Daylily Season

In garden design, trees and shrubs are considered the bones of a garden.  In my gardens, the daylilies are the small bones.

When I revamped this garden last year, I only had the memories of the colors and heights as I designed the layout.  I love the way it turned out.  I was concerned about the fact that most of the plants in this garden have a spikey leaf form (hey, it's what I had on hand), but they differ enough to give some variety in texture.  The daylily flowers themselves add some texture from the open and rather sloppy habit of Prairie Moonlight (tall yellow on far left) to the tight double and clumping form of Frances Joiner (light orange far right).  I'll use this photo as a guide in my next garden.

While taking that photo, I discovered a surprise.

I have no idea what this is.  Don't remember buying anything like this.  It's behind Frances Joiner in the previous photo.  My best guess is that it's an unauthorized seedling of Frances Joiner x one of the nearby pinks.  Many years ago, I dabbled in hybridizing and used FJ quite a bit.  The double gene seems to be dominant.  I'll tag and pot this one for the move. It will need a name, too.

My most successful and only surviving hybrid is D. Lemontime, and this year it has proven itself as a keeper again.

This was a cross of Stella D'Oro x Ice Carnival.  Stella is, of course, the mother of all rebloomers.  Ice Carnival was my first "white".  Lemontime came out pretty much as I hoped.  Dwarf and early like Stella, light clear yellow and held above the foliage like IC, and it reblooms.  This year I realized it was much better than Stella.  Stella covers itself in blooms all at once early and then it's done until it reblooms later in the year.  Lemontime is still kicking out enough flowers to earn its place as a player in the peak season design.  That's it below Frances Joiner in the top photo, but Stella is nowhere to be seen.  In fact, I decided I'm over Stella, and won't be wasting time and a pot on transplanting it when I move.  I don't really care for that gold color anyways.  I much prefer the clear yellows.

Speaking of white, here is my whitest, Ruffled Parchment.

This is a fairly prolific bloomer when it gets going.  Definitely coming with me.  I want to get back into hybridizing when I get settled in my new home, and I'll try it with Frances Joiner.

Still trying to get the place ready to list.  I have a contracter lined up to do the necessary repairs to the outside of the house, and they keep pushing me back.  Grrr.  I've made a lot of headway inside the house and by the time they get that job done, I should be done inside.  I took a 3rd carload of junk to the dump this week.  Yeah, I'm still finding a lot of trash, but should be near the end of that.

Weather is still holding the unsouthernly coolth we've had all spring.  Some days in the high 80s but mostly less than that.  It has been humid, however, so it feels hot.

I have to say, it's a huge relief to not worry about rabbits in the heat.  I do miss them, especially baby bunnies, but not the worries and other negatives that went along with raising show rabbits.

Oh, by the way.  I have a new Facebook personal account for the gardens, and other things that interest me outside of rabbits.  I've posted more individual daylilies there.  Come on over and join me if you like.

A.C.

No, I'm not talking about air-conditioning.  In this case, A.C. stands for After Cat.

I told how I found a new home for Abby.  I've never been a cat person.  Until her, and her mother before her, my only experience with a cat was my mom's Siamese who was a real character.  I liked having yard cats, but Abby was such a good hunter, she was a serious threat to my beloved wildlife.  She was about 3 going on 4 years old, so I don't really remember what it was like B.C.  In those nearly 4 years, the landscape has matured a lot, and it attracts more wildthings.

Abby has been gone for about 2 weeks now, and I can really tell the difference.  The birds seem to know they are safe again, and there's more of them in the yard.  There's also bunnies.  Abby was known to snag young cottontails, but I'm seeing quite a few of them now.  I'm not completely deprived of the company of rabbits.

The Carolina Wrens are nesting somewhere I think.  Maybe in the bird house I hung on the porch a long time ago which was never used that I know of.  They investigated, but didn't seem to stay.  I love this chipper little bird.  I found some tiny blue eggs (sadly broken) on the ground under a crape myrtle but don't know what bird was nesting there.  Not a robin (the only bird I can think of right off hand that lays blue eggs), they don't nest here.  Robins only pass through here on their migration routes spring and fall.  I suppose I could do a search to figure it out, but I'd rather discover the nesters myself.  Maybe I'll catch them going into the tree if they use that nest again.

