Great idea Paula. Mine right now are in random places except I try to plant dips on one side of my yard and tets on the other side.

MANDALAY BAY MUSIC - FFOE - Not sure this is the correct plant. Received 2 new small fans last year from seller on LA. Did not bloom last summer. This is its maiden bloom. Does anyone grow this daylily, and can reassure me that this is MBM. It definitely looks yellow to me. Beautiful daylily????

Fabulous flowers, all. I love the gentle color and edge on Mandalay Bay Music - looks peach to me.

On the Lady Lucille question, I bought a Lady Lucille that was/is the same as the Oakes one at least 7 years ago - from Home Depot, I think! - to plant in my daughter's garden in Salt Lake City. So that name has been around a lot longer than 2 years, but I wonder if it just wasn't registered? Or maybe registered somewhere else, like in the UK or Europe?

Why do you think this is not Lady Lucille? I bought one from Oakes with this name. Is it because it says something like All American Selection? The one I have is beautiful and a strong grower.


Yes, the one I have is an outstanding bloomer too. But I like to look up all my daylilies on AHS and compare the attributes the seller gave them to what's in the AHS database. I've been surprised sometimes in that they don't always match. I was very surprised to find that the Oakes Lady Lucille is not the same flower as the AHS Lady Lucille.

Very happy to see ffoe on Captain Noodles which I saved from crown rot. It was the size of a blade of grass, and I treated with banrot and then potted and covered with a clear plastic 2 liter container with
lots of holes drilled in top. Last Sepember I lifted and planted in ground and kept container on.

Today's ffoe bloomed on a small scape with only 2 buds, but I'm pretty happy.

You wouldn't think they would allow another DL with the same name; they are definitely different, but I prefer mine! I think I will contact Oakes and see if they can explain this. I have long noticed that they don't mention the hybridizer's name with the plants.

It means they(or the hybridizer) did not register that plant. Some nurseries do not bother registering their plants. I personally do not like to buy unregistered daylilies that are sold as anything other than seedling, a listed cross or as a No ID. It's just a preference thing for me.

I agree It's one thing if you know it is not named or registered. Selling it with a name when it does not really have one only gets confusing!

Hilarious! Captain Noodles...what a cute name for a twisty bloom! Gosh, can't believe it is the end of July already and most everything has now ffo'd in the garden, still peak with a lot of buds out there. A few more blooms from the past few days....

Acquired Arcadian Bliss, great little sculpted form.


Adorable Tiger, bright colors, tends to be slow to increase no matter where I've moved it over the years.


Belle of Ashwood, opens nicely even when cool, it's growing in to much shade which hurts the plant, less br/bdc, need to move it to a better spot.


Buzz Saw, pretty cream, never as tall as registered here.


Cloaking Device, cool pink lavender with a watermark.


Crazy Mr. Jim (and friend) Smiling


Doc Branch, grows well and bouquet blooms daily for a long time once it reaches clump size.


Empire Queen, nice yellow with light relief sculpting.


Girlish Laughter, pretty pale pink with darker eye from Moldovan.


Jerry Pate Williams, definitely not blooming up to it's normal self this year after the horrible winter, but it's still blooming nicely and the plant looks good.

Love this one more now that it is more established. Color is awesome and flowers are bigger this year.

Not the massive branching as they would have farther south, but still a very generous bud count.
