My sister-in-law offered me a cutting of this plant that she had planted some time ago. I brought it home and it's multiplied over the years. As it's grown, I've divided it and it's beginning to take over my flower beds! I've searched in my gardening books of the name or other identifying information but haven't found much of anything. The blooms don't last more than a day or two (might it be some type of day lily?) but they sure are gorgeous when they burst forth, aren't they?

My poor patio has been neglected lately. I've just been so busy with other stuff that until yesterday I hadn't bought a single bedding plant. That's not like me. I'm usually working in the yard before the danger of the last frost has passed. Here is my first humble attempt at bringing some color to my patio. I still have a trunk full of mulch for my beds. Planting flowers is lots more fun than weeding and mulching, don't you think?
