We grow quite a few Klehm daylilies. My husband Bob is always on the hunt for a new one. I agree that the colors and blends are beautiful but to me many of Klehm's cultivars look too much alike. Many of them do bloom late, which is a trait we are looking for. And many of them had teeth even before teeth got so popular. Some of Klehm's daylilies are hard to find. Apparently Song Sparrow Nursery doesn't list everything every year. We had a hard time finding Princess of Alexandria. Most of ours were purchased on the Lily Auction.

These are the ones we grow.

New Tangerine Twist is one of our favorites. It's tall, hardy, very floriferous, and sets seeds like crazy.

Ruffled Strawberry Parfait is one that is popular with hybridizers. We hurt it one year by putting too many pods on it but it is bouncing back. It is a late blooming variety and is a parent of lots of nice daylilies.

Techny Peach Lace is also a late blooming variety. We have not found it to be very fertile but it is a great grower.

Carrots Forever is relatively new to our garden so it isn't quite established yet. I like the orange tones on this one.

Wide Awake makes me want to cry. I think it is the prettiest of the Klehms, but it is the one that has not done well in our garden. We got this beautiful bloom the first year, but it's been downhill since. This variety is also a late bloomer.

Lemon Fringed Pastel is more yellow than many others. The first one we planted bloomed the first year and then the next year was almost dead. We replaced it and it has done fine. We have pine voles so maybe they ate the roots on the first one that winter. This has one of the best edges of any I have seen. (Please forgive the transparent areas on the petals--This picture was taken after a rain, but it shows the best edge.)

Ruffles forever is another lovely one.

Jumble Edge is the only one we have been really disappointed in. The flowers seem to be erratic in their shape. It left our garden this year.

We also have the following varieties but I don't have pictures of them.

Princess of Alexandria--described as golden orange--ours is too new to tell about habit but is supposed to be a great grower.

Angel's Smile--is short and small (4 inches) but has been used a lot in putting edges on its offspring

So Beautiful to Me--a nice grower and a lovely flower

Huckleberry Friend--a late variety that is a good grower

Anglique Fringes--has not done that well for us

Happy Beacons and Bearded Dragons--just planted this past spring and they haven't bloomed yet.

Our experience is that, with the exception of a couple of Klehms, they are good growers. I believe they were hybridized in Illinois and have all weathered our Indiana winters well.
