Thanks Shannon. That flower is an eye and edged bloom with a clean yellow
base, so it does have some potential to move it forward. I have crossed the
pollen with something, just can't remember what or if it took. Haven't made a
pod list yet.

ohmygosh ... Touch of Royalty x Victorian Lace has such a sweet interplay of the two colors; just vibrant while still being subtle and teasing the eye back and forth between edge and eye - a really amazing interplay that delights the eyes. Superb! i also love the deepness of color in Tropical Trade Winds x Storm of the Century ... of course, i'm drawn to purples ... but in your field of beauties, those two would draw me right over! Hurray!

Betty, thanks so much for the nice comment.

Michele, I took a moment to look at the lily auction. Your seedlings are beautiful.
I apologize to all of you that I am so pressed for time. After I get this years'
photos posted, I am going to go through every daylily thread, and enjoy them
to the fullest. Things should be winding down here with the daylilies and
house construction in a couple of weeks.

Yes, Cindy, I like Blue Hippo too, and you are very welcome.

Tina, oh my goodness, how poetic you are. A delight to read. Thank you.

Thank you so much Debra. I don't have many bold colors, and Wish x Tropical
Hot Flash was an effort to get some, also the purples.

I have a couple of seedlings that I just call "odd". Not much for
looks, but I thought you might enjoy the oddness. More experiments.
