Daylily Forty Second Street
Forty Second Street is a 5” double that will not be mistaken for anything else in your garden. The peachy cream blooms are shaped a little different each time, but always wonderfully ruffled and the contrast with the large rose eye zone and gold throat is beautiful. The plant reaches about 24” and is a mid-season re-bloomer that usually re-blooms in the late season. Though it is an evergreen diploid it has done well in our Wisconsin gardens.

Daylily Catherine Neal
A perfectly formed round flower with a ruffled edge is stunning in deep plum purple. It is a mid to late season bloomer that is a dormant diploid. At 30” with a 6” flower this plant starts late but them blooms into the night and the lime green throat blending to white before hitting the darkness really makes it stand out in the dark.

Daylily Firestorm
This really spidery, unusual form variety is huge at 8” and fairly tall at 31”.
A fabulous orange influenced brick red that has an attention grabbing bright yellow eye that spreads in to the halo zone so that the entire center (about 4” is that color). The Petals sometimes spread out wide as in this picture curling back a bit but other blooms are twisted and pinched in interesting ways. An early mid-season re-bloomer this dormant diploid can also have a crispate edge.

Daylily Fires of Fuji
This 30” tall mid-season re-bloomer has 4 1/2” brilliant orange/red blooms. They are round with a bright yellow throat. Most of the time, but not always they are double, with some having lots of layers, and some a “tuft” of petals in the middle. This semi-evergreen tetraploid sometimes also gets a tiny bit of gold on the edges of the petals making it look like a mini campfire.

Daylily Circus Wheel
An oldie, but a goodie; Circus Wheel will really pop in the back of your border. The scapes are tall at 34” and the 6” flowers are bright red with a large gold throat and a darker halo. This dormant diploid blooms mid-season but extends into the later season as well.

A 30” dormant diploid; this lovely lady has 5” violet/lavender flowers. The throat is lime green blending to golden yellow and there is a little rose halo and cream colored mid-ribs. The lower petals are also washed with cream. A mid-season dormant diploid; she can be hard to find. I got her 20 years ago when my daughter Holly was a baby and research is not finding her anywhere on the market these days.
By Kraus – 1949
This historic daylily can be difficult to find. It is an early-mid season blooming dormant diploid that grows to 30, inches with a 5 inch flower that has narrow petals. The petals are a gorgeous blended peachy-pink color with a rosy eye zone that is more blended, and not clearly defined and a gold throat. It was developed mid-century by University of Chicago botany professor Ezra Kraus. It is a vigorous plant with a heavy bud set.
By Aden – 1981
This is another of our miniature daylilies growing to only 12 inches with cute little blooms only 2.75 inches wide. It may be small, but it’s covered with blooms. It’s a mid-season, dormant, diploid that is cranberry red with green throat; nice for the front of your border.