There is one other difference A.C.  I can hear mice (or rats) under the house again.  Ugh.  They can't get in, I stuffed wadded up chicken wire in all the cracks and holes under sinks.  Haven't had a mouse in house since.  The original tip was to stuff steel wool in such holes, but I figured a really determined rodent could figure out how to pull it out.  No way they can move chicken wire.  I had to resort to the old standby to cull the population a little...DeCon.  I shove a couple boxes under the house.  Nothing bigger than a rat can get under there so no other animals are in danger.  In that respect, I do miss Abby.

Still working at the dejunking and all.  Took another carload to the dump today.  The timeframe has slowed a bit.  The house I had fallen in love with was sold, and I don't have another at the top of the list yet.  There's still prospects but since there isn't one I'm afraid of missing out on, I'm back to a more organized approach to getting the place ready to list.  First get rid of all the junk, then declutter my stuff, and then the thorough cleaning.  I also have to put some money into a couple minor repairs to make it saleable, and that should be taken care of within 2 weeks.  I pled "need to sell ASAP" to the contractor so they'd put me on a priority list.  He came out this morning to scope the jobs, and will get the estimate to me next week, and said he should be able to do it the following week.  So I have that much time to continue what I'm doing inside.

The daylilies are hitting their stride.  Perfect timing.  I can tag the ones I want to dig up for the move.  I have a list of things to dig up, and I know where most of the daylilies are, but it helps to have confirmation when they bloom.

Speaking of house-hunting.  Mano, is broadband internet a big help!  My last move, I could only see a little remotely.  Now I can see almost everything I need to know before I decide to view the house in person.  Google Maps aerial views!   I punch in the address to see what's around a property.  Realtor.com and Zillow.com are my main sites, but I will visit individual realtors to see if they have more info on their website.  I eliminate a lot of houses using those tools.

Still don't know where I want to end up.  Could be SC, NC, or maybe even TN.  I don't really want to stay in this immediate area, but I'm open to possibilities in my state.  It would be easier to move within TN than going over the mountains, and it might be financially prudent to stay here.  I think TN has the lowest cost of living of the 3 states.  We'll see.

Busy weekend

Got so much accomplished this weekend!  First, there was the rendezvous in NC on Saturday where I delivered the last of the bunnies.  It was nice to see everyone, but I didn't stay for the whole day.  I still had a lot to do because people were coming for stuff Sunday, and then again on Monday.

Once the buns were gone, I could finish gathering up the rabbitry inventory for pick up on Monday. I had most of it packed up already, there were just a few things the rabbits were still using, so that didn't take long.

I concentrated on the furniture that was being picked up Sunday.  I had to get rid of some big excess items that I didn't want to move with me, and the only other option would have been to leave it behind which a new home owner might not appreciate.  Found an ad on craigslist for "free hauling".  Turns out the guy really wanted scrap metal (big business around here), but when I described the furniture, he said he could use it.  So I had to hustle up and get the stuff that was on the furniture off.  It was a nice young couple who were just starting out and needed a lot of things.  They took quite a bit of small stuff off my hands as well, so I don't have to haul that to Goodwill.  They even offered to move anything around that I needed.  I played the "old and no longer strong" card (mostly true) to get out of doing any more heavy lifting than I had to.  Same for the rabbitry stuff.   They couldn't get all the furniture on their truck, but said they could come back the next day.  I told him there was quite a bit of scrap metal that he was welcome to as well.  It's not a priority for me to deal with it (it's out back and out of the way), but he was so nice and helpful, I'm glad to help him financially in that way.

Then the gal who bought the rabbitry called and said she couldn't come Monday as planned but she could come that afternoon.  Sure, we can do that.  She didn't show up until 7 pm, but we managed to get her loaded up before dark.  She let slip that she was a single mom, and I warned her again that she needed to bring muscle to move that stuff.  She said no problem, her 14 year old daughter was strong.  She wasn't kidding.  That young girl was tall and efficient.  The family was pretty interesting.  At first, I thought she said she had 2 daughters, but a little later, 3 little boys piled out of the truck.  Oh my.  They lived a homesteading style of life, and utilized their animals.  She raised some heritage rabbit breeds for meat.  Turns out she's not a show breeder, she just had some dwarf breeds that could use the equipment, and a friend or two that would take what she couldn't use.  This passle of little kids were very well-behaved, and pitched in where they could.  Mom was very patient and never yelled at anyone.  She deserves a medal for raising that brood so well.

