There is still one of my day lily varieties yet to bloom, but I'm going ahead with sharing these because I'm not sure they are all going to be in bloom at the same time this year. The deer nibbled some buds, but then I sprinkled repellant around and so far they have stayed away since then.
First up is the lemon lily, perhaps my favorite! The yellow is so pure.
This is the 'Monterey Jack' I bought last year for $3!
Next up is the very old (registered in 1941) 'Black Falcon.' It's supposed to be one of the darkest day lilies ever developed.
And the similarly dark 'American Revolution,' registered inn 1972. They look quite different in these two pictures, but in the same light they are very much alike.
Today the air was very bad. It was even bothering me (official range "very unhealthy"). The only thing I did outside was to hang up and take down laundry. Mostly I did computer work, editing, volunteer stuff.
This does not bode well for the walking goals. If it wasn't making my eyes smart, I'd take a walk yet tonight, but I've conceded that this is bad- any exertion at all is problematic. The AQI here is 312, but I understand it is over 600 in some places in Minnesota. That is a lethal level for some people. It's literally off the scale. They say one more bad day here, and then maybe some relief.
