Happy St. Patrick's Day.
Could have sworn someone posted a thread like this but have been searching and came up with nothing. Apologies if I missed it and it was yours.
This is the only one I found on green daylilies from 2012:
The thread "Gorgeous Green Daylilies?!" in Daylilies forum

So, anyone have St Patrick's / Ireland inspired daylilies by name or by color (green or orange)?

Here is a nice one of Green Inferno:


I should add this one because it has both green and orange:

Green in daylilies is a favorite subject! I grow a lot of them. Even though I haven't ordered much for this year, I have three green echinaceas coming, to go with all the green daylilies.

Today we celebrate our daughter's birthday, so as I send these pictures, I think of her, our St. Patrick's Day surprise as she was born two weeks early. She doesn't have an Irish type name, but here is the daylily we named for her which has a beautiful green eye.

Thanks For those pictures of Irish Envy, Larry. I think it's going to do well for me. I think I bought it on the strength of your Daylily of the Day review.

Well, it's late in the evening and I just discovered this thread after we stuffed ourselves with corned beef and cabbage and recovered - so here are my favorite green(ish) daylilies...

I have often admired pictures of Lillian's Ivory Tower. I don't know about its rust resistance, though. Maybe next year I will try it out.

I've got several green ones that haven't bloomed for me yet:

Rhapsody in Green
Spacecoast Ocean Sunrise
Darkly Bright
Fried Green Tomatoes
Green Rainbow

People have already posted pictures of most of these in the thread.

I hope this is the year for all of them. Crossing Fingers!
