    Happy Bloomday! Your custom daylily has a stunning color. Does it have a name?

    Gorgeous, Hoov! I'm thinking that Thumbelina lav with the chartreuse santolina whose name I'm forgetting.

    Thank you all so much for your kind comments! The day lily has no name. I experimented with hybridizing a few and learned a LOT, and it was fun, too. It takes more room than I have to do it seriously, or for very long.

    'Lemon Fizz' Santolina, yes that would look fab with the lavender!

    Glorious photos as always. I especially loved your beautiful clematis, the hydrangea 'Shooting Star' (haven't seen that before) and the wonderful yellow peony.

    I just found your blog from GBBD - what a lovely garden you have! That Evelyn Rose is a treasure.
