Daylily "Hemerocallis 2013 S W S

Here is my Number 1 favourite seedling of last year - Amethyst Reflections x Unk:

With 3 flowers on 2 scapes, it makes quite a show.
On the new ones, this opened today:

This is Country Pride x Small Gesture. It is only 3.5" across, but the bud count is 30! It is a bit of a disappointment since both parents are doubles. Maybe it will rebloom with double flowers and get become a keeper.

 

Do the flowers look like this mum? kwanso..

 

Hmm, sort of ... I think I'll have to wait for them to bloom so I can take a pic

 

I had one of my new named ones open today - "Core Values". I got it for the eye pattern.

It's by Hansen, 2011; TET

 

That is a fabulous eye Wylie

 

It opened today??? Totally GORGE - E - US!!!!!

 

May I just ask?

Any recommendations on any evergreen ones?

 

Did you know you can eat daylily flowers? They look fabulous in a salad and what's more, are good for you.
They contain lutein/zeaxanthin which can help or prevent macular degeneration and may help prevent blindness and malnutrition, see www.cookforgood.com/blog/2012/6/18/eating-daylilies.html
(Sorry, I'm an eater, never been one for the looks!)

 

My top 3 would be Free Wheelin" ( a 9" spider), Inner View, and Spacecoast Sea Shells (I've already had flowers on the last 2).
For a diploid type, Moose Man.

 

Simbad guess who is not on the garden party guest list when our daylily's are in flower

ps Moose man is a must have but dont know a supplier in the UK

Was just going to say Freewheelin Wylie and Inner View is one of my all time favourites
I know you can eat them Annemeike but must admit I've never tried them, can't bring myself to pick them although that is my excuse for growing them on the allotment

 

That made me laugh Spruce.
Sheila at theflowerbower has Moose Man.

 

If you get any ugly seedlings, you can always invite Annemeike around for brunch

 

Today, Sybil's Blues x Water Drops opened:

Not only are the petals curled, but they show signs of gaposis - a term I hadn't heard used in describing daylilies until I saw it used by Dan Hansen for one of his. But it means that the petals don't touch (at least when used for daylilies).

 

yes at £28.00 fancy letting me know how to get my hands on it I will start saving

Well Simbad imagine catching someone in the garden eating the flowers

Waltz with the wind x Rosemary Whitacre
