Something else I love about this time of year is the bloom of daylilies. They are scientifically called "Hemerocallis"- Greek word meaning: Hemera (day) - klos (beautiful).
Say hello to my Beauties.
I think my daylilies are unique. They are "Kwanso Flore Plenos". You can just call them Kwansos. Flore Pleno means they are triple ruffled or extra petals.
These flowers are a Native of Eastern Asia, China and Korea. They were in my yard when I moved here several years ago. However, I have transplanted them in different areas.
They show their bright, sunny orange colors during the day and close up at night. I was afraid they would not come up this year as their leaf beds look awful. I trimmed them back in the spring and shouldn't have. It caused the leaves to die and turn brown. Either that or the frost. I was just gonna take the blame.
I think that's it of my flower blooms for the year. Now I will focus on my little veggie plants I have growing out back. I hope to introduce them to you soon.
We saw a whole field of yellow daylilies adorning the highway as we were out riding this weekend.
This was something. A flower was taken by a flower. Thank you for sharing.

DeleteI prefer to enjoy without fretting about names. (What's your name again?)
ReplyDeleteI was all over the names wasnt I?
DeleteThe day lilies are beautiful. You can keep summer though. NOT my favourite season.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteYour daylilies are beautiful! I love the colour. I've got quite a few daylilies growing in my garden; they are definitely favourites!
ReplyDeleteThanks. I think so too.
DeleteLove daylilies too. So many pretty colors to dot the landscape. Perfect in your garden. ENJOY their blooms. I am crazy about thunderstorms too. One followed us home today.
ReplyDeleteIm ready for another storm. Its getting dry here.
DeleteBeautiful flowers and colors. I try to remember flowers names, but am very limited. We had some volunteer day lilies here (I had to ask what they were) I couldn't believe how pretty they were. But I haven't seen any more in the last two years. I think flowers are afraid of me. LOL You do good.
Deleteif I had planted them in the first place, im sure they would not be here now. Hahaha
DeleteYour day lilies are pretty. I love how they just keep on giving. I don't know the names of mine, but I have yellow, orange and rust colored ones. I haven't lived here long enough to transplant any, but I can wait to spread them around. Enjoy your summer heat!
ReplyDeleteI bet they are beautiful! It wont take them long to spread.
DeleteBeautiful flowers Lisa.

ReplyDeleteI have a couple day lilies around my yard as well. Wow that whole field of them is such a pretty sight.
Thank you. Yes they were also along each side of the road. So pretty.
