Congrats on the job but it sure will cut into your gardening time - LOL!

Brooke

Thanks Brooke. Now I will be able to afford more daylilies. I bought a few more: Fortune's Dearest, Edith Sliger, Fairest of Them, and seedlings from Phil Korth and Don Longton.

Edward

Congrats on the job, Edward -- I hope it's something where you get to use those great photography skills.

Chris

Hey Edward, congrats on the job, but don't be a stranger around here. We need your beautiful photos to help us make it till next bloom season!
BTW, I have ES and FOT coming this fall. I am looking forward to seeing them in my garden. I already have FD, and it bloomed pretty well for it's first year.
Jan

Whoa!!!! That one will knock your socks off, Edward!! Just gorgeous. Thanks for sharing it with all of us who are way past "peak" bloom now. :)
Jan

Absolutely gorgeous Edward!! Congrats on your new job, I agree with Jan and Nancy, we need your beautiful pics now that we're coming to the end of the season. My late, late DL's are blooming now...for some reason all my late DL's have bloomed early this year. Please keep pics coming!

Hi Edward,

Any job is a good job until you can find something you like better that pays better. Just don't forget to keep looking for that something better. Congrats on becoming employed!

Janet

Thanks Janet. When I got home from work today I was greeted by the last bloom on Moonlit Masquerade.

Ok, I didn't spend the whole thing but I did just buy a daylily on the Lily Auction: Aunt Nellie (Smith 2005). I have been wanting JT Davis but this kid is possibly nicer. It is bigger ad taller anyway and a whole lot cheeper. Here is the picture from Frank Smith's website.

Let me add my congratulations, too, Edward! On the job and the daylilies, lol!

Enjoy your pictures...how did your Open Garden(s) go? You are brave to do that! Tell us about it! Did you take pictures?

The open garden was a bit of a dud. It was scheduled based on when peak was last year so alot of the daylilies were done. There was still the potential for a great show but the daylilies were uncooperative. All the ones I wanted to show off opened for the day after the open garden.

Edward

Oh Edward, what a bummer!!! I had one weekend when everything was popping at once!! It was spectacular, I had my husband and daughter come out to ooh and aah.

Please post more of your pics...it's always fun to see what you have blooming in your's and your neighbor's (which you confiscated...lol) garden :)

Here are two from today: Elegant Candy and Light of the World.

Wow! I just love Light of the World! Elegrant Candy is gorgeous. I'll have to look for LOTW on the LA. BTW, I love the Coreopsis in your pics, so, I bought three small inexpensive pots today. I have a terrible slug problem and want to see how these make out before I invest too much money. I think I've seen Tickseed in pink...(Coreopsis rosea)
Marilyn

Here are some from today, including the season's last bloom on Siloam Double Cassic. It was a real long bloomer. it was my first to bloom on July 2nd.
