Jerry's Daylilies

This is just one of the gorgeous daylilies that are blooming right now in the yard. Steve's sweet daddy, Jerry, had a daylily farm in Mississippi. Every visit he would arrive with a new plant or two for our very bare yard. We lost Jerry about 51/2 years ago and he is so very missed. Each time I look at these plants, I am reminded of him. He was eccentric and stubborn and so very special.
