deltamissI've been watching some clumps of what appeared to be daylilies at the side of my house, and this morning I was greeted by a wondrous sight.
They are in a grungy part of the yard next to the concrete wall. It's a shady to partly shady section of ground where moss and ivy grow side by side. Last year ageratum sprang up near there (and they're back!). This year, daylilies! I think I have the beginnings of a nice bed if I can get the area under control.
The most wonderful part? The daylilies have TRIPLE BLOOMS! I knew they existed but had no idea I had some in MY yard! This is the first year they've come up since I've been here.
When fall gets here, I'll transplant the lilies from the giant pot back there with them. Maybe even plant some hostas in the deepest shade. Shoot. If I wait long enough, a whole garden may appear around there. ;)

I taught Spanish and subbed a lot. I enjoyed 8th graders too; people think that's odd when I say that. But, it's marvelous how much they can learn when they are engaged in a subject.
Well, now I have to put some clothes in the washer. Life goes on - and a universal need is clean clothes. Sara Pederson from the tundra.