As they were tying down the truck and trailer, I stood on the porch to continue chatting.  It had started to rain again by then.  I was stunned to see the smallest boy do a face plant off the truck's tailgate!  It's almost like he did a cannonball (like into a pool) on purpose.  His face landed in the grass, but he barely missed smashing it on the driveway gravel.  His hands and knees hit the gravel.  He just got up like that was normal!  I wonder how often she has to visit the emergency room!

Now that all that big furniture and the shed is cleaned out, I can get back to the job of getting the house ready to show.  I have so much room now, I can actually see what I'm doing!  There were just narrow paths through the junk in the back bedrooms and it was hard to organize the piles into trash, Goodwill, and what I'm keeping.  Now I can.  A lot of it can go out in the shed.

I decided that getting the entire house ready to list wasn't going to happen as quickly as I wanted.  Now my goal is to get the main part of the house presentable so I can list this week, and continue to plug away at the chaos in the back rooms later.  Potential buyers will just have to look past that part.

Haven't had time to start digging in the gardens.  It's been raining for the last 4-5 days anyways.  After good soaking rains is the best time to dig so I'll try to do a little each day.  Oh yeah, and I have to drop everything to cut the damn grass again now that all this rain has been feeding it.  Need a dry day to get to that.

A friend gave some insight into downsizing as I'm doing.  It's liberating.  It really is.  Getting rid of all the unnecessary stuff in one's life is a good thing.  When I realized how right he was, I feel I can be even more ruthless about what I keep for the move.

Yes, I miss the bunnies.  And the chickens.  I'm sure once I get settled I'll want a pet rabbit.  No, I'll never breed again, but I'm a gardener, and every gardener should have a rabbit or two.  I already have a nice outdoor hutch being planned in the back of my head.  If my new home allows for it, I'll probably want a couple birds, too.

The new plan

When I last wrote, I hadn't yet made a final decision, and the blog would likely have just been the sporadic posts about this and that in the gardens.  Decisions have been made, and so the plan changed.

I've been putting my affairs in order towards the new goal...moving.  First order of business: because I'm downsizing, most of the animals needed new homes.  That has been successful.  The chickens and the cat are gone, and the rabbits will be within the next 2 weeks.  I had posted a craigslist ad for Abby (free to good barn), and a very nice couple came for her the day after the chickens were picked up.  They were in dire need of a good mouser for their horse farm.  I'm confidant Abby will do the job for them.  I had posted her first in the pets section but got no bites.  The same day I reposted her in the farm section, this couple contacted me.

Getting the chickens rounded up was a workout!  The buyer said he could come and get them that day.  If I'd had more notice, like the night before, it would have been easy to nab them at dusk.  It took me over an hour to catch and cage the young chicks.  They were confined to the pen but I had to chase them around it with a net.  Whew!  Then I took a break after I got them all.  Went back out to start on the adults, and there were 2 chicks running around the pen.  WTH?  How did you get out?  I think what happened is that they were hiding behind the food can.  I thought I had it blocked off so they couldn't get back there, but guess not.  I wasn't counting as I nabbed them.

Catching the adults was a lot easier than I thought it would be in broad daylight.  Several hens were on the nest, and I just picked them up and put in the pen.  The ones that weren't in the box immediately went in when I vacated a hole.  So I just picked them up, too.  Once all the hens were penned, I threw out some cracked corn for them (their favorite treat), and that lured the 2 roosters in.  Oh and I wasn't done yet.  I had to pack up all their stuff, food, etc, as the buyer was getting the whole kit and kaboodle.

However, there is one chick I couldn't catch.  I had put the 2 biggest cockerels out of the pen about a week ago, and they were adjusting to free-ranging with the adults.  One walked right in when I opened the gate.  The other wouldn't.  Later I put the cage full of chicks out of the pen, and he was very interested in them.  I tried again to net him but he was really wary and quick!  Later that day, after the others had been picked up, I left the gate to the pen open and I found him in there.  I shooed him out because there's no water in there for him, or food, and I didn't plan on leaving the gate open all the time.  He is now very leery of me.  I tossed out a little of Whipper's food which I did see him eat, but other than that, he doesn't seem to want anything from me.  He's mostly staying at the back of the yard, and I guess he's finding plenty to eat.  I assume he knows where water is.  There's bowls scattered around the yard.  OK fine.  I guess he'll be part of the landscape after I'm gone.

