Kwansan daylily, often is known as ditchlily in the South;

As a member has mentioned that the ditchlily posted above could potentially be agressive growers. Here is another pretty daylily that isn't agressive enough, but drought tolerant and spread slowly.

The tropical corner of the garden. Tropicals that need overwinter indoor.

Blue blossoms that of Blue Sky vine (Thunbergia grandiflora). This is semi-tropical. It will survive our winter here but some of the harshest of winter. Last couple of years, winters were hard on us. So I re-planted a couple of these vines this spring.

Those are lovely I especially like 'Betty boop' rose. The columbines are very attractive. I've not seen a Flax before down South. Thanks kwanjin.

http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=8611426 See this same angel trumpet I posted yesterday? I lost the tag, thus I'm not sure what's its name. I too was currious thinking I haven't had a white angel that has such long tendrils. Well, white it's NOT. This is the same flower this morning. This isn't uncommon for the flower to first appear white, sometimes, yellow, then turn pink. Brugmansias can be hardy in our region if planted in an ideal corner of the garden. Where it's protected from winds and mulched deeply to protect from hard freeze in the winter.

Yes, kwanjin the wind was rather high over the weekend. It was nearly impossible to do any repotting chores then. :))

It been a really good year so far with my daylilies, the deer have not visited. I have been putting eggshells into my beds since Feburary, maybe that will be the trick for 2011...LOL

Day Flower, I found this little beauty living under a deck at work, it was pulled as a weed, and I saved it from being trashed...It lived now in a part of my garden that is dappled shade all day.

Nice photos Buffy, the Daylilies are impressive! The 'Day Flower' is a nice shade of blue. the beebalms blooms are quite large. Since it's a cultivar, is it hardy there where you're?

Bee Balm works great in my garden I have several other varities in other places just now blooming right now.

The elusive brug. At one point the bloom was yellow, then it turned white, then finally pink.

Those Blood lilies are magnificent, I got some from Brent & Becky's end of season sale and am waiting for them to break dormancy. I rate their impact on nearly the same level as my Gloriosas (ie- off the scale).

Jack my Gloriosa is sending out buds. Is B & B a good reliable source for bulbs? (Lilies?). ge1836 roll drum! Here comes glorious spring blooms! Those are beautiful. I just added a double blooming clem. to the garden.

I took this photo of one of our daylily "beds" 2 days ago. We are in peak bloom right now for daylilies. This time of year always makes me so happy!

I want, want, want, want....and, oh yeah, want all of them! Thanks to everyone for sharing your pictures - I love looking at them.

What is the actual name of the football lily?

That daylily bed is beautiful - I'd be happy too!

Football, Blood Lily (aka Pincushion) is scientifically designed as Scadoxus Multiflorus. It's hardiness is rated as Z 8-10, maybe 7 with super mulch and drainage.

Lily-love, Brent and Becky's are excellent source for multitudes of bulbs, excellent customer service. They were in the DG top 30 ratings every year I've been visiting this site till this one (7 yr). They have an especially wide selection in daffodils (I believe they cross their own and present them as well as procure others from reputible breeders and sources). They have possibly one of the widest selections of bulbs for all yrear interest at their site/catelog. Prices have been creeping up yearly, but that seems to be the nature of that beast, usually they're prices are competitive.
Lily, my Goriosas are breaking ground and seem to grow a foot a day. Some should split their main stem and begin to set flower buds before long. I had 18 large container/pots of them last summer, they are overwintered dry in basement then repotted. It took about a week and a half last month to accomplish this task. Pic illustrates yield (347 tubers, started with 3 from MOBOT a dozen years ago). They were subsequentially re-potted. I used 14 containers this year and gave the remainder to friends for postage.
