I completely agree with the bigger ones. They are what drew me into daylilies about 7 years ago now. Not just the bigger blooms, but the bigger scapes and how much real estate some of these bigger plants take up. Judy, you obviously advanced this a lot, adding colors and watermarks and other forms that drew people like me into the daylily world. But I have a growing Goldner collection that I feel may have come from similar goals.
Good call Larry, but I'm not really knowledgeable enough on its origins to do a write up on it. I wasn't sure if it was new, or just new to me. It does seem like more and more daylilies are being innovated that are designed to be enjoyed even more when you are close up.
Beautiful write up, Char!
I agree with you, Pam, but I also think we're here in the Daylily world at a great time. There are so many talented hybridizers out there concentrating on their things, and there are enough of us "buyers" out here that there's room for demand to be high in many styles at the same time. Minis, stripes, patterns, sculpted, dips, tets... seems like we live in good times to be a fan of daylilies.
