Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Stenciled Infusion')

I have only had Stenciled Infusion for 1 yr. Bought as a single fan. It flowered the first year and I collected all of the pollen as I wasn't sure if it would take our zone 5 winter. It did and is now 4 fans. Very pleased with it. The first flower was yellow in color (still a pretty bloom) and I wondered if I had the right one but the second flower was true to photo's I had seen.

I've had Stenciled Infusion since it was introduced. I absolutely adore it. It's been hardy here with no issues at all. It blooms reliably but a little less than the registered stats - a common theme among southern plants when they move to northern Indiana. It's pod and pollen fertile though the pollen is often a very pale yellow.

It sounds like one for me to try, with positive reviews from both James and Ina!

Until this year, James comment was perfect for me as well. Every year I'll buy a couple plants that I don't think will grow like the pictures here, just to see if I'm right. But this one has some rediculous blooms for me, and I've enjoyed it for three years. This year, though, foliage growth was kind of weak and it didn't send me any scapes. I'm hoping for a recovery next year, because it is quite the looker.

I have had it since the year of introduction. The picture posted at the top of the post, which was posted by me was the hybridizers' photo. I have used it successfully to set pods on but mostly used the pollen. It is one of my all time favorites here. It got down to 15 degrees this past winter about three times, but still performed as usual. First picture is from this year.

I've had this one for about a year or possible more, its still trying to figure things out and find its happy place in my garden. Perhaps next year it'll start to show up as the performer everyone says it is. It is a beauty and I couldn't ever think of not having it.

I received Stenciled Infusion as a bonus plant from Breeze on the Lily Auction last year. It bloomed and it was beautiful. It did not increase from the original 3 fans and did not bloom this spring. I received it again this year as a bonus from Breeze again. I planted with the 3 fans from last year. The latest plant bloomed. I may move to a better spot in the fall as I love the blooms.
