| I am new to this forum and I am totally enjoying all the beautiful pictures! Makes me wanna go daylily shopping.
I guess about 8 years ago, I had sort of started in daylilies. Bought some horses and forgot about my daylilies. Now, I am trying to revive the survivors! I have also purchased some seeds the last couple of years from the auction. This is the first year that my seedlings have bloomed. I will post a few pictures of the flowers that have bloomed the last couple of days. Nothing fancy yet... But boy have the lilys changed since I was shopping for them last. Thanks so much for all the beautiful pictures! Sheila Seems like I have a few that I lost tags on... This one is an unknown
Red Volunteer X Shores of Time

Unknown dark red, but it looked more purple in the cloud cover today

| Thanks Brittie and Avedon!! I love the reds and darker colors. I also like the ruffly edges. One of my favorites is Michaels Sword since beginning to look around again! What is the difference between watercolor and eye on a daylily? I am going to post a few more pic's but not sure if we can post in a follow-up message. thanks, Sheila |

| Hi Sheila - Welcome to the forum! I really like your dark red unknown. It does have a velvety look to it. A watermark is where the eyezone is lighter in color than the petal color. Debra |

| Welcome to the forum Sheila. That orange unknown is very vibrant. All the pics are very nice. Yes, you can post additional photos in a follow-up message. Julia |

| Thanks Debra!! It is one of my favorite Reds. Julia, the story on the unknown orange is I had purchased Diamonds and Pearls late one year and the next spring I recvd a very nice letter from the daylily farm apologizing for sending me the wrong daylily. They refunded the purchase of Diamonds and Pearls and said to keep and enjoy the flower I received. Still it is not what they thought. So it is just a beautiful blessing each time it blooms! |

| There's not a bad one in the group. I especially like the unknown orange. Too bad daylilies don't bloom around Halloween because that would be a great color for Charlie Brown's pumpkin patch.......Maryl |
