I was one of the first 300 contributors to the plant database!
If you do a search of the AHS database with 'samantha' anywhere in the name it comes up with 10 daylilies. Not sure how many of those are actually available though.

Thanks Ann, that's what I was afraid of. They are all probably older ones.

'Sassy Sam' came to mind when I saw this thread. If "Sam" would suit you as well, it might be worth searching for.

That is a very nice one!!!! My niece is 5 so I am not sure the name would go over that well with her mom. But, I guess I could grow it for her until she is older, right???

Or you can buy an unregistered daylily seedling off the lily auction and name it yourself something like Sassy Samantha.

Great, great idea! Her eyes will light up with hearts to have a flower named for her, especially if you register it and frame the AHS data sheet.

Cindy, What form are you looking for?

My granddaughter's name is Samantha.

This is the seedling she choose to carry her name....

More than likely a round form like you just posted. I already ordered Bella Isabella for the oldest niece Isabella, now I am looking for a daylily for Samantha who is 5. That's a lovely one Lyle.

I have seen a couple that I liked but haven't purchased one yet. The one I liked was over $l00 and I really don't want to spend that much right now. Maybe I'll get a nice seedling this year and register it with Samantha's name in it.
