Good morning all,
Running a daylily seed farm is great fun. Now that the season is over, and I am cleaning up some areas of the garden, I can't help but notice a few scapes that are loaded with pollen wires, but were completely void of pods. I registered two such divas, that laugh at me as I try to set pods on them every year.
CLOWN PANTS - never set a pod
VICTORIA JOSEPHINE - first pod ever this season
I have some others that have refused all my advances and attempts....early morning, late afternoon, full sun, part shade, dip pollen, fresh pollen, refrigerated pollen (I don't use frozen pollen), cool mornings, hot days, etc. They I include:
HEATHER GRACE
FOUR EYES
EYE OF THE DRAGON
Firstly, I would love to know if anybody else was successful in setting pods on any of these, and how they did it. Secondly, feel free to add to the list so we could share our failures, but hopefully some successes too.
Thanks,
Steve
