Silverkelts Woodland Rose Garden
seedlings keep rolling..
Category: DAYLILY HYBRIDIZING | Posted: Mon Jul 05, 2010 9:32 am Some of these were taking late! After the 4th celebrations, so not at their best.. Post Rose show is being dominated by my seedlings.. other stuff is in bloom, but I rarely pay attention this time of year.. lol. The seedlings beckon me out , and everything else is forgotten for a bit.. Seedling x seedling 
Blue Hippo X Bread & Wine

and the best out of the last couple of days..another ava gardner x gstq cross.. this was at 8:30 at night! Cant wait to see it bloom again...

Rose Colored Seedling, EMO as well, plus some rose shots
Category: DAYLILY HYBRIDIZING | Posted: Wed Jun 30, 2010 12:01 pm EMO = Early Morning Opening, this was was fully open by 6 am, I like EMO's as they open before you go to work.. this is a 5.5 inch lightly scluplted, with a green throat and a consistent yellow edge, if not exactly a substanial one. 
Some early shots of Surpasse Toute, brighter, bolder than I woudlve ever thought..

Roses and other stuff..
Category: Roses and Garden | Posted: Wed Jun 09, 2010 12:04 am Series of shots of the unknown gallica like rose... 
Comte De Chambord 
Set of shots on Excelsior strain of Foxgloves, some of my favorite types.. 
Ive also strung twine around some trees around the garden.. another preventive method on the pesky deer.. deer are rather laze creatures, and habitual.. so hoping this deterent will work.. If not I will string it both high and low, spray everything again with the deer deterent, if that doesnt work, I will string even more on the side of the road will they cross.. HA! I hate deer Silverkelt This blog entry has been viewed 221 times
