I saved them for today because of the equidistant nature of the date. These photos were taken 6 months ago today. 6 months from now, these same plants will look just like this again. If you want to see what it looks like today where I took these, I direct you to my photo a day blog <a href=\"http:\/\/dlynzmobile.blogspot.com\/\">here<\/a> and the post for January 29th.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t always, but this time I have a distinct memory of taking these exact photos. It was a sublime summer day and spent hours working out there, weeding and deadheading and taking pictures. This daylily is called &#8220;Divertisment&#8221; and I got it two days before Anna was born when Ellyn and I visited a daylily farm near where they lived at the time in Virginia. They had <a href=\"http:\/\/dlynz.com\/?p=166\" target=\"_blank\">goats <\/a>there too.<a href=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3404\/3239008734_200a58647b_o.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 525px; cursor: hand; text-align: center;\" src=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3404\/3239008734_200a58647b_o.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>This is one of my favorite garden workhorse plants &#8211; a coneflower called &#8220;Magnus&#8221;. Utterly undemanding with the exception of preferring to be in the sun, it compliments just about everything else in the garden. I got this plant on a yearly expedition with my friends Judy and Karen a couple years ago &#8211; we always have a blast.<a href=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3079\/3238168587_845678a17e_o.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 525px; cursor: hand; height: 349px; text-align: center;\" src=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3079\/3238168587_845678a17e_o.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>And finally, another daylily, this one called &#8220;Mary&#8217;s Gold&#8221;. I got this one in Virginia too and I can&#8217;t recommend it highly enough &#8211; it is flawless.<a href=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3122\/3238168673_6d68868f7d_o.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 525px; cursor: hand; text-align: center;\" src=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3122\/3238168673_6d68868f7d_o.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>Okay &#8211; time for another pot of coffee and getting to work.
