Cool Moon Rising finally showed me worthy blooms this year.

August Frost started this week and I love the green throat. Also it's quite tall.

Outrageous living up to its name.

Ming Porcelain is one I grew to appreciate and love. It did well this year.

Buttered Popcorn has multiplied a lot. This is just part of the clump.

Dabo Girl is one of my favorites and it's just about done. Always puts out 3-5 blooms at a time not to overwhelm the senses.

Best In Class shined this year and has a rebloom scape, in top left, coming up full of buds.

Alabama Jubilee, look at the pink in it... So cool.

Emporers Choice is impressive this year.

Arcadia Plantation is a smaller flower about 3-4 inches but with perfect form and plant habit. I love it.

Dragon King has done very well this year. It never looks as good in pictures as it does in person though.

Thanks for posting a photo of Dragon King. I agree that DK has to be seen in person to fully appreciate its velvety lushness and glowing triangular throat. Another plus: the substantial flowers hold up to a light rain (but not a heavy downpour).

All of these pictures are lovely, but I particularly like your happy mix of Dabo Girl, liatris spicata, and daisies.

Lovely photos today. I especially like BEst in Class and Dragon King, but Cool Moon Rising was quite lovely, in fact every shot was beautiful.

Dabo Girl is a soft, enticing shade. Cool Moon Rising also looks very good. Afraid I've had too many negative experiences with Best in Class to share your enthusiasm.

Lots of pretty flowers, Dragon King looks so nice I can't imagine it looking even better. I really like the color of Cool Moon rising too.

Cool Moon Rising has terrific color! Buttered Popcorn makes a bright clump next to your fence, and Best In Class is a standout. The combo of Dabo Girl, the daisies and liatris is excellent! Thanks for sharing your photos!

Nice selection of daylilies today -- I especially like Dabo Girl and Buttered Popcorn.

Am I mistaken, or don't you also grow Goody Goody Gumdrops? (I hope I have the right name.)
