I would worry too, like you, that it would suffer somewhat for a year or so after moving it, but that's nothing I can confirm personally (and you can!). <BR/><BR/>MMD, sorry to hear you held off on KK! Actually it likes very well drained soil, even poorish (the bed where I have mine and the Blue River is very quick draining and very dry), and once established, it's impervious to the heat and dry, in fact it thrives there! Scoot on back to that nursery and join the club!

Ohh, that's too bad about your not getting the hibiscus. Are you Sure there's not a way to work it out??? ;-) <BR/>Always glad when you visit!Shady Gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05007816271406393818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7265980198981273900.post-5677718066462295692008-07-07T13:50:00.000-05:002008-07-07T13:50:00.000-05:00I love that presumed 'Stella Supreme"! That is su...I love that presumed 'Stella Supreme"! That is such a perfect shade of lemon, I bet it just glows. IVG's waxing lyrically about that Hibiscus nearly tempted me to buy 1 this morning, but then reality firmly gripped me. It would dwindle to nothing in my very well drained soil.

I did it once, and it never was quite the same... (Let me know how it goes, Gail!) My KK would like it better in a sunnier spot, I'm sure. <BR/><BR/>I absolutely love daylilies. There is such a great variety!! I'm drooling over a few photos, right now! ha.<BR/><BR/>Gail, I'm going to post a few more photos of daylilies from time to time. I don't have an overabundance, due to my setting, but I think I could handle about three more! ;-)Shady Gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05007816271406393818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7265980198981273900.post-74328669552193424172008-07-07T07:04:00.000-05:002008-07-07T07:04:00.000-05:00Hi Shady,Another Kopper King fan is stopping by to...Hi Shady,<BR/><BR/>Another Kopper King fan is stopping by to say hello! I do love your daylilies but the gold unnamed one is one of my favorites. I have always liked the simple spider types with their often curling petals and simple<BR/>look.<BR/><BR/>My KK is not blooming and is tlling me to move him to the sun! So this fall we pack him up for the big move!<BR/><BR/>GailGailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16194325535496408116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7265980198981273900.post-33803285018729450072008-07-07T01:39:00.000-05:002008-07-07T01:39:00.000-05:00Yay Shady! You already have Kopper King!!! That's...Yay Shady! You already have Kopper King!!! That's almost my very favorite perennial hibiscus, along with "Blue River" and "Lord Baltimore." Kudos to you, and I bet you just love it as we do! I won't pester you about planting this one, hehe.<BR/><BR/>You have some lovely day lilies too, though we're pretty uninterested in those at this point, because all we have are the weedy orange "privet lilies," thoug we've found a few that interest us, but we don't have them.<BR/><BR/>YAY again on Kopper King! That's truly THE superb hibiscus to have!Iowa Victory Gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07220818462081082930noreply@blogger.com
