Woo hoo! A few of my daylilies have started blooming. We had an unusual (for Wisconsin) 96 degree day last week that must have prompted the plants. "Moonlit Masquerade" opened beautifully a few days ago, even though it was only a 50-something degree morning. It's always one of my first bloomers.
Moonlit Masquerade has proven to be a reliable, consistent bloomer. It never disappoints me. The large 6" blooms are quite showy up close and from a distance. This cultivar was awarded the Stout Silver Medal in 2004, the highest honor a daylily can get. I have enjoyed this plant for many years and there will always be a place for it in my garden.
My daylilies are HUGE this year due to all the rain. Looking at them now I really should have done a bit more dividing. Coming up...my favorite time of the year!
