| "My favorite daylily that graces my garden came with no name." When it blooms it has 8-9" flowers that look like your best cream colored porcelain plates... NOW picture that you have just finished eating, a slice of the BEST homemade blueberry pie, made from the plump wild berries that spread deep into your woods...The colors in these flowers look "exactly" like your empty plate right now... Therefore, I have named my favorite daylily "Blueberries & Cream"... |
 | ||
| The little 5"daylilies to the right were ALSO unnamed, SO I have named them "Apricot Truffles"... You can see what a large daylily "Blueberries & Cream" is... Now with all this talk of Blueberries and Truffles, are you indulging YET??? |

Oh what a gorgeous Day Lilly. Both are wonderful. I can hardly wait for fall for some of mine to bloom. Way too hot still. Hugs, Marty
These flowers are just lovely my friend. And...I love their names. I wish I could grow flowers. I seem to kill everything. It's sooo depressing!
Love to you~

Oh my, these are the most beautiful daylilies I have ever seen -- hands down!
What amazing colors, I've never seen a pure purple like that in a day lily before! Just beautiful and so big-enjoy!
Wow! Your day lilies are gorgeous! I have never seen anything like them before! Love the colors, my mouth is watering :)
Gorgeous coloring. I wish mine were still blooming.
I need to add some different daylilies to the garden at Linderhof -- these are stunning! And I love your names. I have other llilies but no day lilies except the old fashioned orange ones and the new little stella d'oros.
You have inspired me! But hey, I can't ask anyone for those by your names -- so I'll just have to look at pictures!
Hi Donna,
How beautiful they are and I love their names.

Hi -- this is my first visit to your blog, but it won't be my last! Very interesting -- and those daylilies are simply spectacular. All of my daylilies are ... yellow. sigh.
I found you through your comment on Chari's blog -- and was intrigued by the name of your cottage. I will sign on as a follower so I don't lose track of you!

We had a busy weekend celebrating my husband's birthday, so I'm late catching up with my visits to Conghaile Cottage. Your day lilies are exquisite. I only have the common orange variety. This make me think I need to spread my wings. :-)
