It is still the dead of winter though it has been a rather warm winter in this area. I miss all the many blooms that happen here in the Spring, Summer, and Autumn. With that in mind, I took a “memory walk” around the gardens this week while recalling the plants that have been here, and will be retuning again this year.
Believe it or not, there are hundreds of cultivars in these gardens. I was amazed when I sat down with my “log of plantings” here and discovered that there are hundreds and hundreds of different cultivars.
My pride and joy are the more than 1000 daylilies I have hybridized that exist nowhere else on Earth except here in the Gardens At Waters East, except for the three home in Guatemala and the four homes in the USA with which I have shared some of the plants. They are pretty special and unique.
Since this year is a leap year and we all get an extra day - - Thursday the 29th of February, I thought we could view a few extra plants from the gardens.
Enjoy a few more, “snapshot” of flowers here.
