VERY busy day today, that started with rain in the garden this morning until noon, but …
It looks like the last two crosses from Marque Moon to Persian Market took. The doubles. Now whether it was the crosses or if the pollinators made it there first, I cannot say. But it is promising. If it holds. I have already seen a pod fall off that lily š¦ So fingers crossed. 2 for 30 something attempts.
What do the Marque Moon and the Persian Market have in common? The both have sparkles you can see in the sun.





Note, the Marque Moons are representative. I don’t remember/can’t tell which ones I took pollen from that day. But these were from that day.
If they hold, it will be extra special because this is the daylily where I stood and watched the landscape guy blow on the buds until the most mature one flew off.
Fingers crossed.
