joey said...: Hi Gina ... cute comment (I don't have a dog, simply an unruly husband who, though very helpful, is often interferring). You must know I have been gardening for eons and am 'as old as dirt'. All of these daylilies are over 25 years old and dug and divided more times than I can count. Their offspring reside in my children's gardens and am now carting some to the cottage, which I swore I would NEVER do! But rules are meant to be broken and they look lovely there also.

Hi dear Cat ... big thanks and a huge compliment coming from you, oozing with talent behind the lens. Wishing you a lovely week ... Hugs

Thanks Katarina ... I love them also and, like old friends, delight each summer when they return.

Hi Jen ... you have a delightful blog also. It's been fun connecting with you.; Sunday, August 03, 2008
