I had 3 new (to me) cultivars bloom today:

Mister Lucky - Quite an outstanding small red bloomer. Thanks, Vickie! I love this color!

Little Jet Setter - Oh my gosh! I am in love with the minis! This is the tiniest and cutest little daylily bloom I've ever seen! (I need to add my hand in my next photos to show just how small these blooms are.) I am tickled to have some of these teeny cultivars! I can see another obsession coming on ....

Gadsden Goliath - I really like the bloom on this one, but it leans over (probably because of the huge size of the blooms). Had to stake the scape to keep it upright. I am thinking it will be good for hybridizing though, with another cultivar or seedling having a strong scape.

There is just something about Gleber's Top Cream that I absolutely love. It has a shorter scape, but the foliage is beautiful and the blooms are like nothing else I have:
