2 June 2016 .. 2 June 2017 .. Winsome Lady became either the 1st DayLily to visit Or The 2nd .. All depends on viewpoints .. There are all sorts of criteria that a Day Lily must meet .. Per those souls who take this very seriously .. You know -- the Chapters / the Groups / the people who live and breathe the 'background' .. Hybrids Fulver .. Yes- it gets very confusing .. In my World, if it looks like a Day Lily .. It is a Day Lily .. (though I was told / informed by some group that is very serious) .. The orange Day Lily ( that I've taken bunches of photo of) .. ''They do not meet the standards of a 'true Day Lily' " .. They are also called Ditch Lily .. Personally, I don't care .. But,when I told 'them that', they were not amused .. Oh, well ... that is Life.. Our Garden of Surprises ( if you don't know why I call it that ) .. We moved back to North Carolina after many years living in Florida .. N.C. is home .... Even though the home we bought had manuals of all that had been done (even blueprints) over the years .. Not one thing about the Garden .. So, for the 1st year I photo-documented everything ... weeds and all .. From then on, I have enjoyed 'playing in the dirt' .. And I love to name plants .. oh do I ever ! © All Rights Reserved

In order of blooming - Tawney Lily ( aka Ditch Lily ).. Winsome Lady .. Bonanza .. Kwanso .. Jazz Velvet ..proper name is: Prairie Wildflower ( I think ) looked out this morn and Bonanza [ yellow with maroon ] .. has sublet another section of the Garden of Surprise (s) .. Still waiting for the solid yellow to bloom .. (c) All Rights Reserved
