I wanted to do something with the back, and daylilies are a hardy, drought resistant plant. We've only had 4 mm rain this month. I've paler ones out front.
JB brought some garden soil, which I tucked in and around the transplants. I was careful to avoid the spent daffodils.
My lilies are doing so well. I am pleased with my netting. Thing is, Clover deer must have gone over the rainbow bridge, as she was the one who munched them in the past. She hasn't touched the hostas, either.

My lonely hibiscus was droopy, and I had to water it. Even the rose stem was drooping. Afterwards, it perked right up. We had 3 mm rain in the evening, which is most welcome.

Positively flourishing! YAM xx
That first daylily looks much like the ones that we have.
Somehow we're also rainless, and pretty darn hot during the afternoons. Not complaining, but the basil and mint in pots just looked so shriveled up. Nice to see Clover's old pics...maybe you won't have to ward off the next generation of deer from your garden.
Beautiful Jenn Aloha
Gorgeous. I am so familiar with hanging out for rain.
Your lilies are lovely.
So far the petunias are the only thing the deer have munched on here.
I like your new blog header, Jenn. I also like those amazing day lilies, too. They are beautiful. Poor Clover.
Clover was a beauty.
