This one is not often seen for sale. I love the color; I’m going to call it “rusty Red” but it has hints of red, orange and gold. It has a fuchsia eye zone over a gold throat and lighter colored midribs. It is a semi-evergreen tetraploid that blooms midseason and is 24 inches tall. The bloom size is listed as 6.5 inches but I think it is more like 5 inches for me.

Many years ago I got a daylily at a garage sale that had a pod. It was my first try at growing out a daylily seedling. The plant is a dormant diploid that is 24 inches with a 4.5 inch flower. The color is light rose with some cream highlights and there is a wide chartreuse eye. Blooms midseason.

Unregistered Seedling – By Grant/Matel 2011
This polychromatic beauty really does look just like the sky before the sun peaks through; peachy pink with gold highlights and a green throat. The edge is more than ruffled, it has tiny golden teeth. A dormant tetraploid she is 24 inches tall with a 5.75 inch bloom. Heavy substance allows her to bloom well into the night where she practically glows in the dark.

This one really is pretty white, with a light ruffle. If anything maybe a hint of green, or perhaps a reflection of the green throat. A mid-season blooming dormant, diploid; it is 28 inches tall. Usually it starts blooming on Father’s Day. It is listed at 6 inches, but is really more like a little over 5 for me; bright clean star shaped flowers.

Unregistered seedling by Krentz-Matel – 2009
These seeds were given to me by a friend to grow out. Seedling #: LKeast#8. This seedling is similar in size and shape to its pod parent Peggy Jeffcoat. At only 18 inches tall the 5 inch flowers sit just above the foliage. Although usually single occasionally it will display as a “loose double” with different flowers exhibiting slightly different forms, sometimes just a “tuft” in the center. The mauve flowers are lightly ruffled and have prominent white mid ribs and there is a wine eye zone and a yellow throat. The sepals are streaked and mottled with yellow. The petals can show some streaking as well A midseason blooming dormant diploid.

This is an unregistered seedling. The plant is interesting as it doubles about half of the time. The flowers are 5 inches and a rosey lavender with a mauve eye and yellow throat. Sometimes the double flower is a full pom pom like it’s parent Big Kiss, sometime a loose fringe and sometimes just a tuft. It’s pretty, with a lightly ruffled edge when not a double as well. When single you really notice the cream mid rib but if you look closely you see it in other forms as well. You will think you have different plants. A dormant diploid, this plant is happy at the front of the border, with a height of 20 inches.

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.
