    Seeing those beautiful flowers must really have boosted your spirits when you got home. Isn't Mother Nature just THE best? :D

    Beautiful!! BTW did you take that photo with a flash? If so does that mean you were doing a garden tour in the dark? (I have been known to do that. :))

    Oh, those are really pretty. Nice way to be welcomed home from work.

    I wouldn't fret too much about the name. I have 7 patches of different Daylilies and only two of them have actually been the cultivar named on the packages. :rolleyes:
