This is the time when our garden transitions into a green oasis. The only color is at the periphery and not really visible from anywhere but the front curb. The garden that borders the street and the one literally out in the street in the traffic island are both ablaze with lilies and daylilies in yellows, oranges and reds. Most of these daylilies are minis and came from our very small prior garden. These are our Garden Bloggers Bloom Day offerings for July. To see what's blooming in other gardens, visit Carol at May Dreams Gardens.

So prety! Maybe summer really is here...

Wow, you have a lily show. Many varieties of daylily. I love them too, but only have four different kinds. Yesterday I went to a daylily experts garden. I was in heaven. So many I never had seen before. I will post on them soon. You have some I never saw either.Happy GBBD. Love those people pots every time I see them. You are very creative.

Thanks for this! I'm going to look out for 'Gold Dust'. I like its slightly wild look.

I have several mini daylilies. I have had them for so many years that I can't remember their names. Your collection is very pretty. One of the yellow ones looks very familiar. Happy GBBD.

I guess I must be a sizist, but I normally prefer the larger blooming daylilies, until I saw the color on that aptly named 'Little Grapette'. Happy GBBD!
