Well, I have Happy Happy and Shamrock Summer, which is a baby from Best Edge.
I think I will cross these two this year and see what I get. Oh, such possibilities.
See how you hybridizing guys give us ideas.

Big Betsy-garden name ( I think this is Orange Electric x Matthew Kaskel or vice versa)


Exotic Treasure x Thomas Tew


April Laquinta x Lillian's Jinger Bred




Ultimate Fantasy x Abilene Lillian


Violet Becomes You x purple seedling ( this is actually a real pretty sparkly amethyst color, I can't pick up the correct color with the camera)


Singular Sensation x Fringy



Mark Sattelmeier (Abundant Daylilies) seedling Fantastic Fringe x Malcolm David Brooker Sr

I like Betsy.

I like all of them.

Love Big Betsy and the last one (of course!), but all of them are real beauties!

Thanks for taking the time to post these, both of you.

Fred, do you think a mid-rib contributes to a broken eye in it's kids?

Oh Michele,
Please, please, please, I want one of each, atleast one. More would be even better!!! I would never be able to pick just one of these as the best since they are all the best!

Leslie, I don't think so, they all have midribs, some are just a lot more visible. In most of the patterns I have see you do not see the midrib.

Late posting today, getting more behind everyday.
VISION OF NIGHT X MAGIC MAN 5.5 8 month

EHERN THOMAS X HB42 5" 8 month

KEEP ON DREAMING X SEEDLING 210 6" 8 month

(LILLIAN'S LIES AND ALIBIS X IVAN ATTITUDE) X WALTER KENNEDY 5.50" 8 month

SEEDLING OF THE DAY
(LILLIAN'S DORA SWANSON X HB42) X HB42 6" 8 month

They are all very, very nice. Really enjoy seeing what the parent
choices produce. E. Thomas is making some nice babies.

Wow Fred! You have some winners here. I love the one with "Keep on Dreaming". It's awesome, beautiful and everyother adjective I could think up. E. Thomas and Vof the night are great too. I'd love to have these.

I hope you don't get too stressed. I look forward to bloom time but by the time you make the crosses, record this, then make pictures and title them and upload a few here, your day has become 26hours long and you haven't even ate or slept. Take time to enjoy your work and to recieve your blessings daylily.

AND PLEASE REMIND ME OF THIS IN A FEW WEEKS!!!!

James' sdlgs

Buddy's Black Lady x Randy Stephens ( I absolutely love this one) this has a darker purple coloring to it than my camera captured.






Buddy's Boogie Babe x


dbl sdlg with teeth




Lillian's Jinger Bred x Fantastic Fringe


Rolling Raven x Cherry Swizzler


Zuni x Happy Happy

Now for my first baby to bloom

Exotic Treasure x Thomas Tew


you can't see it in the photo, but this has a very thin line of sparkly silver (diamond dusting?) on the edge

Michele!

I also like Buddy's Black Lady x Randy Stephens, and Zuni x Happy Happy.

Oh Michele - it's a beauty! I love it! And all of James' toothy seedlings too -- do you know if and when he might introduce any of them? Fantastic!

Fred, each of those seedlings looks fabulous -- and I'm especially drawn to the KEEP ON DREAMING seedling -- makes me feel very happy just to look at it! And that last one -- what edges! And I see those tiny little teeeeeth too!

Betty--these toothy ones, if he keeps them, will probably be a couple of years. Now he does have a few that I think will be introduced next year (available in the fall) that is toothy. I will post photos when I take one (I keep forgetting to get these once they open fully).

Also like the Buddy's Black Lady x Randy Stephens. Look at how flat that blossom
is from the side. I like it when they look like that.

Michele, you done good on that first baby to bloom. What size
are your pictures here. When I open them, I just say Wow, that
looks so good.

I'm not sure what size the photos are. After I crop them I just leave them that size and upload them. They do get resized when they get uploaded here to whatever Dave has designated, but not sure what it is; I think it's about 1000x800
