Juli @daylily Thanks for the acorn! It's nice to know you're still reading what's going on πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ€—

Larry @Seedfork Only until you're 98? πŸ˜‚ I think people tend to be too hard on judging their daylilies when they're looking to make that first registration. Watch what the "pros" do. Scarcely any of the daylilies they introduce become winners. There's a lot of competition, so they don't expect them to. They introduce the best of what they have each year. They don't wait for perfection. Improvements or "something different" are the main criteria.

Maybe if you picked 3 or 4 of your best so far to register at once it would take the pressure off trying to find just one worthy?

Spoken by a person who has never registered a daylily πŸ˜„ and only just this year decided to try making and actually planting some crosses with beauty in mind (instead of science).
