Photos of My Daylilies
Here are pictures of most of the daylilies I grow. Some of them have not bloomed for me yet! I will try to keep adding my new daylilies as I get their pretty faces on film. I hope these beauties can serve as an inspiration for all those daylily collectors out there!

2009 Crosses

Best Blogger Tips
CROSS


AWESOME ARTIST X VERTICAL HORIZON
Awesome Artist x Veritcal Horizon

SEEDLINGS:












3/10/11 - This cross really has some vigorous growers with some really interesting eyes!!  Inherited the tall, beautiful scapes from Vertical Horizon.

CROSS

BLUE JEAN BABY X ASIAN FAIRY BLUEBIRD
Blue Jean Baby x Asian Fairy Bluebird

SEEDLINGS:


3/20/11 - This is the only seedling to survive the summer (and the winter, yeah!).  This cross was VERY susceptible to rot.  I can't wait to see what another year brings to this.

CROSS

FORTUNE'S DEAREST X DANCE BOJANGLES DANCE
Foturne's Dearest x Dance Bojangles Dance

SEEDLINGS:

3/20/1 - I don't think any of this cross actually made it through the summer.  I'll have to double check the bed to be sure

CROSS


HALF MOON KEY X MUSICAL MEDLEY
Photobucket

SEEDLINGS:
As you can see from the pictures of all the SIBS below, they ALL were Bitones!  I love it!  Great cross overall for some very hearty clear pinks.  All are STRONG growers, an improvement over MUSICAL MEDLEY which had a tendency to rot here in the hot summer.



6/1/10


This one is showing promise in form and has a sharp/sharky edge even on the Sepals!!



4/25/11 - Scapes up on two of the sibs of this cross.  I count that as EE!  First of the garden to scape up.

CROSS


HURRICANE SWIRLS X WILD IRISH
HURRICANE SWIRLS X WILD IRISH
SEEDLINGS:
3/20/11 - There were some seriously fuggly babies in this group!!  Wow... but, the plant habits are great!!  I am hoping the three below might even out a bit with some time.











**************************************************
CROSS

LOOK INTO MY EYES X JERRY HYATT
LOOK INTO MY EYES X JERRY HYATT

SEEDLINGS:
3/20/11 - This was probably the best cross of 2010 overall.  Super scapes and budcounts, great growers and the fans are multiplying like crazy.  The faces are good too!!



Check out the scapes compared to the rest of the crowd! (It's the one in the middle of the pic!)

CROSS


NAVY BLUES X STAR CHILD
Photobucket

SEEDLINGS:

3/20/11 - Only one seedling survived our harsh summer and winter... only the strong make it in my backyard!!  Really, really white base on this little guy.  Would love to cross it with something bright purple and get a super clear lavender/Crayola purple.  Form is this great all the time.

CROSS


PINK ROCKS X PARTY PINAFORE
Photobucket

SEEDLINGS:


3/20/11 - I really mistreated this poor cross!  They sat out on the cement during a week of 100 degree plus days.... I am surprised any of them lived, but I still have one pot of this left.  No blooms, but hoping it will bloom this year.

SHORES OF TIME X MOMENTS RICH IN BLESSING
Photobucket

SEEDLINGS:

3/20/11 - Eiher I missed this whole cross blooming, which is possible (I went out of town for two weeks), or it didn't bloom last year.  Nothing stands out in my head about the vitality of this cross.... need to look out in the bed!  :o)











**************************************************
CROSS
YANKEE DOODLE BLUES X STAR CHILD
Photobucket
SEEDLINGS:

3/20/11 - Only one seedling survived, but it's a goody!  I really love how blue the eye is on this one.  The base is so white from STAR CHILD, that the blue looks like the only color left there... it is light, but there!
