Sorry I took so long to get back, I swore I wasn't allowed to go on the computer until I got some house work caught up. Plus I had to bring my kitties to the vet and to save some money, I've been driving an hour both ways. So that took up my whole morning.

Pixie, the other three I got are Chicago Salmon, Genesee Country and Xochimilco, which I was happy to see that Linda had no idea how to say either! lol : ) I know I wanted Genesse County because it's an early bloomer. Chicago Salmon for the color and I can't remember why I wanted the Xochimilco, I think it is also an early bloomer. I'm going to double check my notes.

Ngam they had a decent amount blooming, my problem is, I like coral rose daylilies and most of the ones blooming now are yellow, peach, red, or orange. They did have three very pretty pinks blooming like crazy. I remember one was Pink Vogue, and another was Pastel Pink. They did say their peak was earlier than their open house weekend which took place the weekend of the 17th. And that the daylilies that were blooming now are usually later than this. If you looked at the whole scheme of things there, I would say that maybe 20% or so were in bloom. I took some long shots, but I don't think you can see all the color. I'm going to check.

Here's a picture of Genesse Country from their website. Coral Rose is a very hard to find color out of mid season so I am on a mission to find any that color that bloom early or late. : )

Ooops it's Genesse Country not County like I wrote...
