Good Morning

And how are all you daylily owners out there? Hope you walked through your daylilies this morning and to look at the pretty color that the daylily blooms are exhibiting.

The weather has been very very hot and dry here at Oakville Farm. Last evening, we set out soaker hoses and let them do their jobs for a while. I waited about an hour and a half before checking on one hose. AND oh my goodness. The hose had sprung a leak and water was spraying EVERYWHERE. So, took that hose up, threw it away and will purchase a new one this morning. Will set up all three hoses later, watch them more closely and let you know how it worked out!!!

Daylily bloomers for today ......

Hemerocallis Peggy Jeffcoat

This late blooming daylily is very pretty. It is about 2 feet tall and has a large double bloom. Being a rebloomer this very light, soft-colored bloom will give you beauty throughout the blooming season. We sell this daylily for $12.00.


Hemerocallis Trahlyta

Yes, I really do like this daylily. It is unique in its color. Almost 3 feet tall with a large 6" bloom which makes it stand above others. It is a rebloomer, showing color all season long. It is described as being grayed violet. And the striking darker purple eyezone and green throat, well, it is just beautiful. It sells for $8.00 per fan.


Hemerocallis Jungle Beauty

This daylily has a 2 1/2' tall scape and a 6" bloom. It is a real show stopper in the garden. Your eye is attracted to it for its rich full bodied color: black red color with a yellow green throat. It sells for $6.00 per fan.


Hopefully you enjoyed these daylilies and will find some at http://www.oakvillefarm.com that will fit perfectly in your yard. Have a great day and Until next time, Happy Gardening.
