About

A gardner in Northeast Ohio

I grow daylilies and other perennials in the shadow of Hopkins airport.  Mostly daylilies.  There used to be a vegetable garden here.  Between the weather and the trees the veggies lost out.   Now there are lots of bought daylilies and even more seedlings grown from those daylilies.  And each year a little less urban turf as the turf grudgingly gives up its space.

The garden is mostly organic.  I try to ignore the residue of jet fuel that drifts down.  The rest is compost, cosmic and terrestrial dust, peat, mulch, and organic fertilizer added to the yard.  Turf is intentionally used in lieu of the “G” word.  The turf is usually green and a mix of new and previous invaders held in check by the mower and little else.  The bees, worms, and other fauna have enough of a battle without petro-chemicals and other _cides.   There are honeybees somewhere in the vicinity and they visit periodically.  I suspect they are feral and not of the agricultural worker variety.

Now isn’t that a wild concept.

Regarding awards.  I won’t say never.  However the current rationalization is the purpose of this blog is to share the garden and daylilies in particular.  While I certainly appreciate the compliment at this point awards will be graciously declined.  I will try to focus on the sharing.  enjoy.

      Thanks terry ! Glad you enjoy them. There are lots of daylily gardens in Indiana all over the state. Hope you get a chance to visit one sometime this summer. John

        Daylilies look so much like orchids that I Googled them to see if they were related (or if some daylilies were really just orchid varieties lol). I had an orchid once, got it to bloom too, but it died, likely from too much sunlight, turns out orchids really prefer shade with slight sunlight. Perhaps a daylily would be more suitable!

      2. John Hric Post author

        Orchids are both tough plants and delicate plants. Rebloom at home is not an easy thing. Especially in a house or apartment. Daylilies prefer sun, at least 6 hours per day. And the more sun, generally speaking, the better. Thanks for your comment. And even though I know there are many physical differences between daylilies and orchids I often think on other levels they are very much comparable. Your comment makes me wonder how distant the two plants are in the world of botany. They are both monocots and to my thinking somewhat primitive plants, though that might not be the right way to phrase it.

      Thanks Multifarious. It is a tad better than a concentrated spot. For about a month and a half or two months it is a very big spot of color. From what I am told the fragrance is an iffy thing with the daylilies. Some are supposed to have it but even that can come and go with the weather. I do notice the fragrance when I clean them for trading.

    Take it from me; even the bees that use hives from which we take honey are not tame – in any sense of the word – but wild animals making the most of what humans provide for them.

    Thanks for the visit, John, the day lilies are wonderful. I have some but they struggle a bit in our very dry, sandy garden (yes, even the UK has dry areas). We are under a flight path about thirty miles from an airport, but air not too bad. The veg bed is making a comeback after being eliminated for many years, but I am enjoying it. We also have ‘turf’ – you could supply a botanic department with the variety of plants therein.

    Hilary,
    Your garden sounds neat. Particularly like your turf comment. Mono culture grass – even if it is a blend is an empty place. The more variety the better, and the greener it will stay as one or more plants move into their peak as the seasons change. Thanks for the visit and comments !

    I don’t know about patience – all my garden is teaching me at the moment is how to better use a sweeping brush. Since the mini-storm (gusts of 119 kph) we seem to be in a wind tunnel. It is frustrating more than anything. The wind dries out the soil and what that does not kill off, the birds do. Well, at least the birds are happy :o) Thank you for visiting.

    My husband’s the gardener in our partnership – he has really green fingers and creates lovely gardens wherever we live. On the other hand, I look at plants and they wilt and die even though I love nature. So I’ll stick to photography and art about nature, I think it’s safer for the plant world!

    You are not mistaken. They are resting at this time. Most assuredly resting. Typically bloom can start the beginning of June through the first week of August. And sporadically continue up until October and beyond. Our garden is very close to Lake Erie and some years the lake affect will moderate temperatures so there are a few November and occasionally December blooms. However that did not happen this year, no December blooms ! That being said – do come back tomorrow, there are plenty of pictures to carry us through until next June.

