Serene Sunset Garden Tour End of July LILIES star of the show! Daylilies, Stargazer, Oriental Lilies

[@GrowingonVancouverIsland]

Your day lillies are absolutely stunning! If it was my garden I wouldn't remove them. Maybe rearrange the garden so that less attractive foliage is more hidden

[@quykhucvlog]

Wow your video is so good and nice like to watch your video so much, thanks for sharing Have a nice day

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi there!! thank you so much for watching! The dishes on your channel look so colorful and delicious! Great work!!

[@bronwynodonnell8548]

The lillies are just gorgeous, I grow mine in bigger pots and hide the leaves with other foliage plants when they finish. Also I just will put the pots away in a spot where you can’t see them. Cheers 🇦🇺Bronwyn

[@HookedandRooted]

Great option! Thanks

they look so beautiful colors are so vibrant they almost look 3D.

I’m usually not a huge fan of day lilies but after seeing those blooms I want all of them! Beautiful garden!

Thank you so much!

[@terirachelsims8928]

All of your lilies are beautifiul, and I can only imagine the wonderful scent of the Stargazers!

[@aprilm9551]

Very lovely flowers, thank you so much. It's also great to see the plant combintations. By the way, the stokes aster is called Peachie's Pick... named after Peachie Saxton who discovered it growing in her Mississippi garden. That's to help anyone who might like to get this plant. It's one I grow and love. And I just may need to get that kniphofia Lady Luck ... it's actually rated to grow in my zone 5b garden, and I love the yellow and slight lime green it has. Thanks for showing it and naming it too!

[@HookedandRooted]

Thank you!! and your welcome! Lady luck kniphofia is so pretty 😍

Those stargazer lilies are absolutely florescent in their colour! And the stokes aster is gorgeous...I've added it to my ever expanding list 🙂

[@lisamcnutt5799]

I believe the name you are looking for is fuzzy peaches daylily. I love your videos and your colors you use! Very new to your channel, trying to catch up for your start of the 2023 growing season! I find you very informative and inspiring!

Hi Lisa, Thank you so much, and thank you for your kind words. I'm looking forward to the new season, and glad to have you along! Happy gardening! 🌱

So nice

[@bvintage316]

Bunnies love my stokes aster, every time it looks beautiful they strip it. Same with my asiatic lilies, they are just green twigs after they’re done with them. Glad to see they haven’t gotten to yours! Beautiful tour, thank you

[@SnappyR]

Beautiful!! Thanks for sharing 🙂

[@KP-gw5zv]

Good morning. Thank you for the stunning and gorgeous tour of your lilies. Yes I have to agree with you if I had to decide which ones I would need to remove from the garden. They have their beautiful looks in their own way. It would for me have to be what color am I going for in my garden then take it from there. Then the ones that I remove then maybe transplant to another garden. Anyways enjoy and have a great evening.

Your garden is so beautiful Steph! Your daylilies are gorgeous! I had no idea there were so many different varieties! 😁

[@HookedandRooted]

Thank you so much! 💚

[@ivanmiller815]

Hey I am I daylily lover too , probably have close to 30 different varieties. And I know what you mean about them looking ratty after blooms are done. I usually cut them back meaning the foliage soon after and the plant grows out fresh again. I have a source w a lady in the Miflin Oh area that has hundreds of them . Thanks for sharing!

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi there! Thank you! I'm planning on cutting back the foliage soon.

[@lorrainecourtney4589]

Yeah, the one day bloom and ratty foliage really stinks 😣😁 Thanks for sharing 😊

[@HookedandRooted]

My biggest gripe with daylilies 😩 thanks for watching! 🌱

[@junesmart7352]

LOVE your gardens! Thank you for sharing them with us. At Minute 1:00, what is the shrub next to the bloom? My neighbor gave me a little shrub that looks like this but she didn't know the name of it. Maybe you can help identify it, since it looks like your

[@franklinstephen3268]

Hello 👋 how are you doing?

[@alcg3981]

June, Maybe a Polemonium? (Jacob's Ladder). I'm only guessing by the leaf form..😸 I don't have one.

[@junesmart7352]

@@alcg3981 Thanks! Will look into that possibility. This is helpful

[@jasminelouisefarrall]

Absolutely stunning Steph 💕 I have written a few down, I have decided to put my daylily’s between my Heuchera’s so they hide the Lily’s foliage 😀 I love the smell of stargazer it fills my home with that wonderful scent 💕 I think the daylily which was given to you could be called ‘Cool Jazz’ but I’m not 💯 sure 😊 beautiful video Steph xx

[@HookedandRooted]

Great idea Jasmine!! Always wise to hide unsightly foliage with with other plants. I did that with my spring allium bulbs.

[@celestegranell8766]

Someone in my neighborhood just let me dig up a whole bunch of daylilies, but now I’m starting to change my mind about burying them. She’s trying to get rid of them, and I can see myself thinking the same thing because the foliage does not look good. I don’t know what to do!

[@pamd1861]

Definitely at the peak Steph they look beautiful!! So this season I bought 2 bags of salmon star bulbs from Lowes and planted next to my carding mill rose. well 3 came up as stargazers and the rest were in bud and eaten by bunnies so I did not get to enjoy the combination I had planned. Bummed...I think I will order more but from longfield and hope I get the right thing😊

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Pam! Oh thats always a bummer when you expect blos to be one color or a variety and they turn up something else. I've had that happen also. The carding mill is a beautiful rose! Mine doesn't thrive but when I get 1 or 2 blooms I'm always in awe of their beauty.

[@janebentrott5984]

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing! Do you have a favorite place to purchase your spring and summer blooming bulbs?

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Jane! Thank you so much!! I got many of my lily bulbs from longfield gardens. As for iris, I love schreiners iris. And for daffodils and tulips, I love Dutchgrown.com they provide really large and healthy bulbs.

[@botanicaltreasures2408]

Here in SC, I thought the daylilies were through but I just had three different plants: a dwarf red daylily on my patio, an orange daylily, and a purple daylily get new buds after I had removed the withered scapes and dead foliage. I didn’t think these were rebloomers, but I’m not complaining.😄

[@user-ni8nx7sy2k]

All of them are gorgeous!!! The blue globe thistles at the far back look absolutely beautiful, too. Thank you for sharing! This year some animals ate half of my oriental lilies and tiger lilies. They even ate some of the wild orange daylilies…How to keep the lilies from becoming those animals’ dinner?

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi there! Thank you so much! I grew those blue Glow Globe Thistle from seed last year. This is its first year blooming 💙 I actually spray the lilies with invisible fence deer and rabbit weekly. If it rains (which unfortunately it's been really dry), I would have to spray more often. Hope this helps for next year.

[@user-ni8nx7sy2k]

@@HookedandRooted Thank you so much for your reply. I’ll definitely give it a try next year. The spray will be on my sales tax-free weekend shopping list.^^

[@michellehull]

Hi Steph the peach Daylily could be Bali Hai? It all looks great.

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Michelle! Thank you so much!

[@jennifershray4962]

I too have a love/hate relationship with my daylilies. As they taper off on flowering they look awful. After I clean them up couple of times and they seem to settle down and push new growth.

[@adelinascaffa7871]

So pretty! Would you recommend the solar fountain towards the end of the video? Can you link it ?

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Adelina! I have really enjoyed my solar fountain. I've had mine going on 4 years and its held up fine. I don't have power in that area, so my only option was a solar fountain. It works best when its been able to be charged by the sun. I placed mine on a pavestone that was about 12x12 that I sunk into the mulch to give it a little more height, and also to stablize it. As for the one I have, I did buy it on Amazon but couldn't find the exact one. I found this one which is similar, with a solar panel on the floor that you can position to face the sun. Hope this helps. amzn.to/3HibedU

[@serenababy6358]

You're daylilies are the prettiest pink. I have yellow ones in the front flower bed (boring). I'd love to yank them out and give them away but they thrive the best compared to other plants. I'm torn.

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Serena! thank you. There are some really pretty ones out there. They yellow stella d'oro variety are work horses! Maybe if you combine them with things like nepeta, or even russian sage you might like them better? yellow and purple look beautiful together. You would just need to find a purple spikey plant that blooms along side them. Just a thought! Thanks for watching!

[@laurelsayer7557]

Oh and I forgot to ask about your lovely creamy green Knifofias. How long do they stay in flower and do you find they die 'well' or go really manky (in my smallish garden everything has to earn its keep).

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Laura! They start to look spent, but never burnt ot crusty looking. They just sort of look less fresh and a bit mushy if that makes sense. However, the foliage stays nice (unlike daylilies), and looks like some ornamental grass in your bed. So even when not in bloom, it can offer an element of texture. Hope this helps.

[@laurelsayer7557]

I've just bought a couple of families but was also concerned about how unsightly the foliage might become. Have you noticed a difference between the tetraploid and diploid varieties (I gather the former tend to have thicker strappier leaves?). Also what is your opinion on the aesthetics and ease of care of the evergreen versus deciduous varieties. BTW I am in South East England in the USA equivalent of Zone 8b though usually our summers are less hot. I say usually because we had 40C (104F) two weeks ago and it's meant to be 35C (95F) tomorrow.

[@laurelsayer7557]

PS. This is about Hemerocallis aka daylilies. Predictive text!

[@ytubechannel997]

I think you gave the wrong name for your stokes aster. It should be called Peachie's Pick (I have the same variety). Peachy Keen is a variety of verbena. I am surprised more people do not grow this stokes aster. It is one of my favorites with good vigor and a wonderful shade of purple. Thanks so much for showing us your beautiful lilies.

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi there! Your absolutely correct! Thanks for catching that. It's a gorgeous aster. It's new to me. Only bought it last year. But I love that it starts blooming now at mid summer and went through fall. Thanks for watching 🌱

[@ytubechannel997]

@@HookedandRooted Excellent point regarding its bloom time. It blooms when so many of the perennials have finished, yet the late summer perennials have not yet started to show color.

[@lainyjane4581]

@@HookedandRooted i got one this year. do you deadhead it often? mine has stopped blooming. any suggestions?

[@mariemcgrath8681]

Don't know how you can eliminate just gorgeous Lillies. Just move them somewhere else ?

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi there, I dont have another spot for them. So what I'll do is edit them down to my favorites and then pass along my other plants for other gardeners to enjoy.