In the meantime, I'm also getting the house in order to list it.  Starting with dejunking it.  Good lord, did I accumulate a lot of junk!  There was so much, I separated it into recyclables.  Plastic, paper, metal.  I'm lucky that a dump (convenience center)  is just down the road on my way to town, and they do recycle many things.  I spent several days going through the bedrooms and kitchen, and got ruthless about throwing stuff away.  I think I had over 200 lbs of magazines alone!  I kid you not!  I sometimes read them again when I ran out of reading material.  Garden mags, rabbit mags, poultry mags, and a lot of miscellaneous mags.  And I just didn't throw them away.  I went through the garden mags as I was bagging them up to cut out articles I wanted to save.  Plastic filled 2 large garbage bags, and scrap metal and hardware filled 2 feed bags.  Oh and then there was the usual household trash on top of that, including quite a bit of junk that couldn't be recycled.  My car was stuffed!  But it's done and outta here.  I'm sure I'll find more as I continue the dejunking, but at least that's most of it.  Next car load will be to the Salvation Army.

Now that the animals and most of the junk has been dealt with, I'll spend a little time in the mornings in the gardens.  I'll be digging and potting things up to take with me.  When the heat runs me inside, I'll work more in there.  I hope to be ready to list within 2 weeks.

Where am I going?  Don't know yet.  I spend a lot of time on Realtor.com, and have bookmarked a lot of interesting prospects.  The one at the top of my list is in SC.  Another reason I want to get listed asap before that house is gone.  It's my plan to run down and see it in person as soon as my place is on the market, and if I still like it, I'll put a contingency contract on it right away.  My realtor was very encouraging about the market in this area, so I hope to sell pretty quickly.

Currently showing

Iris are the stars of the gardens right now.  I don't have that many.  I had more, but over the years, they were lost or something.  It happens.  Here's the ones that are blooming right now.

Siberian Iris

Bearded Iris 'Stairway to Heaven'

"Heritage" and Siberian Iris.  I call this "heritage" because in a way, it is just that.  This was one of several iris that were already there when I bought my place in Michigan circa 1995.  I brought some with me when I moved down here, and this is the only one still in residence.  I don't know what the variety is called, but I assume it's an old-fashioned cultivar.  This photo doesn't really do it justice (cloudy day).  I'm not crazy about yellow and red combos, but here I like the gold and burgandy look.  I call it "Brandywine" for lack of a known name.

I captured some wildthings in the last few weeks.

Bumble Bee on Chive flower.  I think she was watching me as I snapped her closeup.  She became very still, and when she did move she faced me.  I'm sure the big black camera lens so close was off-putting.  After a few moments, she seemed to relax and went on about her business.

Brown Thrasher.  Taken through window screen.  Don't see these very often.

Male Ruby-Throated Hummingbird.  Yes, Virginia, hummingbirds have feet.  Someone asked me that once. This guy was very close to me.  The feeder is hanging from the porch roof so I have a great vantage point for captures.  I just sit in my chair with camera in hand and wait.  I just wish I could have caught him with the sun shining on his throat.  As you can see, without sunlight hitting it just right, he's actually black-throated.  That's the tip of his tongue sticking out the end of his beak.

I wonder how that unusual feature came about on the evolutionary plain.  I believe almost all hummingbirds have that ability to "turn it off and on".  How did the birds learn that facing a certain way made their colors shine?  Did they notice how their adversaries reacted to it?  Hummers are notoriously territorial so anything that gave them an advantage against usurpers would be an asset. Or was it attractive to the females?  That's usually the reason male birds are the more colorful sex.  I can't say I've seen a male sit and flash his intended.  They have an amazing mating dance flight which wouldn't show off that color.  At least I can't see how since it's such a fast dance.  They swing wide loops in front of the female.

Rose-Breasted Grosbeak.  I only see these for a short time in the spring.

Indigo Bunting.  I began to see these when I let more and more of the property revert to natural habitat.  They appear in spring and summer when those grassy weedy areas are well grown.

