Daylily

We planted a couple of day lily bushes a few years ago, and they bloomed really well the first year or two. The last couple of years, they haven’t done as well. I imagine I need to divide them or separate them or something, but I just never seem to get around to it. This year, when we redid one of the flower beds, Tim moved one of the daylillies and it is really struggling just to stay alive. Of the three that are remaining in their original spot, only one of them is getting buds and acting like it is going to bloom. Oh well, you can’t win em all!

Yesterday, I noticed that the one that is doing well had a lot of buds on it, and I took a picture, with the intention of blogging about “waiting on a bloom”. Obviously, I never got around to making that post 🙄 So, here’s yesterday’s picture, buds waiting to open:

Buds on my daylily

And this morning, I was greeted with this, my first bloom of the season:

My first bloom from our daylillies

There, a flower picture for the day 🙂

It’s going to be downright hot here today – hope everyone else has a bright, happy, sunshine-y kind of day :mrgreen:

    oh wow! from one day to the next? I’m still waiting on my hosta to bloom, I don’t think it’s gonna open! and my daylillies aren’t blooming either! we moved them last year, some of them and they had buds last time I looked but still not open….we just aren’t very good gardeners. (:
