Nameless, But Not Faceless
For somebody who fancies himself to be pretty well organized, I have an embarassingly large number of plants in my garden, which have no labels; especially, for some reason, daylilies. Some of them were presents that came with no name, some were un-named bonus plants, sent with mailorder purchases... the rest I'm not completely sure about... they're just here. It is true that the last time we moved, it was very abruptly (we weren't fleeing the cops or anything), and it was in October, and at the last moment we found out the new owner of our last house had no interest at all in flowers, so tons of things were dug up and thrown in bushel baskets to be brought to our present house. Keeping labels on everything was a luxury that time wouldn't permit. So, I often can't tell you what this or that is named in our garden... for example, these are all nameless daylilies, but have sweet faces anyway.
