Bloom of the day....

Fabulous Frieda (Kirchhoff)

This one wins scape of the year.... it always has amazing branching, but this year, it has outdone itself.

Truganini (Curt Hanson)

And, one of my very favorites, but never hear it mentioned anywhere... Zazu is a wonderful peachy-orange that is tall, has big flowers that pinch and have throat ruffles. Very hard to get seed with it or on it.

Zazu Pitts (McNeil Carter)

love that Fabulous Frieda

One of the scapes on Truganini --- not bad in a year when so many are really tall, but top branched. Unusual amount of rain this year!

Nice branching on Truganini!

I had my second bloom on my peach seedling... I was gone all day so this was late. It's lighter at the end of the day. Nothing else is blooming and I have my last Iris Dynamite bloom...maybe tomorrow some other DLs will open. It's hard to be patient!

Susan it's fun to see yours and know mine won't be long behind. I love Kansas Kitten! And the picture of Cameroon is great with the white lily behind.

Jules what zone are you?> Will the Hansons survive zone 4?

Dorathy, I am in 5/6, Curt Hanson is in 5. I know Gary Shaben (sp?) grows a lot of Curts in Minnesota (I think that is where Gary lives....)

I don't think they would have a problem. If there are particular ones your interested in, and your not a member of the AHS robin, I can post a question there for you.... surely someone in zone 4 grows Hanson's!

It's probably worth trying some. I haven't killed any DLs some just shrink over the years! Some of the evs have surprised me, Pandora's Treasure that was a bonus from Maryott is going crazy here, tripled in size and throwing up scapes..you never know.

I love my Northwind Dancer and Drifters. Schabens are good!

This will open up some new horizons.

Since everyone seems to be looking at these threads, did everyone see this thread from Sunshines2day? I have never heard of the daylily, or the hybridizer.

I wish my Fabulous Frieda looked that good !

Rita, FabF didn't bloom last year. I actually cheat - I have my darker daylilies where they are shaded until about noon. Makes for good photos. I have another bed that is full sun, and I have yellow, peach, pink in that one.

They are all beautiful, I loved the color on the Kansas Kitten too.
Fabulous Frieda is an eyecather too. Beautiful.

I got mine last year but it didn't bloom. I had my reds in part shade too and they looked pretty good but a big tree came down this spring. Now its full sun. Much better in general and I like it all much better. But the reds in there are not looking as good, kinda melted.

CHORAL FANTASY (Maryott)

MALAYSIAN MARKETPLACE

Wish my Choral Fantasy looked as good as yours Rita.

Jules, I really like all the ones you posted. Such nice clear colors.

Here's Blackberries and Cream

Brooklyn Twist always does well.

This seedling is Art Gallery Iridescence X Bodacious Bite. I like the white teeth and the iridescence of the eye.
