I remember saying to you, just choose the ones that you like and they are all stunning. The sun wasnt shining when I took the pic unfortunately, I love them all !!!! I cannot get over how lovely they are, last summer they grew well but just the odd flower but this summer they have come to life. Thank you so much for them, I see why they are a favourite of yours.

So glad you like them :-), you need to look closely at this one when the sums on it it has what's called diamond dusting , a coating that makes it shimmer in the sun.
They'll just keep getting better each year now they've settled in they obviously all love your garden ;-).
I have so many more that need splitting this year a few have become so large they haven't flowered well , with so many there are only so many I can split each year,then then I have to decide which seedlings I'm not keeping, best get into weight training now lol.

That can be a problem with Daylilies and Iris, the clump gradually stops flowering when you think it's got to a good size.

I didn't know that Siris, crocosmia is like that too isn't it.?
Yes Kathy, I love them, this one has a new flower so I will look out for the diamond dusting tomorrow, exciting.
Pump the weights Kathy, sounds like hard work.
You sent me 9 ? , I have lost one ?. There is one more to flower so it's either apple swirl or always afternoon.

I bought Always Afternoon about 5 years ago, took a while to get established, but this year it is flowering itself to death.

Maybe its a bit later to flower than the others Siris? Plenty of growth so I will await. Im hoping its Apple Swirl to be honest, as that looks lovely.

They are both flowering here now Dawn , oh I hope it's 'Apple Swirl' too!! Remember that was a proliferation so not as big but it is usually a good increaser, if that's which it is it may not flower till next year now , proliferations usually take two years to get to flowering size.

Simbad, You sent me a proliferation 2 years ago, would it have been Space Coast Dragon, flowered this year first time, gorgeous.

Now you guys, your getting very technical lol, I've had to Google proliferation. The flowers will be lovely whenever the decide to come.

It was Siris :-), and the parent came from Wylie,these plants travel all over the world lol . Spacecoast Dragon Prince has just started flowering here there are so many buds together they're having trouble opening!!
Thank goodness for google Dawn ;-)
