bxncbx said:Olallie Daylily Gardens in Vermont has a special focus on late and very late daylilies but most of them aren't registered. I have several. If you look at my plant list under unregistered you'll see the ones I have. All are dips though.

I've bought some Olallie cultivars some years ago and they are heavily in use for crossing since then - GG Fall Fairies is a result of Watermelon Summer VT and Final Touch. Unfortunately the import ban prevented my second purchasing attempt there. How can I find your plant list - I do not fully understand all the features of this forum up to now.

bxncbx said:Melanie Mason bred and sold some late blooming tets. Unfortunately, she went out of business last year. I have her Never Too Late. Some other later blooming tets I bought from her are Guava Jelly, Sanibel Coral & Bridgeton Eyecatcher.

Thanks for the cultivar names, Never Too Late looks fantastic!

I also have mixed daylily beds but I wouldn't worry too much about the colors. I think most daylily colors would work with many of autumn plants. I think the hardest color might be purple but reds, pinks, yellow, orange and brown would all be fine.

That is good to hear - I love all of them and try to offer a wide range of colors and flower forms.

bxncbx said:I love your red seedling! I have a late blooming NOID dip that looks very similar. And I would definitely buy Peach Party. It's gorgeous and it reblooms!

Then fingers crossed that the red one has high enough stems.
Peach Party is out of seeds from the AHS seed donation program - if you see it in the garden you will find somehow 'different' even if the color is soft and subtle. The flowers look like made of icecream or whipped cream or frozen yoghurt? Every garden visitor last year wanted to get a fan so I decided to register the seedling.
