The lovely ladies of summer!
By Stamile 1985
This ivory beauty has a green throat and light ruffles. She is a staple in the moon garden. She has an extended bloom period which means blooms last into the evening. A dormant tetraploid; this 23 inch tall plant has 5 1/2 inch blooms. It is list
ed as ivory but really it depends on the light sometimes it looks pale yellow and sometimes pale pink. It really stands out in the dark, with contrasting black anthers.

This gorgeous sturdy plant holds masses (35 buds on 4 branches) of cheery 5 1/2 inch fragrant flowers. They are golden yellow with a red eye above a green throat. The show starts early mid season and continues for the rest of the season. The plant is a 30 inch dormant tetraploid with nice foliage.
This plant has large fans so an order will be two fans rather than my normal three.

This is the one, where visitors to the garden stop and say “Wow, what is that?” The blooms are nine inches with a large bright yellow throat that spreads into a star when fully open. At 32 inches tall this dormant tetraploid is sturdy and holds abundant blooms without bending. Early, midseason rebloomer says it all, as he seems to bloom all summer. It’s no wonder he is a Stout Medal winner and is still winning popularity contests today.
This plant has large fans so an order will be two fans rather than my normal three.

Holly in Pink was one of 3 seeds given to me by a friend. The flower like it’s pod parent Holly Dancer is a spider and a great bloomer. It is peachy pink with a darker fuchsia eye band and a large star shaped golden eye. There are prominent golden mid ribs and large stamens that are the same color as the star. She is about 36” tall and has 6.5 inch blooms. A dormant diploid with sturdy scapes.

A beauty at 30 inches tall which is a dormant diploid and an early midseason Rebloomer. He is a plant that you know is different enough, that you will not mistake him for another.
The 6.5 inch flower is a dusty violet with a bright purple, star shaped eye zone over a green throat. It is ruffled and recurved with prominent mid ribs to complete the star effect. Plus she is fragrant!

This daylily is supposed to be 18 inches but is smaller for me, 15 inches with 4.25 inch blooms. Not a true miniature or dwarf but a smaller daylily that is comfortable joining the party at the front of the border.
A dormant diploid, it has fire engine red blooms with a deeper red eye zone over a green throat. Heavy substance means extended bloom and these cuties are round, recurved and ruffled to boot.
