Pretties from the garden: Hydrangea, Daylilies and Oriental Lilies...

Greetings from The Perch! I hope that you had a great day. Today we were very busy packing the motor home for our trip to the mountains. As I was in and out of the house I noticed some new beauties blooming in the garden, and snapped a few photos since likely these will not be blooming by the time we get back. (The photos are not the best as I was in a rush. Ha!)

The one below is a hydrangea that we have had a few years.

It didn't do well where we originally planted it, so we moved it

to the side of the garden shed, where it now flourishes.

I love that the petals are both blue and white,

and totally different than any of our others.

I believe it was from the line Forever and Ever.

They start slow, but once established they are stunning...

These are Lake Carey Oriental Lilies.

I started them from cheap WalMart bulbs

just last year. They are the softest pink.

What a buy!

Below is a Mystical Rainbow Daylily, also purchased

last year from a mail order breeder.

You can't read the garden statue in back, but it says:

"I don't remember planting this".

The story of my life!

The one below is a Ruby Spider Daylily,

also purchased last year by a daylily breeder.

When you order from breeders, you get some

lovelies that you would never see in home and

garden stores...

Thanks for stopping by!
