This compact but vigorous daylily has cute little light apricot blooms with a purple eye zone and a yellow-green throat. It is a small dormant diploid that grows to 18” with 3.5” blooms. Look closely to see the diamond dust on this early/mid-season bloomer. “Dream Baby” would make a nice shower gift…delicate and diminutive.

Doodlebug is a really cute miniature daylily that is only 18 inches tall but is covered with 2.25 inch lemon yellow flowers with a dark purple eye-zone and a green throat. It is an early, mid-season, Dormant, Diploid. I love the contrast when placing her in front of a large spider of a different color.

This cute mini would be perfect for a shower gift. It works great at the front of the border being only 15” and lots of 2 1/2 “blooms just keep coming. A dormant diploid starts early and continues into the mid-season. The little flowers are pale pink with a rose eye-zone and a gold throat.

This is a seedling of Vesuvian. It is not a registered name.
A robust plant with large 6″ perfectly shaped red flowers with heavy substance. The plant is long blooming and also one of the latest blooming in my garden. Fat fans produce sturdy, well branched scapes that are about 24″ tall.
Bud set is heavy and they always open without problems even in cold weather.
This show stopper is fire engine red with a chartreuse throat. A winner! Wish I knew who the pollen parent was.

Rusty orange with a gold throat. This one can vary on the same plant. Some are solid orange and some are slightly bicolored with gold hues on the lower petals.
This little beauty came in a group of seedlings that were billed as “Sisters of Stella”. It is not a registered variety. This daylily was a selection from the breeding program for the famous Stella De Oro, which was not registered. This is a beautiful little mini that would be at home in any collection. It has many of the same attributes as its sister “Stella”. It is a non-stop bloomer, increases rapidly and is 100% reliable.
Early midseason, extended bloom, re-bloomer
dormant, diploid

The beauty of Sandra Elizabeth is that it is very late…a daylily blooming when all of the others are done. It is yellow but is fairly ruffled. Her 6” flowers are held atop 28” scapes. She is a dormant tetraploid and so really hardy and the flowers open even when it is cold.
SORRY, WE NO LONGER HAVE THIS PLANT.

This heirloom daylily is a late blooming dormant diploid. It is brick red with a gold throat that extends out, star-like, onto the mid-ribs. Give this fast grower some space or it will grow into the one you planted next to it. Though not a true spider the 4 inch flowers do have a spidery form with thin petals. The plant stands about 2 ½ feet tall.
