Gardening in mostly deep shade in Zone 6. My passion is adding more native plants to my landscape & clearing out the foreign invasives.

One thing about this flower is the #symmetry -- one triangle pointing one way and another neatly filling the remaining space, like a Mogen David folded back at the corners...
Interestingly, the colors have shifted this year and seem a little brighter... #curiouscases
Early Autumn 2020
Once again Breck's shamelessly retouched a photo so this bland pinkish-tan number, "Mildred Mitchell," appeared bright pink and lavender in their catalogue, #blastit
@hkyfvr take a gander at this one. This is an accurate capture of the true color. The catalogue showed it looking like this:

I should have known better! Breck's Bulbs is absolutely shameless.
You won’t believe this but I ordered the Mildred Mitchell too. I was so excited to see those colours on my Lily. First and last Breck’s order. They shorted me a balloon flower and my Aster looks like dead twigs. Who knows what colour my poppy will be. Supposed to be pink. 🤦♀️😡😡
I believe you @hkyfvr -- ANYONE would want a daylily in those colors!
Shameless is right 🤦♀️

Still thinking of giving this one away....
I rather like Mildred
My Mildred has not even bloomed yet. She is late this year. 🤔
Compare and contrast, @hkyfvr !
That is crazy. They must be colour blind at Breck’s. 🤔
