I've had various daylilies blooming in my garden during the past month.
 |
| 'God Save the Queen' |
'God Save the Queen' is glorious. Large bloom and rich colors.
 |
| 'Eight Miles High' |
'Eight Miles High' has long petals that droop a little and give it an unusual look.

 |
| 'Bela Lugosi' |
'Bela Lugosi' has large blooms and a dark, almost velvety look.

| Hand for scale |
 |
| 'Inwood' |
'Inwood' has cool color-tipped ruffles.
 |
| Common orange daylily |
I don't know the proper name for this daylily. I think it may be sometimes called a "Ditch Lily". It is ubiquitous in my neighborhood.
 |
| Old English D in the back! |
 |
| 'Spiny Sea Urchin' |
The ruffles on the edges of 'Spiny Sea Urchin' occasionally look like spines or teeth. Smallish bloom.

| 'God Save the Queen' on the left, 'Spiny Sea Urchin' on the right (and in different light so the blooms look different then the above photos) |
 |
| 'Mildred Mitchell' |
Mildred Mitchell has smaller blooms than I expected. I like the lighter petals behind the front petals.
My favorite daylily we have is 'God Save the Queen'. It's spectacular.
