I'm coming late to this thread, but perhaps better late than never. I read Oscie's articles on hybridizing every so often; it's a good thing to do just before daylily season, when one is tempted to go mad and dab pollen on everything.
As for plants, I grow Oscie's 'Sedalia', 'Pink Fanfare', and 'Femme Osage'. 'Pink Fanfare' always opens early and well here, which is a big consideration for me.
Last year I saw first bloom on a Whatley legacy seedling, registered as 'Sacrament of Healing'. It is too early to tell how well it is going to do here,
