Very nice!!! I have Small Gesture too and didn't know it was a Stamile. Got it as a bonus plant and it does bloom a long time.

More Stamile intros.

Thanks Betty for your generous comments on my photos.

Thanks Char for your compliment.

WOw it only gets better with each post.

Dot, does Voila Francios set pods? I'm looking for a good white and that photo has all the qualities I like! I'm going to be crossing it with some of the fancy Eyes I'm getting this year. I checked it's stats and they say 30" 6" and 50 buds. I'd love to think that a daylily can have that many buds, but they do not in my pots. I do good to get 20 buds that actually bloom.
AS always, Dot, your photos are stunning.

What a great place to start! I went over my list of daylilies and discovered that the majority are from the Stamiles (24). I have (11) from the second most represented hybridizer so I obviously am partial to the Stamile introductions (even though I never realized it until today!). I checked my orders that I placed for this spring's delivery and, sure enough, the Stamile name dominates it, too

Oh, how I love that WHEN ROYALS DREAM!

Mona,

Voila Francois is very pretty BUT, I have never gotten it to set a pod or the pollen to take on anything. It is just a pretty flower here.

Dot

Well, Your photo made me drool. I may still get one of them, as you say, just to have. I checked the LA and a few DF sold for $12. For that, I'd could very easily give 2 of them a home here.

But, that still leaves me needing another good white. I love Fred's white ones, but they are all dips. I use Victorian Lace and Arctic Lace, which are great white ones. I just wanted to add another newer one to the list.

Thanks for the info, Mona

What about Snow Crystal? That one caught my eye. I haven't looked at price on the LA or even if it's listed, trying to behave myself as all planting spots are spoken for already this year. Know nothing of it's fertility either, I just really like the form of the flower.

Searched my plant list and found a few more images to add...

Who will be next...

Mona,

Snow Crystal is an awesome white. It sets pods well also. I sold lots of seeds from it last year.

I got two new whites this year, one from Nicole called "Sheika" and an extra from Dan Trimmer called "Great Gatsby". Ann gave me a fan of her "Ice Crystal" also.
