This is the most beautiful purple I have ever had. It's a deeper purple than the photo!

    You and I are managing to get a few pictures despite the frequent rain. I love the velvety look of Purple Pashmina and the bitone look of Something Superb X Grandma's Smile!

    Debra, perserverance my girl. I wouldn't give up. PP is really a lot darker than the photo and the fine white edge just sets off the purple...Ellie

    I love the look of Pashmina and Time Drifter. They are all pretty but those are my favorites. Sarah

    I think your blooms look pretty amazing with all those rain drops on them. The colors seems very vivid. My favorites are Purple Pashima and Time Drifter......Maryl

    Purple Pashmina looks interesting. Most Mayrotts, though, do not do well here.

    Rain makes it hard, doesn't it? My blooms acted like cups to catch the water yesterday morning (to add to my other fun). I like both of your last two seedlings. Time Drifter catches my eye too. Pretty even when wet, Ellie.

    Lovely pics Ellie. I like Time Drifter with the soft pink color. California Girl looks good with those raindrops.

    We took have been getting more than our fair share of rain here. Looks like we will be getting a very wet season this year.

    Sarah, PP is just a gorgeous daylily. I have a fresh bloom today I will post. Time Drifter is a sound one. Never fails me.

    Jean, you and Sarah seem to be on the same page!

    Maryl, You and the above two ladies must be reading each others minds..LOL!!!

    Mantis, Most of the Maryott's have to spend a lot of time getting established here. They usually sulk for 2 or 3 years.

    Linda, todays bloom is really pretty..

    Chris, I know you like purples. I like them a lot but pink is still the favorite.

    deangreen, it's really something with several blooms.. Soon maybe.

    Kay, if I remember correctly, you really liked that last seedling, last year. I had several bloom from that pod and they were very similar.

    Julia, I love the rain in the summer. The flowers need it as do we. Well water, you know. CG is in a kind of protected area so missed the buckets of rain that fell.

    Thank you all.. more to come. Ellie
