I also had the pleasure of receiving seeds from Hemlady
Many were planted (after they germinated by the paper towel method using H202 solution) on January 29th. Most are 12" or taller right now. Although I didn't keep track of the germination rate, I can say it was pretty darn good. I'll be excited to see blooms from her seeds because they were crosses from daylilies that I don't have myself. I planted a lot of my own too. This is my first time trying this and I'm having fun. Some sleepless nights, wondering if I'm doing the right things. Can't wait til the weather stays warm enough so I feel safe getting them in the ground.
They really are not as yellow as they appear to be in the picture. It's just my camera and the lighting.
