Take time to enjoy the flowers. I have two clumps of two types of day lilies in front of my work shop. One a melon colored that has been putting out flowers daily for about a month. The other one a bright yellow that just started blooming. The two clumps were started from a single bulb given to me by our daughter Sarah Jane.
It was developed for a church, Willow Creek in Chicago, and that is its name. It was given out to some members who did volunteer work and she gave me hers. I planted it and later was able to divide it into two plants. Each plant will put out large lacy flowers for about a month. I didn’t plan it that way but with the melon colored ones starting a month earlier than the Willow Creek I get to enjoy flowers, two or three new ones daily for two months every summer.
