Daylilies blooming

'Scarlet Orbit,' 'Chicago Petticoats' and 'Pandora's Box' have begun to bloom (observed first on Mom's birthday).

'Pandora' is a little earlier than billed, and should be followed by 'Little Maggie' and 'Marcia Fay,' then 'Pardon Me' and 'Rosella Sheridan.'

I did them a disservice by planting them under the baby oak tree and not next to the minisprinklers, but then it's so hard to get a hole dug in this nasty soil that the expedient thing to do was just plop them in the spots where the previous homeowners' plants had been! Getting them planted quickly was a good thing, at least.
