'the daylily formerly known as Organized Chaos' All kidding aside, that name would not be accepted by the registration committee because it exceeds the maximum number of letters allowed for a registered cultivar ( 30 letters not including spaces) .
Personally, I find it very frustrating that a few hybridizers introduce cultivars without first registering them because then these confusions arise and people are then mad and upset and contact AHS about this. We are not the daylily police and we cannot make people register, and sometimes we don't know when people are selling unregistered introductions until we either stumble across it or someone lets us know. Anyone who buys a new introduction should ALWAYS check that it is registered before you purchase - that is, if it means anything to you that the name is accepted, ( so that you won't buy something only to find that the name has been assigned to another registration, as happened with this!) or that it would ever be eligible to be entered into a flower show or win any AHS awards.Those two methods mentioned are the only controls that AHS has over hybridizers registering. if a hybridizer is not in compliance with registration ( to the best of our knowledge) then he or she is not eligible to nominate any cultivars for awards.
There are still a couple of people ( that I am currently aware of) who are selling daylilies for top dollar prices out there that are NOT registered, so " caveat emptor." - buyer beware!
