@sooby or anybody else, can you help sort some of this out? I think @Zuzu knows how to fix these better than anyone! nodding

Hemerocallis dumortieri has been corrected, Zuzu helped me with that one: The AHS has listed the botanist's name as the hybridizer. Morren (AHS has misspelled it as "Moren") discovered the species in 1934.

So there is no cultivar by that name. AHS also misspelled the "cultivar" name (Dumortierii, but the actual name is Hemerocallis dumortieri).
The AHS also did this with other species, giving them a "cultivar" name.


I guess because it's the only setup they had but we can make the proper corrections and add all the synonyms too. It would be nice to add relevant historical notes as comments to the entries too. Thumbs up
