DogsNDaylilies said:Keith, do you know if these are likely to be blue, or are they more likely to be white or pink? Or do your varieties completely run the gamut? (I'm about to go research how long it takes for blooms...I'm curious if blooms appear on first-year plants or if they need to be more mature to bloom. )


I've collected seeds from all 3 of those colors, plus offspring from those that cross pollinated. Pink is most likely followed by white/white mix and blue least likely. Blooms can appear in first year plants but usually it takes two years.
