Painting
in front of garden
We
saw the sign of kids lying on the grass when we enter public garden
in our city. Long time, we did not visit this little garden.
There
are plenty of blooming daylily. The word “daylily” refers to
flower which open in the sunrise and die at night.
Since
its stem has plenty flower buds, so blooming could take many weeks.
Color combinations may be more than hundreds in the world, but we saw
several dominant colors in our city garden:
-
orange
-
rose
-
burgundy
-
purple
-
pink
-
cream
-
lavender
Yellow
daylily
Flowering
occur in the Spring until early Summer in our place. Other place
could be till Fall season. We don’t know the number of varieties in
our area, but around 80,000 varieties in the world.

Daylily
Daylily
are adaptable plants, they spread to almost part of USA, and even in
Canada. The well known species called Hemerocallis
fulva.
Orange
with mix colors
If
we lucky enough, we may notice wild daylily, especially orange ones
at roadsides in many part of USA.
Orange
daylily
Easy
to adapt, also easy to spread into clumps. Crowd daylily may not
bloom, thus we need to divide regularly. Some people do it for every
three years.
Have
you experienced to grow daylily? What color?
We have some that you buy but I have never seen them.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend.
Hello,
ReplyDeleteThe daylilies are so pretty, I love all the colors. We have some yellow and the orange colored daylilies. Thanks for visiting my blog. Enjoy your day, wishing you a happy weekend!
I have never bought those flowers for my garden. Maybe I should...
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend.
Oh my...so pretty they are!
ReplyDeleteI grow a few colours and they spread every year. Love them.
ReplyDelete...my daylilies have lots of green leaves, but the flowers are still several weeks away.

I love day lilies. Unfortunately, the deer keep eating mine. People can eat the buds too, but then you get fewer flowers. They taste sort of like green beans.
ReplyDeleteI had read your comment and want this say to you and other readers. Each type of flower has its own taste, generally the orange flowers tastes sweeter than the red varieties. These taste a bit pepperier. If you want to use the flower buds, you should blanch them for a few minutes. Some examples: The flowers can be used as a garnish. But you can also fill them with ice, whipped cream and crème brûlée or with rice and crayfish.
DeleteYou can eat the flowers raw in a salad, fry in a batter or bake in bacon. They can be made into pancake batter or filled with ice, with salmon salad or with a mixture of cream cheese and chives. How delicious they are is shown by the fact that there is a golden yellow daylily called "Daily Bread".
You can stir-fry the buttons, and you can serve your guests this as a snack or put them in the soup.
Did you know this too? The Chinese also put them in salt. By the way, they use everything from the plant: they boil the roots and make sandals from old leaves. Greetings from the Netherlands ~Tine
Beautiful lilies in various colours. I have tried but not successful with day lilies.

ReplyDeleteVery beautiful flowers!!!
ReplyDeleteThose daylilies are so beautiful! Sadly I can't have them because I have cats at home and they are poisonous for cats.
