Sonic Duck is a very tall (39 inch) dormant, tetraploid that has strong scapes to hold up the 8.5 inch, fragrant, pale yellow flowers. An early mid-season rebloomer it is classified as unusual form with blossoms that are crispate and cascading. It has a bright red eye zone and a wide green throat. On the petals the eye zone is wide and cut by the yellow mid rib, but on the sepals it is a fine line giving the flowers an interesting star like appearance. 4 to 5 way branching with 22 to 38 buds means that this one really puts on a show. It is aptly named as the color is exactly that of a baby duck. Another bonus is foliage that always looks nice. This plant assumes a polymerous form more often than other plants (at least for me), meaning that may have extra sepals of petals.

This slightly ruffled red/purple daylily has a large gold throat. It is 24 inches tall with a 4.5 inch bloom. The color is a nice rosy red/purple color with a slightly darker halo and some times gets a little tuft in the middle like it wants to double but I have not seen it fully double. It is a dormant, diploid that blooms mid-season. This poor little one was left in the field when it’s more impressive siblings were moved to the garden. So, I’d say that the most impressive thing about it is it’s resiliency. It has survived and flourished with zero care and surrounded by tall weeds. One tough plant.

This daylily was acquired as a bonus at an auction with the Bad Buds (Bay Area Daylily). It is about 24 inches tall with a 4 inch bloom. It came from the daylily beds at the Green Bay Botanical Gardens obtained in the 1990’s. I kept it all these years because of the color which is a very clear purple with a darker purple eye band and a wide chartreuse eye. I don’t know what the MgPy means or who’s breeding program it came from.

This poor little one was left in the field when it’s more impressive siblings were moved to the garden. So, I’d say that the most impressive thing about it is it’s resiliency. It has survived and flourished with zero care and surrounded by tall weeds. One tough little plant.

This miniature is a very fast grower and a good bloomer. I don’t have good documentation on it but I think the pollen parent may be Desert Princess. The color is unusual, very similar to desert princess. I would call it copper with a burgundy eye over a star shaped green throat. There are cream colored midribs and a slight ruffle. It is just 14” high with a 2.5 inch bloom. It’s a dormant, diploid and it blooms early with a brief rebloom. Will see if the rebloom improves as it ages.

The edges are often pinched and sculpted and it also has a thin purple eye over a star shaped green throat. It is just 12” high with a 2.5 inch bloom. It’s a dormant, diploid and it blooms mid-season.
