Hi Frank!
Good to see you as an ATP member!
We had a cold and snowy day and it's suppose to be that way for all weekend here.
Are you referring to:

I did some checking for you and wanted to list the garden watchdog link, so you could read the reviews. I checked all the daylilies that Eden has shown with the database. Do not get any that I haven't listed. Read the ATP links that I provided.
Here's the Garden Watchdog with the positive, neutral and negative reviews for this company.

I've never ordered from them before.
I heard from Mom, Tom or Cath that you're going to be moving to TN sometime and I'll give you a start of Marilyn Grua. Didn't want you to lose it in TX. I'll have to check how many fans I have when Spring gets here. It's a semi-evergreen (SEV), so that's ok for you to plant in TX. Don't plant any dormants (DOR) where you are, because they probably won't grow for you. You can grow (EV) evergreen where you are too.
I usually get my Daylilies from Dan Bachman, in Lebanon, OH, who hybridized Marilyn Grua. I don't think he ships in the Winter. I'll mail you some of his introductions this Spring that are not DOR.
'Prairie Blue Eyes' is ok to plant. It's a SEV. I grew that one before and it's a nice one.

'Janice Brown' is another good one. I used to grow this one and it's a pretty one. It's also SEV.

'Bela Lugosi' is another great one. It's also SEV. I used to grow this one also.

'Mildred Mitchell' is an EV, so you could grow that one. I used to grow it and loved it! It's a beauty. Here's a pic of it at Dan & Jackie Bachman's yard, where I gave a lot of my older daylilies to.

Moonlight Masquerade is not the "correct" name. The correct name is 'Moonlit Masquerade'. It's a SEV and ok for you to plant in TX. I used to grow this one and loved it. It's a beauty. You'll like that also.

'Strawberry Candy' is another good one for you. It's SEV. I used to plant this one and loved it. It's a beauty. It won the highest award a registered daylily can get!

'Purplelicious' is a recently new one that I haven't grown.

It should be ok for you to plant, since it's SEV.

'Pandora's Box' is a good one. It has won 4 awards. I haven't grown it before, but is ok for you to plant, since it's EV.

'Entrapment' is another SEV, so you could grow it there. It was introduced in 2006.

Prairie Bella is not the correct name. It's 'Prairie Belle' and is a SEV, so you could grow this one.

Of the ones shown on the Eden list, these are the only ones you could grow in south TX. I checked them all with the ATP database. The other ones are ones that are only hardy to the northern states.
Happy to help you out! Miss seeing ya! Must be nice to have 73 degrees!
Love, Marilyn (your sister)
