Daylily Garden

Four years ago I started a Daylily garden.  I have always liked Daylilies.  They grow like weeds in some parts of the country, yet there are hundreds of different varieties that have been developed that can be very expensive to purchase.

They produce a lot of flowers.  And there is something about the fact that each flower only lasts one day--hence the generic name for this type of plant--that makes them special.  One day to bloom brightly, and then they are gone. 

They are hardy and tolerate sun, shade, rain, and drought.  An amazing plant really.

AND deer don't like to eat them.  

Four years ago I bought these sections of old fence from a friend, dug out the grass, and planted a few.  They have grown and sent out shoots, and now the garden is almost full.  We planted a few more this year, anticipating that in two more years the entire area will be filled with plants.

But look at how beautiful the garden already is.
