This stand of day lilies in my garden was started from a single fan given to me by my husband's sister-in-law in 1970. I brought a few of the plants to my present home when I moved here in 1990. There are about 60 separate plants in this one bed at present; I'm sure I will have even more when I divide them in a month or so (a long overdue job). Before the digging and dividing can begin, I have to prepare new flower beds to receive them, not a task I look forward to since the soil in my yard is mostly heavy clay. I have a lot of work ahead of me.

Never seen one of those before but it's a beauty! I need to divide my day lilies but not looking forward to the job.
You have some of the most beautiful lilies I've seen!
Gorgeous!
What a beautiful flower, and what a nice story behind. Interesting that you can divide them and then grow your own plantation ;)
A very nice looking lily. I just noticed a yellow lily opened here yesterday. It is a freak thing as the lilies have been out and are nearly down to brown leaves now. I don't know why this one popped out.
Thanks for looking at my picture and for the compliment about my early photography.
If you go to my new blog. It is called Sendai, Japan, you can see two photos that I took in 1954 or 1953. I forget.

Then there is another new one, you can find it when you click on my name. It is called Dances on Sunshine. Still a long ways to go but it is about photo composition and things like that.
Historical and gorgeous lilies.
This is a lovely daylily! I grow daylilies too but I believe you can grow many more varieties on the South than we can in Canada. Very nice.
Hi Pat
This is a true beauty... and a great picture also..

I haven't seen a day lily with three layers! It is beautiful! Day lilies are such reliable bloomers aren't they.

Very nice.
I've just loved this flower. I've never seen a Triple-layer day lily, too! Nice shot and colors!
Pat: That is one great looking Day Lily.
A beautiful lily with an informative text for us who are no expert in gardening.
Such a beautiful day lily with a wonderful history! The colors are very pretty.
Those are so pretty. I have never seen anything quite like these well other than normal lilies. And I love the soft colors of these.
Just WOW! How beautiful.
Well, I went over and joined Luiz Santilli Junior's flowers group and planted some flowers and they are already in bloom at my new blog, Thunder Maker.
It looks like I am going to have to try and catch up with everyone. Your flowers are beautiful.

Pat, such a stunner! I really like it. I think I need more daylilies. We have only the "ditch" variety, but we have a lot of em! lol
