Quest for Excalibur

Montz

I have been very busy with work and catching up around the house. The dayliles that survived the trees falling on them are starting to open. This is one of my all time favorites. The work never ends though as a large oak that was leaning East after Katrina and West after Rita fell Sat. night in the terrible rain storm we had.

I agree with Carol; it sure looks like a deep velvet. Very nice depth of field Breland with good colors. Good one.

Super deep maroon color. I love the texture and detail on this survivor. It has a very hopeful feel to it. Nature can throw what it can at us but the flowers return each year.

Looks like velvet. Gorgeous, Breland. Guess I had better get to Montz and see if my leaning pecan tree fell on the house. Such excitement we have!

i love the velvet softness of this great looking daylily, Breland.
