First off . . .JoNelle, THANK YOU for furnishing this service!!!
Deer seem to have taken a vacation from my yard, so for now the daylilies are safe . . They have been allowed to grow and to have scapes and I’ve had some blooms. I don’t know if rains have greened up the deer’s regular grazing areas or if the Bobbex helped to keep them away. But whatever the reason, I am grateful to see some scapes and blooms.
As I have mentioned to several, what I find unusual this year is the emergence of new fans on the California grower plantings from the fall. I had bought some plants from Maryotts and then I bought plants at the auction from Goldcoast. Most of these new fall plantings added fans over winter. I have bought double-fan plants that remain double fan plants for a good while (some still remain so), but these plants increased . .and wow am I surprised!!! EX: I bought a double fan of Winston Churchill at the auction. and I now have five fans. For me that is highly unusual. But that happened with several other plants from the sources I named above. It could be just a fluke, but if so, it was a most welcome fluke. Has anyone else had such results?
I am sending JoNelle a pic of WISPY RAYS that perhaps she can post. I had wanted this plant for a long time and I broke down and bought it from Maryotts in the fall. I am ever so pleased with it. It was all I had hoped for and more.
