@Char
Is that 'White Teeth', or is there also a 'White Tooth'?
Held for increase:
https://earthlytreasures.plant...
I am guessing that is the reason it is hard to find, is it slow to increase?

Larry, there's a White Tooth. Thank you for finding Murder Mystery even if it's being held for increase. It's a newer one, 2021 introduction, so could be a year or two before anyone has it available.

White Tooth has been around for over ten years. Very slow increase indeed. That's never a good sign in my book. I got everything that I wanted this fall. Let's see what temptation come my way over the winter going into 2023.

Absolutely Stellar, Alpine Ruffles, Apple Mountain, Early Snow, Snow on the Mountain, Sunday Gloves

Found Early Snow at David's Daylilies, part of Dragonfly Farm. Decided not to buy Boundless Beauty; haven't located Charleston Snow and may eliminate that one from the list as well.

From David's Daylilies, I also purchased Full Moon Rising, Asheville White Winged Dove (very excited about this one), Spacecoast Tigertail Tango, Quietly Awesome, Lenox, Gentle Shepherd, Snow Crystal, Bob White, and Spacecoast Dark Obsession. Some nice off-white/whites in this group and looking forward to them in the garden.

From Smokey's Gardens I ordered Blueberry Cobbler, Get Jiggy, Catherine Woodbery, Embossed Treasure, Fancy Illusion, How High The Moon, Joan Senior, Passion In Paris, and Spacecoast Southern Belle, all to be shipped in Spring.

I'm on a wait list for Pumpkin Britches from M P Flower Gardens in Spring and also for Apple Blossom White and Tidewater Snowflake from Sterrett.

Updated 11/13/22: LOL, the ONLY DL on my Want list that I've actually purchased is Early Snow.

I'm on a waiting list for two: Attic Antique at Keast Daylilies and English Lavender at Sterrett Gardens. I will probably add a few to each order if these are available in spring. I am thinking about Rich and Rickie's Sunbeam for one. I am sure I can come up with a few more. Whistling

Thank you *muchly*, Char, for starting this.

The only plant on my list so far is Mrs. John Cooper. But I consider it highly desirable, as I have evil and nefarious plans for it. 🧬

Actually they're not that evil or nefarious, but it makes cross pollination sound a lot more fun.

I will be planting a couple hours further north in WI next spring/ summer. Definitely looking for dormants. Been peeking onto the auction but haven't bid or purchased anything…yet 😳 Would like to get some Gossards, but the ones I want ( and have been drooling over for years) are always sold out. I have time… ~ jan

Except I'd have to say "A bit less rain at times, definitely fewer weeds in the beds"... I agree on the sunsets.

I'd love to track down 'Carla Jean' for '23. I'm not optimistic but I'll keep looking for it.

I wonder how many daylilies become extinct after registration.

I have had a few that you might like: Siloam June Bug, Siloam Ury Winniford, Little Grapette, Little Audrey, Spacecoast Tiny Perfection, Little Nugget, Little Business. These have all been around for a long time and are inexpensive and easily available.

In the main daylily forum, I bumped an older thread with a lot of information, pictures, and some great links.
