"I love my other daylilies, but it is so much fun looking through my seedlings to see what has bloomed." I can only imagine how exciting that must be. Seeing the daylilies you've seen before, even the FFOs in your yard you've probably seen online or in a catalog. But having your own seedlings would be like xmas morning every day all season long. A new surprise each time!

Jean, I was really into wintersowing for a few years, still sow a few every year. Takes a while for hosta to get big, but kinda like daylilies, fun to watch them mature. This hosta reseeds easily. I looked up H. ventrocosa & says it is the only hosta to come true from seed, but lots can be grown from seed & you can get some interesting ones when they cross. Thanks Ellie, the seedling is pretty large, 6" or so. You know I like large flowers, so that is what I go for. I just hope this one will continue improving, I think this is its 4th bloom & the first to fully open. Thanks Alexa, and I appreciate your ID of the hosta. You are absolutely right about the leaf, pretty plain, but a nice glossy green.

The whitish one with the green looks very much like the one I have here which is a Heavenly Pink Butterfly x RFK kid. Interesting colors on the purple one. Julia

Debra, I seldom get rebloom on seedlings but one of my new favorite seedling this year has a lovely scape and will open in a few days. I also noticed some on the seedlings in the seedling garden. A first for me... I think the forst one has improved but the darkness is gone. I like this better. Chris, she is only 2 but if nothing happens to her, i will see if I can share her with you next year. The blooms on that baby are huge.. About 6 and 1/2" but who knows what will happen next year . ML bloomer, about 22" in height but I think that will improve. She was in the shadow of a tree and I have just moved her to a place where she will have some freedom.. ! She is a bright one Kay. I hope she stays the way she is..this is her first bloom year.. Rita, I can't wait to see this one in a clump.. ngraham, that's the reason I do close up pix. I like to see the details. Thanks to you all, I am encouraged...Ellie
