First time to bloom!

12 years ago

I was excited to see this daylily bloom because it has a blue eye. I don't know what it will look like in the future and the flower isn't knockout gorgeous but I really like the blue. Who knows, it may turn out fantasyic...

This is the one I want to register in memory of my mother! I know you have seen it before but it's so pretty with the toothed sepals and the nice edge. I was gathering data on it but my dh chopped it up with the tiller. I still have a little left and some new growth but it has been set back..

Here's the new look on the one with the fantastic eye!!

This also is a first time ever to bloom. I can't wait to see what it shapes up to be... Thank you all...Ellie

Oh, sorry about your seedling getting hacked up :-( SGR7L9 is the one I really like best.

Ah they are so pretty! Yes, you can't let 'em near the plants if they aren't a gardener. So sorry, but at least all is not lost.

I like all of them, Ellie, but SGR7L9 is my favorite.

ilovemyiris, Sorry, but I only have a few that I got from a lady up at Davis, CA, last year when we were up there to visit our son. irisgal_z9, you're right about the color being pinker. I guess garnet is the right description.

Ellie, I'm in love with the second seedling you want to register. I love the color, the form, the edge . . . What's the size of this beauty?

Rita & Kay..I guess great minds think alike! LOL!!

Chris, this is a small one. About 19 to 20 inches tall and a 4.75 " bloom. I have been waiting for it to grow and it still might be a bit taller. I think she is a cutie. Pretty decent bud count to. Both parent are taller with bigger blooms...

Thanks linda..

crackingtheconcrete, I really like that one too. The petals are pinched in this photo but there usually are recurved which give a really good view of the eye!

Thanx all...Ellie
