Cedar Waxwing and Coral Majority

Coral Majority has been in our garden for a couple years, but just bloomed this year. It is a super interesting daylily. The first bloom stayed partially open all day. I liked it – just was surprised. The next bloom opened almost flat, but it took all day, and that day had a late rain.

The “outside” of daylilies are as beautiful (to me) as the inside. When this bloom opened flat, the only way to capture the “outside” of it was up. And what a treat, to capture Cedar Waxwing’s seed pod in that process! I did not anticipate that šŸ™‚

Cedar Waxwing was also in its second year in the garden here. Wow! I am pretty excited about the future of that daylily! In the “olden days”, I would have ordered a couple more Cedar Waxwings to accompany this first one, but alas, there is no more room at the inn. Although … there are a few fading hostas …

Nah, better keep a good balance.

I did try a cross with Marque Moon, but sadly, that one failed. The pollinators we’re successful though, so hopefully those seeds will survive and be viable and germinate.
