Going to try to make this quick... here are some of my Emmerichs blooming today. Will try to do a post of some Hansons and a post of some others soon - was going to try to do all three tonight, but not enough time. Sorry some of these aren't orientated properly, if you feel the need to cock your head to the side on some, that is why! :o)

Filled to Overflowing

Mount Ararat

Soul On Fire

Flight Into Egypt

Fear Not

Kingdom Without End

Thanks for looking... Laura

Wow, Laura, very nice! I don't grow many Emmerichs so I'm curious how long you've had these and if you have any statistics regarding increase and bud count.

Emmerich Intros From Today

Well, I only passed it on as I learned about Emmerich intros on this forum early on in my daylily crazies. In fact it was just after I had filled up the big bed in my backyard I call the plateau with stuff I bought from Maryotts. Last year I changed that plateau and now there are quite afew Emmeriches growing up there while many of the evergreens and others I bought that first year are now happily growing on my diveway side slope. But I have gone off here and the subject is your lovely Emmeriches blooming today. I love them all except for MOSES IN THE BULLRUISHES, not my taste. But the others, oh la la :-)) My favorite there is King of the Ages, so very pretty but then they all are.

So hard to pick a favorite from this group. I've been wanting NTS for a while but wasn't sure it would look like the pictures. Thanks for posting your's. It's beautiful and now I know I must get it! :) Also love Panchen Lama. Haven't seen that one before. Very pretty....they're ALL pretty. Tahoe is new to me this year and I don't think it will bloom. So I'm happy to see a picture of your Tahoe. Michelle

Little Light of Mine is beautiful! FTO is turning into a beauty. I can only imagine how gorgeous MITB will be once it gets settled. I agree, as it winds down, it almost like the day after Christmas. But, we've got the pictures, and the cleanup, and the plant moves, and the pods and the seed starting, and if we're lucky with yard space, new beds and...more daylilies to bring in. Yay! Bj

A nice bloom, especially as it's so late in the season. Some things are still blooming here but it's just getting less and less each day. So sad :-(( I do have Karols MOUNT ARARAT reblooming but its the only one in that entire daylily bed.

Thanks for showing these. I'm surprised how good Flight Into Egypt looks. How do you evaluate each of these? I'm sure they are not viewed as equals.

They are all beautiful! Love! Filled To Overflowing is so pretty, how tall does it grow in your garden? That's a really nice pic of Flight Into Egypt. I never paid much attention to it. And Kingdom Without End is just beautiful.

These are all so pretty. My favorite is Filled To Overflowing, but I like many of Karol's daylilies, and grow a few of them here,

All very pretty. Some of Karol's do well here and others seemed to take a bit to get going. Thanks for sharing.

Nat, I went out and measured Filled To Overflowing and the scapes are about 30-36" tall here - much taller than the 24" I see it's registered at!

Chris, I really can't comment on increase and bud count, as I don't pay much attention to those things. Plus most of mine were in pots for a while. Here's a brief summary on the ones I have pictured:

Filled To Overflowing - have had for 5 years, it's been in the ground for 3 years I think. Lots of fans now. Last year it was one of 2 or 3 daylilies I had that had rebloom.

Mount Ararat - just got last May, was in a pot until last fall. 4 fans, each fan has a scape, but 3 of the fans have another shorter scape coming up (instant rebloom)

Soul On Fire, Flight Into Egypt, Fear Not (also Light of the World, Overflowing Heart, Seventy TImes Seven and Open Door) - have had for 2-4 years, were in pots until last fall. I don't think any of these rebloom.

Kingdom Without End - got last July, planted in a pot, then planted in the ground in the fall. 3 fans, 2 fans have scapes (1 fan has 2 scapes).

I have some others too.

Almost all of them have been great performers for me. The ones I like the best are the ones that are the colors I like best - purples and reds - Filled to Overflowing, Mount Ararat, Fear Not and Kingdom Without End. And I love the ones that are EMOs, since I am always up early in the morning. I think the best EMO and CMO (even on a 50 degree morning) of the ones I have is Kingdom Without End.

Thanks for the info. It's good to know which ones are EMOs when you live in climates like ours. I'm finding that no matter how hot it gets during the day, if the night before was cool, the flowers never open completely.

Thanks! I'm glad to hear that about FTO's height.
I just found an instant rebloom scape on Light of the World btw.
Good to know that Kingdom without end is a CMO and EMO!

Karol always seem to produce some very beautiful daylilies. I grow a number of them, and they are always great bloomers. Filled To Overflowing and Kingdom Without End are my favorites of this group.
