Garden Pic Wednesday: Magic Dancer Daylily
Today's Garden Pic is one a first bloom of one of my new hybrid Daylilies. It's called "Magic Dancer" It's a bi-color, which means 3 petals are a darker and 3 opposing petals are lighter in color. It was somewhat cloudy when I took this shot, so the light made it take on more of a pinkish shade to the camera, but to the naked-eye, it's really more on the purplish side. It's classed as a "re-bloomer," so I'm looking forward to seeing it again later in the season! Magic Dancer is one of 3 new fancy color lilies I've added to my garden in the past year. Over the years, I've lost a few of my others. The roots either just age out or disease gets them sometimes. I try to pick "rebloomers," so I can enjoy them twice--so if you're buying daylilies, looking for that. The Night Beacon Daylily out by the mailbox, which is a rebloomer, has fresh bloom stalks up right now! ****** Thursday is Independence Day,...
