© 2010 FarmgirlFare.com, the often a little behind foodie farm blog where this time it's a few days late with the daylily photos. This was actually one of our first blooms in the front yard back on June 22nd, and sometime during the recent surreal time warp, the last of these fabulous but fleeting flowers came and went. It was a really good year for them, though, especially since I convinced Joe not to mow a large mysterious patch of the front 'lawn,' back in spring, and the unidentified large leaves I was sure must be something good, all turned out to be daylilies!

  4. This year was a good one for daylilies in my neck of the woods as well. The marauders from the woods...I mean the deer....left them alone until the very end.

  5. I have a lot of that particular daylily. We dug them up on the road ditch one day coming back from fishing.

    LOL....shovel is always a standard fishing must have when we go off.

  6. Did you know daylilies sell for four bucks a pint in NYC? Craziness. For eating, I mean. Apparently, they're good for stir fry. I'll have to try it next year, because God knows we have no shortage of daylilies.

    I think our daylillies may be done for the year, but they were abundant and gorgeous.

December 2015 update: Hi! For some reason I can't figure out, Blogger hasn't been letting me leave comments on my own blog (!) for the last several months, so I've been unable to respond to your comments and questions. My apologies for any inconvenience! You're always welcome to email me: farmgirlfare AT gmail DOT com.

Hi! Thanks for visiting Farmgirl Fare and taking the time to write. While I'm not always able to reply to every comment, I receive and enjoy reading them all.

Your feedback is greatly appreciated, and I especially love hearing about your experiences with my recipes. Comments on older posts are always welcome!

Please note that I moderate comments, so if I'm away from the computer it may be a while before yours appears.

I try my best to answer all questions, though sometimes it takes me a few days. And sometimes, I'm sorry to say, they fall through the cracks, and for that I sincerely apologize.
