Your list is huge today. How is the deadheading going? My hands are stained purple. They won't look normal until at leadt September.
Love that Sweet Dark Chocolate!

Karen, du Glückliche! Bei dir blühen sie noch. Wir hatten sehr heißes Wetter, keinen Regen. Wochenlang haben die Hemerocallis jetzt geblüht, doch jetzt ist die Saison vorbei. Gestern haben wir drei Taglilien geteilt, damit wir Geschenke für andere haben!
In diesem Jahr hab ich keine gekauft, nur eine hab ich geschenkt bekommen, von einer Züchterin!

With all of these rich red blooms like 'Sweet Hot Chocolate'... well, I admit, you're even wearing me down a little bit in my anti-daylily ardor. Gorgeous!
