They struggled. Two died. And Four continued to struggle. Last year a few greens just sat there and no blooms appeared.
A few weeks ago, they finally started to take off! Sending up their sun-scopes to reach as high as possible for the sun. The stems have been waving in the wind for a couple weeks and then the little buds appeared. Last week they plumped up. And then... success! the first blooms!
Always happy to see day lilies. I have been hybridizing them now since 2008 and this years are exceptional. It is a hobby that has become an obsession! Here on the shores of Lake Michigan they do well. I often try showing the lake in the many photos I post, it is such a part of the gardens. Enjoyed my visit. Jack