I doubt I'll have a vegetable garden this year.  I'm thinking about moving the garden boxes to where the old shed used to be.  Closer to the house and water tap.  So, until I make up my mind about that, I'm not doing anything there.  I might try some tomatoes in containers.  Got some plastic bins kicking around here that would be good for that.  Wonder if I could grow cukes that way.  Might try.

Nice days finally.  It could be like this all the time.  No hotter, no colder.  Dream on.

Spring 2013

Wow, it has REALLY been a long time (3 years!?!) since I touched this blog.  This post is just a quicky to update.

Out of sheer laziness, I began to do all the garden/nature blogging at the other blog, Spring Creek Gems.  It was laziness because there's 2 different logins.  I was usually logged in (or half logged in) at the other so I just stayed there.  I decided today that I should use this one for garden and nature stuff again.  So that's what will be happening here from now on.  In the meantime, you can read past posts about all that at the other one.  I'll probably begin transferring some of it from there to here as time permits.  I might create some pages as well.

Daylily Daydream

I wrote this one lazy hazy day in the garden during daylily season. I just came across it in my archives. Anyone with a large daylily collection might appreciate the sentiment.

Daylily Daydream

Daylilies like fireworks
Bursting on high.
Daylilies like starbursts
In the summer sky.

Starting out slowly,
One bloom at a time.
Charming me, teasing me,
One day at a time.

Then the Grand Finale,
Building in tempo.
Filling my senses
With the final cresendo.

Alas, the Grand Finale,
It comes much too soon.
The last sparks fall and fade,
And leave me wishing for June.

What's in bloom:

Scotch Broom is nearly finished. I'll cut those back pretty soon to get them in bounds. They get pretty sloppy as they grow older.

Korean Lilac "Miss Kim". The Persian Lilac finished about a week and a half ago. I prefer the Persian to the Korean. It's closer to the old-fashioned lilacs that I miss from the north in both scent and flower form.

Siberian and Bearded Iris. Don't have as many Bearded Iris as I'd like. I think I'm down to just the two varieties. Blue/white and yellow/burgundy bi-colors. The blue/white is called "Stairway To Heaven". The yellow/burgundy is an unknown heritage variety that I brought with me from MI.


Daylily "Stella D'Oro" is just starting.

Weigela. There's one mature shrub, and some smaller ones that were added last year. I've come to appreciate this pink shrub for its fairly long bloom period that fills in the late spring niche.

Azaleas are going strong.

Creeping Phlox is winding down.

I'm making some changes. Again. The round garden in back has strayed from the original plan. It started out as the "White Room (with black curtains)". Then I planted red and purple clematis on the 3-sided domed trellis over it. Turns out the red and purples were transient. They bloom heavily in late spring and die completely back when finished. So the trellis is bare for most of the year. Added pale pink and white clematis to fill it in, but they've been slow to do so. Added scent with lavender and rosemary, and some other scented plants that weren't white or black. This photo was taken in 2007.



The rocky area was added later. It serves a couple purposes. It adds some architectural interest, and it's a place to toss the rocks I always find wherever I dig. After the fence was installed, I expanded the backside to the fence. I've filled the space between the garden and fence with flowering trees and shrubs, and big ornamental grasses. The whole thing is just a mess right now.

I got to thinking about a trend that includes food crops in landscaping. It's a design for suburban yards that have to display curb appeal, and may not have room for a food garden. Food plants can be included without taking away from the landscaping.

I don't grow a big veggie garden anyways. Just some salad stuff. Tomatoes, cukes, onions, and maybe some herbs. I have the raised beds I built for this purpose, but realized I could include these things in this garden. The tomatoes can grow on the trellis. The cukes can ramble through the larger perennials. Strawberries can be included in the groundcovers. I can add some blueberry bushes, and tuck onions in wherever they'll fit. I can still have the flowers and scents.

So that's the new plan. I'll be in the garden if you need me.

Happy Spring.

It was such a rough winter. Cold, snowy, cold. I don't think I was able to open windows more than once or twice. Even then it was only on the south side. But all is well now, and spring has sprung. Weather has been wonderful.

I'm in a rather bad place right now. I need to repair some things but money is tight. I can only do so much myself and have to hire someone. As a result, I'm a bit depressed and lacking much interest in the gardens. Good thing most are fairly mature and don't need a lot of work once I get them cleaned up.

The first tasks are cleaning out the winter weeds and cutting back the ornamental grasses. I've started on that. The cutting down of the grasses is a big job. I've got a lot of them! I haven't figured out the best way to do it. My hedge shears aren't very effective. I end up on my knees with a pair of large scissors. That puts the least strain on my old body. I bought a new higher end pair of grass shears and will see how that works. The nice thing about the grass cuttings is that I can just leave them in the garden. It's a great weed barrier mulch.

For the first time in over 20 years, I spent nothing on mail orders. I usually spend way too much on plants and seeds. I think my daylily sources miss me. The one sent the catalog 3 times. I had made the usual wish list out of the catalogs, but never sent it. I decided to just let it go this year. I still have daylilies sitting in the nursery bed from 2 years ago! I have a pile of seed packs that were never planted. I should take care of what I've got, and save some money. I usually spend just as much at local nurseries and I'll cut back on that, too. Like I said, my heart isn't in creating new gardens or revamping others right now. I've wasted money on plants and then lost them because they sat around waiting for me to put them somewhere.

I think one of the reasons for my lack of interest is that the 2 year drought took such a toll. I tried to plant trees and shrubs and lost many of them. I may try again now that the weather pattern has come around and it's more like it was when I first moved here. We are getting enough rain, and I have a reliable source of water now.

I might try some Dogwoods again. I've only got the 2 originals left, and they are behind in development. All the rest were lost to the drought. It's rather odd that this southern native is so wimpy. I so admire the mature Dogwoods I see around the area.

What's in bloom:

Daffodils
Okame Cherry
Red Dead Nettle
Bird's Eye Speedwell

The last 2 are wild flowers that I've finally identified. I recently bought a new book - WildFlowers of Tennessee and Ohio Valley and Southern Appalachians. I found it at the welcome center in the Smoky Mts Park. I find a lot of cool things there. Excellent field guide!

I've been trying ID the Dead Nettle since I moved here. It's a low mat of reddish- purple growing here and there. I'd been pulling it out of the gardens as a weed, but after learning more about it, I decided it was a nice groundcover. The book says it's an annual, and I had noticed it disappeared after setting seed. It also says it's invasive which is true, but since it does die back, I think I'll leave it from now on. These kinds of early "weeds" often help keep other weeds down.

The Speedwell appeared in the lawn as lovely patches of tiny pale blue flowers. I wanted to transplant it but the book says this is also an annual. Not sure if there's a way to preserve it in a garden if I might pull out pre-bloom plants thinking it's just a weed. I should try. It's that pretty.

I like "messy" groundcovers. Since most of the plants in the perennial gardens are large, they fill in the spaces around them and keep weeds down. Other things I use are creeping sedum, creeping thyme, creeping jenny, creeping phlox. Whew, that's a mouthful of creeping!

The planters I started last year are successful so far. These are the ones under the porch roof. Instead of the usual and boring impatiens, I tried some shade-loving perennials. All the plants except one of the fancier coral bells have emerged. I haven't seen the ferns yet, but I hope they are just later to break dormancy. I gave the planters a shot of water during the winter since it doesn't rain there. I'll give them more time before I change anything. I should have stuck some small spring bulbs in there. I'll do that this fall. Hmmm, maybe I'll try some lily bulbs, too. I can buy those now. I love the lilies but they are often damaged as I'm spring-weeding. Might work better in the planters, and the heady scent on the porch would be wonderful.

December

Boy, did I drop this blog! I usually have so much to talk about in the garden. Things just kinda got away from me this year. I didn't get as much done as I wanted, didn't even get the things that needed doing done.

I have a bag of daffodil bulbs that never went in the ground. Now the ground is freezing. I might just pop them in the perennial pots on the porch.

We got the first real snow of the season yesterday. A good 4" or more that piled up so prettily on everything. I think this is the most snow I've seen since I've been here.

I've been indoor gardening so I can talk about that. A pot of paperwhites is blooming on the table. These smell so sweet, it's almost sickening sweet. Definitely would be overpowering en masse. I've created a garden in the corner by the computer desk. I'll get pix and talk about that next time.
