Forgot to mention that I got Autumn Minaret, HUWS, Notify Ground Crew and Shuffle The Deck last fall. Adding some of the above to the tall wanted list. Thanks for starting this one Frank.

I have a few tall ones, but not any pictures showing their height
Ethereal Light 44 inches


Starman's Quest 40 inches


Grey Goose 40 inches
a gorgeous one bred by our own spiderjoe (Hawkins-J.)


Swallow Tail Kite 44 inches


I have a few others, but no photos on my tablet.

Genesta registered at 30" is consistently over 50" here.




Give Me Eight comes in at 50" on most of the scapes.

Valerie we cross posted. Those are lovely

Thanks, Mike. I have always been amazed at Genesta!

Two others

First Officers Log 46 inches


Tetrinas Daughter
This one is registered at 35 inches, but much taller in my garden

Love those pictures everybody! Especially that Cherry Peacock!

I just started loving tall daylilies a few years ago. I got Chew Mailpouch Tobacco (73" tall) in 2018, but it didn't bloom for me last year.

Here is Small World Aliens in the Sky (registered at 70" tall) that I got in 2017. It hasn't made it to 70" yet in my garden, 70", but am looking forward to seeing this clump up!

Small World Aliens in the Sky - hoping for better height this year. The yellow is Valley Monster (registered at 33").

Great post Frank, beautiful photos everyone! I don't have much to share yet but Celeste listed a few that I bought seed crosses from.

Late blooming : Thorhalla 46"+

Oh wow, that is a great looking clump, Mike!

Another tall one that I have is Howdy. Howdy was registered in 1949 and its registered height is 40". It is at least that tall here in my garden. Howdy battles it out with a grapevine on a dry hillside. It is a child of Hyperion.

Howdy battles well Valerie!

Nice bitone

Wonderful pics of Howdy, Valerie! I am almost positive I have Howdy. It looks so much like that.

Robin, Mike and Vickie.

Howdy is quite distinctive! Is your plant a Noid in your garden, Vickie?

Valerie, yes it is a NOID. I've probably had it since 2005 or so when some neighbors and I got together to do some plant trades. It was fun because we just went around to each others gardens and started digging and dividing various plants. This is one of the plants I got that day. I've always thought it was Howdy because it is a smallish bloom on at least a 36" scape.

Vickie it is a cutie.

It does look like, Howdy. Of course, with Noids, one never knows for sure, but it looks like it!
