Best Article About Cultivars “It’s September… what’s blooming in your garden?” by Melodye Campbell – Winter 2016 Online

If you’re trying to stretch your daylily season into late summer and September, this featured PDF is a great read. After a record-hot 2016 season (with bloom time pushed earlier), Campbell notes she still had 27 daylilies blooming on September 5 in Rochester, New York.

She points to late bloomers, especially several from Bob Sobek, as the backbone of her late garden, and also calls out mid-to-late season performers from Curt Hanson that carried plenty of buds into September.

The article is packed with real examples and quick notes (timing, color, bud-building, and more), including a standout late bloomer from Judy Davisson noted for very large blooms on a tall plant.
