Favorite pictures from last season.

The summer of 2024 became a battle to try and keep the deer away long enough so I could see my seedlings bloom.  There was a short stretch in the early season where one deer managed to sneak in along my neighbor's deck and snack on some daylilies for a couple nights.  Fortunately I was able to block that gap with some deer netting and the only daylilies that got eaten were some oldies.  Most everything important did bloom and I was lucky to get some nice photos as you can see.  Enjoy the picture show!

It was a fun season and each season is never without it's challenges.  Well, this past January was one of coldest we've had for some time.  I'm happy we are getting closer to the 2025 season.  I've made a couple nice additions in terms of daylilies that I've bought for this spring.  Can't wait to see them bloom here.  If I can keep the damn deer away.  Not sure what I will post next, but stay tuned.
