrant…
And colorful…
(Is it me… or is that mildly disturbing?)
They’re prolific…
Long lasting…
(Well that explains why my refrigerator died. They wanted it to.)
And easy to care for.
Plant… forget… and enjoy.
The same goes for Hostas, although they prefer some shade.
Everything is in marvelous bloom right now.
Except the sunflowers the chipmunk from Hell planted in my petunias.
They may take a while.
Happy gardening!
A little garden fluff…
(Not to be confused with actually fluffing… because, damn. That’s another blog entirely. )
The silver mounds are mounding nicely….
And the red geraniums you all told me to plant? Made the bulkhead doors look even more red…. so, yeah.
Day lilies are popping up among the peonies.
As well as in the shadow of the giant quince bush.
Not sure how that red fellow got in there.
Are there daylily postmen?
Begonias are begonia-ing.
And the lawn that never stops growing affords ample opportunity for the neighbors to test drive the husband’s new toy.
If only they wanted to take more than a few swipes, we could sit on the porch with an adult beverage and enjoy the summer….
River's world.....
