Last year I had to dig up about 20-30 of my daylilies to move as they were right along the house and we got a new house. I didn't think I would have any blooms but more than 1/2 of them actually have scapes on them. I am SO excited about this. It will probably be another week or so before mine start to open but I go out and talk to them every morning *lol*

Here is a HUGE surprise in my garden this year which I was thrilled about. I tried starting double yellow and double purple seeds inside last year and had about 6 little seedlings which I planted outside too early. The seedlings all died. Next year I will wait longer before trying to put inside seedlings outside :(

I had this in my garden last year and collected TONS of seeds from it. Guess I missed a few seeds as this actually wintered over in my garden. In spring I didn't know what they were so I was weeding them out. I must have missed a few and have 3 plants which escaped my weeding. I also got cleome which self seeded this year for the first time. That has never happened in my zone 5 garden before either.

2 valuable lessons learned:

Wait longer before transplanting out
DO NOT weed anymore *lol*
