Thanks, I bought this from Tommy a couple seasons ago and this is the first I've seen it bloom. I've been using pollen from one of my own seedlings, shown below, but I have yet to set a pod. I will keep trying though as I really like it. I am also going to use Carved Initials on it. As for how long I've been doing this I've gown daylilies since the 80's and been hybridizing since the ealy 2000's. The cross shown here is ((Sherry Lane Carr x Victorian Lace) X (Bass Gibson)). What suprised me about it is that it is nearly an 8" flower and both parrents were only about 5". It was not at all what I expected but I am very pleased with it.
