Daylily Seedling Two Cents Worth

Unregistered Seedling By Matel 2024

This daylily is a seedling of Penny’s Worth. It is a very small dormant diploid, much like it’s parent; 12” tall with 2 inch flowers. So, it is a little larger than Pennys Worth at 10” and 1.5” flowers but still much smaller than a Stella, and I think a better bloomer. The flowers are a little lighter yellow. They start early or even extra early and rebloom reliably even in the north. They are often the last thing still blooming here. The foliage is very fine and grassy.

Daylily Seedling Siloam Doodlebug #4

By Matel (not registered)

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.

Daylily Seedling Siloam Doodlebug #2

By Matel (not registered)

This miniature is a really unusual color. I don’t have good documentation on it but I think the pollen parent may be Desert Princess. I would call it dusty lavender. 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.

Daylily Little Anna Rosa

By Williamson – 1984

This little gem is only 14 inches tall and has lots of 2 inch, peachy/pink flowers. She is perfectly formed, ruffled and a very soft, light pink.  The center eye zone is a darker bright pink which streaks onto the petals giving it a star shape. The green throat and prominent mid-rib, which is the same color as the ruffled edge, make it stand out. It is an evergreen, diploid but does well in my WI garden. She is fragrant and heavy substance gives her extended bloom.

Hosta Country Mouse

By Hans Hanson – 2007

Country Mouse is a really cute sport of Bill’s Dress Blue that was developed in Minnesota. It is a miniature hosta that gets no taller than 3 inches. It has a heart shaped blue/green leaf with a white edge. The 15 inch tall scapes of lavender flowers appear in mid-summer and are loved by hummingbirds. Great for rock gardens, containers and woodland paths. It is a good grower and the leaves are on the thick side so they aren’t bothered as much by slugs or sun scald.
