Both of the plants below opened their first flowers today. They were labeled by the rather fanciful names of 'Wild Horses' and 'My Reggae Tiger'.
Cyprus Branch Head. Gardens in a field 40 m above sea level with reasonably fertile clay soil.

Amazing names for amazing flowers, John J.
I have only just seen your photos. Great blooms.
Here is my smaller Hemerocallis Green Flutter, in it's first year.
