    Great garden shots, but my favorite are all those RFK seedlings. She must be a great mama!

    Osterized and Worth it All are gorgeous and I always love garden pics. Your gardens are gorgeous! Magic of Oz is lovely!

    Is it a stink bug?

    It does look like those stinky bugs.
    Love the garden shots. Daylilies look very nice. I love the color of Worth It All. And my favorite is Clown Parade. Everybody posts such good pics of it. I'd really like to add it too :)
    And my favorite seedling is the last one of LBB x RFK.

    WORTH IT ALL is not a daylily for everyone. It can have bad blooms as well as good ones. It only had 2 openings so far and one of which I photographed.The other one was very splotchy. Substance is very heavy. Lots of buds to open yet.

    I will look up stinky bug. No squash here.

    CLOWN PARADE does great here but hasn't increased as fast as others.

    Many of my lilies are leaning and are overcrowded. I need to find out when to dig them up and replant.

    RFK does produce great kids but I've only gotten it as a pollen parent. I wonder what it would do as the pod parent.

    I've been delighted with Magic of Oz too. Clown Parade is not so bright here. Your seedlings are wonderful. Which ones do you think you will hybridize with this year? "LBB" stands for?

    Well the dry weather lasted a couple of hours but raining here again now so no more garden work.

    mantis:LBB is Lavender Blue Baby. no hybridizing this year for me. No room and I need to dig out those I don't see any potential for. Hard decisions. I do plan to keep all the RFK kids and move them so they have more room. Poor things are starving for space and possibly one or two other crosses that have been here for at least 3 years.

    First though I have to dig out all the ones I want to remove including the double plantings and then tackle the overgrown beasts of daylilies.

    Those RFK seedlings are real beauties. I love seeing your garden. The perennial bed is so pretty and well kept. I really like the way you planted the bed with the daylilies and lilies. That tall red lily is an eye-catcher. What is the yellow double to the right of the red lily. I usually dislike doubles, but that one appeals to me. Magic of Oz looks relly good, and I really like Souls on Fire. I remember that I really liked Ribit Ribit last year. Such a pretty bloom. That's a gorgeous shot of Clown Parade, and Worth it All looks great. My pick of the whole thing is the second of your RFK seedlings. I really like that color.

    Your gardens look lovely, so many lilies blooming or about to bloom. The RFK seedlings look fantastic, and Worth It All is my favorite of the registered CVs.

    Thanks all.
