Nice, Celeste! I love Lady Eleanor, Rhinestone Kid and Antique Rose. Love the delph, too.

Thanks, Granite! That one is actually Flore Pleno, not Kwanso. Sorry about that. It is quite different, having several layers of petals. http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/showimage/229662/ People often get it confused with Kwanso. Both are species daylilies, not hybrids, and they will take over a bed like the 'ditch lilies', as they are stoleniferous. Kwanso is also a double, but not as many petals. Here's a pic of it, with the second pic being another one of Flore Pleno. The full name of each is Hemerocallis fulva 'Kwanso' and Hemerocallis fulva 'Flore Pleno'
