Seems like we are "sparking" right along in making our list
fruitful and interesting.  Keep it up EVERYBODY.

    When I bought my Japanese Iris in Sacramento at Capitol gardens I also bought two new Daylillies that caught my eye..  One was called PURPLE RAIN.I am assuming that LISA meant that she had Salvia called Purple Rain.
    RE the daylily PURPLE RAIN The tag describes it as a decidous perennial, bears bright grape purple flowers to 3" with a large black eye.  Grows to 15" tall. Sun, regular to little watering.  Nice container plant.
    The second called COMING UP ROSES. I have put the tag away terporally so will TRY and dEscribe it myself.
  It is a deep rosy pink with a large yellow center (Is this called the eye) It is really about one-third of the flower, much larger that the eye in PURPLE RAIN. It is very ruffled around the edges.  They are still in bloom in the gallon can that it came in. I might say that these two are my favorites right now since they or a little more out of the ordinary than my others.
I still would like to continue my search for a lavender & pink or other pale pastel colors.
