Wow, those are some really good suggestions. Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!

I haven't seen any royal purple in the Daylily world so I was looking for a bright clear colored...as close to a dark, royal purple as I can get. I have a Tet picked out (H. Nosferatu) but also needed a Dip to expand my gene pool, so I can play with Dips too. I've been trying to build my DL stock in some sort of organized manner. Hilarious! It sure is tough to be focused and selective with this hobby.

I'm really liking 'Spirit World' for my purposes but; how can anyone ignore the black-purple in 'Jungle Beauty'? Yes the pattern in Starman's Quest is superb! Thanks for those Valerie and DND.

Karen, Woodside Amethyst is a petite little pretty, she's almost a bi-tone. Being slow to increase isn't a bad thing either. I've got to go and check out all of the foliage of the suggestions too. I may end up getting more than one (I hate it when that happens).

Oops, Grape Velvet is perfect too. If I were smart Whistling I'd buy them all and see for myself how each of these would look in my garden. Funny thing, I'm usually better at visualizing. I don't know why that talent doesn't work with Daylilies?

Thanks Karen and David!

Stan, I tried searching on our database. One would think if the search criteria were only ploidy and color, I'd get more than two hits.
God blessed me with dirt.
