Hi jnduclos,

I read those posts on Facebook and was going to talk to Sue on this website about it but here it is already being discussed! Glad something's being done about it and hopefully it will get corrected for everyone's sake. It's a wonder it went this far being mislabeled. Anyway, it's being corrected is the important thing!

Thanks! Sheila

I have seen no evidence of it being corrected! That is the dilemma, it does not appear to be a problem of the vendors not being aware, it continues to be a problem because nothing is being done about it.

It is a situation where it will probably never be corrected 100%....... As long as people have it in their gardens with the incorrect name on it and vendors continue to sell it labeled incorrectly. I call it when I see it. It's all anyone can do.

Thank you for the welcome! Smiling

Seedfork said:I looked in the data base and 'Dorothy Lambert' is showing to have won three awards if I am reading the data correctly: JC HM and AM, if you were looking for a daylily that won those awards wouldn't you want to receive the correct plant, and not just one they have listed by that name? I would think such awards were not given out without some thought and should have some meaning to a Company selling daylilies.


I think this would be a perfect example of what the letter to Oakes might say..

I am still going with the idea that the one Oakes is selling as 'Dorothy Lambert' is 'Something' by hybridizer Wild. Unless E&B Daylily Farm sold me the wrong plant. I don't know if it doesn't show as well in pictures or if others just didn't notice the labeling of the pictures I posted before. Here are some more from the other day.

These are of the one I was sold as 'Dorothy Lambert'
