7 years ago

last modified: 7 years ago

Hi everyone . I am writing to inquire if anyone here still grows the daylily "Foxhaven Annie" and if they have an image of it that perhaps I can use to try to determine if the daylily I bought as Foxhaven Annie is actually Foxhaven Annie .It is not easy to find an image of this daylily and I wrote to Dave Bowman early this spring asking if he had an image of it I could use but never got a reply.

I found an image of FA from an old post on Gardenweb (Brad KY posted it ) but dont just want to take the image without asking ( see this link..... http://forums.gardenweb.com/discussions/2809534/fantastic-f-daylilies.

Any and all help is much appreciated .Thanks

Will The Real Inca Red Drop Please Stand Up

Ronny - I'm not a food critic, but I'd describe the big red ones as mild with a complex flavor, something like a cross between citrus, berries, and lovage. Quite tasty. I was actually thinking earlier that if I had to name them, it might be something like "Inca (I'm sure it's a cross) Loves (short for lovage) Fruit (citrus and berries)." I haven't had a chance to taste IRD yet, so no idea how close the flavors are. Brian - Thanks so much. I'm glad one is the IRD. I'm actually thinking of overwintering mine. At least I can be sure I wont be late getting it started next year. Lol.

I think it is more circular than that. Suppose you never had a Houzz account. When they converted GW to Houzz, you were automatically converted to Houzz. So when you tried to confirm your GW account, it said there was already a member by that name, and proposed to call you "username_gw". Even those who had prior and separate Houzz accounts were running into the issue. I messed up somehow trying to confirm my GW account, but managed to get in with my Houzz user name, which shows in my private profile. So I did what was suggested and put my old GW name in the public profile.

Will the real "Sugar Pear" please stand up!

The original sugar pear was the Zuckerbirne of Germany. There was also a very old variety called Sugar. More recently that nickname has been given to various varieties but it is not a variety of pear per se. Maybe some Germans were the ones giving the nicknames. It seems like in the south its Ayers that is sugar, and in the other parts of the country its Seckel.

Proves my point. They may stay different then. Which is a nice thing. The one I have looks mostly like yours on the right. This is the mother plant that I got the yellow pup from. If you are a Agave collector like me, I have found Mountain Crest Gardens a good source for Agave and Mangave plants. Rare and very good prices. They are very small starter plugs but most grow very fast.

Brad, thank you so much for the permission to use the images and also for the extra images. I am writing to the person I bought the plant from and if you agree I will share these images with him so that if he still has any of the plant left that he sold to me as Foxhaven Annie , he can do some searching and find out what it really is . I will be doing the same .

Again , many thanks for your kindness.
