Sunshine is delicious, rain is refreshing, wind braces us up, snow is exhilarating; there is really no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather.~John Ruskin
And what kind of good weather for daylilies can we find for today? It is sunny. Light breeze. Those are two good weather points in which daylilies thrive. Last week, we had an inch and a quarter of rain, the daylilies sprang right back to life. Rebloomers are sending up new scapes. Woo-Hoo .... Did not get any new photos of daylilies this AM. Will share from a previous day. Daylily NewberryAmaryllis presents a nice red bloom with a yellow green throat. Large in diameter, ie about 7". It is a tetraploid, showing a thicker bloom and scape. Here at
Oakville Farm, we offer Newberry Amaryllis for $12.00 per double fan.
Dublin Elaine is a nice reblooming daylily. It is a pink double with a green throat. And we sell the nice specimen for $7.00 per double fan. The bloom stands about three feet above the foliage. Dublin Elaine would make a nice accent to daylily Brocaded Gown (yellow) or daylily Double Dribble (coral).
Hope you have a good day and make it a good weekend. Until next time, Happy Gardening.
Our farm is located approximately one mile from Lake Gaston where the Roanoke River crosses from Virginia into North Carolina. We have raised daylilies for eight years, and hope you enjoy our collection as much as we. Daylilies are field grown and are available for shipment from April 1 thru October 1. We do not hybridize but pass on to you true plants that we have collected over the years. We have provided this blog as a resource for you to share information about your daylily growing tips, arrangements and to ask us questions.
