Debra and Nancy - Thank you!
God Save the Queen has been a good breeding cultivar as a parent. It really produces some nice seedling blooms no matter what you cross it with. Sometimes cultivars can surprise you when they are used for breeding. This is God Save the Queen:
Daylily (Hemerocallis 'God Save the Queen')
Unfortunately, most of mine that have the patterned or pretty faces are not as rust resistant as I would like them to be. In the south, if the foliage doesn't look good, then the plant can be disappointing. Many of my pretty faces will have to be bred more to increase their rust resistance. But that's part of the challenge and fun of being a hobby hybridizer. I love a good challenge!!!
