I love the picture, it will be so special for many years to come.

It will be interesting to see what they look like next summer. I uncovered my daylily's that I planted last fall. They still had yellow fans from last fall, so I cut them off, and I see new growth growing up from where I cut them. When I had covered them with leaves, I didn't wait for the frost to kill back the fans. I think I recall reading, that your suppose to let the frost kill the leaves, then cover them up, but I didn't want to chance losing them.

I took this picture right before I took the germinated seeds out and transplanted them. I used small throw away plastic cups. Guff - NY, Zone "?"   Guff  Posted on Tuesday, April 11, 2006 - 01:25 pm EST :    When you transplant daylily seedlings, is the seed coat part suppose to be just under the soil, or on top on the soil? I put mine just under the soil. Guff - NY, Zone "?"   Guff  Posted on Friday, May 12, 2006 - 04:44 pm EST :    Added a couple more to my collection. I wanted some lavender/blue hue Dips for some crosses I had in mind. In the fall I think I will pick up Lavender Blue Baby. Received my Bella Sera fan, looking forward to seeing it flowering.

Chicago Apache Eye To Eye Fortunes Folly Guff - NY, Zone "?"   Guff  Posted on Friday, May 26, 2006 - 01:44 pm EST :    Well my Bella Sera has a scape. I can see three flower buds forming so far. I wasn't sure if I was going to see flowers this year or not. I Can't wait to play and dab pollen. Guff - NY, Zone "?"   Janet43945  My Weather Posted on Friday, May 26, 2006 - 07:01 pm EST :    Bella is a beautiful lily.I have a cross on her this spring.Also some very nice bonus plants,that is the best part of getting an order,finding a great bonus.I have found one scape so far I still ,I still have a long time to go before bloom. Janet Ohio Zone 5   Guff  Posted on Saturday, May 27, 2006 - 02:47 pm EST :    What cross did you pickup of Bella Sera? I had found a site, where there are siblings pictures of different crosses, including Bella Sera. It was interesting to see how different they are, even though they are the same cross. If I can find it, I will post a link. Heres a picture of my Bella Sera. As you can see it already had a scape, and was cut before sending. So that is why I wasn't sure if I was going to see some flowers. The fan came from Florida, as you can see it's very big, and the scapes are huge. I put it into a pot, because I will be bringing it inside come winter, hoping for it to increase fans. They next summer, I will put a fan into the ground and see if it's hardy here. Guff - NY, Zone "?"   Janet43945  My Weather Posted on Monday, May 29, 2006 - 07:44 am EST :    Cross is "Ed Brown x Bella",a good cross,Ed seems to enhance everthing it is crossed on. Hope it works for this cross. Nice looking plant,I just put them in the garden and all seem to do well. Janet Ohio Zone 5   Guff  Posted on Tuesday, June 06, 2006 - 02:16 pm EST :    I'm up to 6 flower buds on the Bella Sera, can't wait to see one open. Guff - NY, Zone "?"   Janet43945  My Weather Posted on Tuesday, June 06, 2006 - 03:04 pm EST :    Make sure you get a picture,I'm waiting also. Janet Ohio Zone 5   Guff  Posted on Sunday, June 11, 2006 - 02:50 pm EST :    First flower on Always Lovely. I self pollinated it, since I have no other pollen. Guff - NY, Zone "?"   Guff  Posted on Wednesday, June 14, 2006 - 01:47 pm EST :    Bella Sera, getting close to opening Guff - NY, Zone "?"   Guff  Posted on Friday, June 16, 2006 - 12:08 pm EST :    Bella Sera opened today. My camera is very old. It isn't able to pickup the blue halo,and the diamond dusting and over all color. I wonder if Tet. Lavender Blue Baby, would give Bella Sera a much better blue halo/eye. Maybe I can save enough and pick it up in the Fall.
