Now that we’re in the height of summer many of my roses have taken a break from blooming but my garden is still full of flowers.
The hostas are flowering and so are most of the daylilies, black eyed susans, sunflowers, balloon flowers, petunias, impatiens and many others.
Today I thought I’d show you a few of my beautiful daylilies.
I think this one is called Candy Stripe or something to that effect. If definitely has the word Candy in it’s name.
I grow this daylily in my planted front boulevard because it blooms several times each season.
The next daylily is Sammy Russel and I think it’s beautiful. I love it’s vibrant color!
Another colorful daylily that grows in my backyard is Bonanza. I love it’s bright yellow color.
Last, but not least, is Cream Drop. I grow this daylily at the end of my driveway in front of my Valencia and Breath of Life roses. It’s soft yellow color goes well with their peachy orange.
I know that many of our Green Thumb Sunday participants grow daylilies. What’s your favorite one?

Lovely! We have those ugly orange lillies that you can’t kill back by the mini-barn……………I’ve tried digging them up, wacking them with the weed eater, spraying them with weed killer and they won’t die!
Mine’s up!

Those are beautiful. I’ve also posted a photo of some of my lilies as well. Good day for it.

I love the Cream Drop one – haven’t seen a plain(ish) coloured one for yonks! My lillies have failed this year but will probably try again for next year 🙂 I just put my post up – happy GTS

What beautiful colours the daylilies are. Stop by The Gardener Side and see how I’m picking a fistful of dollars for GTS.

I have some of all of these in my front yard. I heard that lilies, (I don’t know about these varieties) are toxic to cats. Is that true? My cats are fine, but maybe they just know to stay away from them.

Absolutely gorgeous! Thanks for sharing!
