Family ties is a rich dark red to Burgundy; it depends on the light. It has a gold/green throat rimmed in white that seems to glow sometimes. I love the name and keep it in the bed with plants that have the family names. It’s a dormant diploid that is 18 inches tall with a 5 inch bloom.

I think this is my favorite late blooming daylily. It’s a rich red velvet with a thin white edge that is sometimes not seen over a yellow to green throat. It is a sturdy dormant, tetraploid that is 36 inches tall with a 6 inch bloom and 15 buds on 3 branches. The parentage is not known. This plant will be a double fan.

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 violet daylily has a very interesting rose colored eye that has streaks extending outward. The green throat has a white band surrounding it that also has the streaks going through it. There is also a white picotee edge with a slight ruffle. She is 28 inches tall with a 6 inch bloom. This daylily is an evergreen, tetraploid that blooms mid-season. No trouble with hardiness, but she does not grow fast in the north due to being evergreen.

Unregistered Seedling – By Matel – 2015
This was one of the first crosses I did. I was working on a miniature dark daylily. In bright light he is rich red and at twilight or in the shade he looks dark purple. The color fades to a darker shade near the slightly ruffled edge and near the eye zone. There are some white accents and sometimes a very thin white edge and mid rib. The throat is gold turning green. The plant is 18 inches tall and the flowers are 3 inches on this dormant diploid.

A rich velvety red 3.5 inch flower is held atop a 30 inch scape. There is a diamond dusted sheen that has an almost purple hew that grows deeper towards the gold/green throat. This plant is a dormant, diploid that is a very good grower and blooms mid-season but then re-blooms until frost.

Look closely at this one to see it’s real beauty. It is an oldie but a goodie. At first it appears to be a bright fire engine red, 6.5 inch bloom with a gold throat but in the right light and when you get closer you will see the magenta veins and halo. This 30 inch dormant, diploid blooms mid-season and into the late season.
