So true, Frillylily!! I have wondered what true blue daylilies would be named in the future. So many good names have already been taken, lol. Wouldn't it be great if the old hybridizers could chime in on the new daylilies? Like you, I'm not sure if I like the broken patterned daylilies and I definitely am not crazy about the heavy pie crust edges that don't open.
It is a shame that so many of the old Wild daylilies can't be found anymore. But maybe Mr. Wild introduced so many that were not really garden worthy that they became unfavorable in the gardens. There are some really good ones though, like 'Wild One', which I still need to do a review of. Hopefully, I got the right "One",
I now have the unpleasant and disappointing task of going back through all my pictures and renaming my so-called Indian Pumpkin as a NOID. I am glad that I never traded or sold it as such.