    Hi, thanks for the like on my “March the Trickster” post. I like your comments here and the attitude they reveal, e.g. being as organic as possible; I was also struck by your reference to feral honeybees. That distinction had never occurred to me but of course you’re right. Loving daylillies, perhaps you already know the people at Earthbound (www.earthbound.com), a terrific nursery near the village of Red Bay on the Bruce Peninsula, which juts northward into Lake Huron, dividing the main body of the lake from Georgian Bay to the east. Some wonderful gardeners up there…

      I hope there are some feral bees here. Not sure. I keep hearing about folks not too too far away that have hives in the city. So I just might be wrong on the feral part ! I will have to check out the nursery. I do not believe I am familiar with it.

    Thanks for visiting my blog. I grow a few day lilies, and have a question for a day lily professional as yourself: I have read that day lilies can help hold a bank in. A bank as in a hillside, or bank of dirt. Have you ever heard of that?
    I am slowly transplanting day lilies to a small embankment above a terraced flowerbed. I thought they might hold the hill in and would look so pretty when they flowered. One glitch, so far, the two colors of day lilies planted do not flower at the same time. So, I guess I should look at it as flowers in later spring (yellow) and summer (orange).

    Reply ↓
  91. John Hric Post author

    Susan, I don’t know that daylilies are particularly better than any other plants for holding a bank in place. I have no personal experience with that use. I do see several websites do recommend them for that use. Not knowing how steep the bank I would recommend you consult a landscape professional that can actually look at your garden bank and give you an answer. If in your judgement the bank is not very steep then it sounds like a good idea . Daylily roots go down 8 to 10 inches in the soil. They will help hold the soil in place. However given enough rain and too much slope any soil can and will shift. (search ‘erosion control slope daylily’)

    As for the colors and timing that is pretty much a personal choice. There are quite a few daylily growers in Oregon. And at all price ranges. If nothing else they are fun to visit, especially when they are in bloom. You might find some that round out your yellow and orange. And some that balance your bloom season. Daylilies range from extra early to very late. Stella’s Ruffled Fingers is a short pink one that when it is happy ( a fair amount of water and decent soil nutrients, and 6+ hours of sunshine ) will bloom all season long once it becomes established. At least that is what it does for me. I see at least one grower that sells it in Oregon.

    I hope I have answered your question.

    What a lovely idea to just focus on the lilies near an airport. My home in London is near Heathrow and sometimes has that jet fuel smell. I posted on lilies I saw in some of the back streets of Manchester, a city in the north of the UK. Some people cared enough to plant lovely white lilies but for others there little bit of front garden was where the bins went! An area that is now mainly let and although a poorer part of the city I think it is still the older residents who keep some parts looking good! Glad to see your blog and like the samadhi lily very much. Hope you find peace.

    Don’t know too much about Daylillies, but out of wonder, do you know anything about growing Orchids??? (or anyone for that matter)

    They are special to me, my late mothers favourite flower/plant. We have tried a few but they never seem to take off, and then die.

    Anyone have any ideas? (sorry if this may be off topic btw)

    1. John Hric Post author

      Just little tidbits of orchid knowledge. Many of them are epiphites – they grow in trees. The aerial roots are part of the mechanism they use to collect water. they do take a bit of home work to get the conditions right for the different types of orchids. and when you trim the plants you need to sterilize the scissors between cutting one plant and another. there are plant viruses that can be spread if you do not. otherwise you are better off not trimming them.
      Best thing to do is find out the variety of plant you are caring for and understand the individual requirements of care. It can be done. It is just a different set of rules from daylily care. I hope you are able to sort it out so you can enjoy them. Try searching ‘orchid care’ there are plenty of articles like this one… http://www.finegardening.com/success-orchids-indoors and they will get you started.

    Hi John, thank you for visiting my blog. Your flowers are truly inspirational. My pitiful garden and greenhouse crops are in complete and utter shambles at the moment due to a combination of the harsh Australian sun, some very pesky gnats and the introduction of our now 6 month old golden retriever. Thankfully there is no jet fuel. I will definitely have to get in there and give it another go this year… now if I could just put down my art journal… maybe after I sketch a lily or two!?

        too soon to say. We have about 8 inches on the west side of town. More on the east side. And it is still snowing. Supposed to end tonight or tomorrow morning. Sticky snow – quite a few trees loosing limbs and electricy outages.
