B daylilies 2018
Comments (52)Thanks for the info daylily99 . I tried searching it but only found one called Blue Rondo ala turk on NGA , Found the info on Blue Rondo on the AHS site this morning .....Just wonderful. Sure wish I could find that one up here . Love it !!!!! Out of all the pretties on this page it leapt out at me ....See MoreH daylilies 2018, third time is the charm?
Comments (47)I will search for an article I wrote several years ago, I think it was for the AHS robin regarding overwintering in pots. The last two winters, I have been lazy and just left the pots out with no protection, two winters ago, we had good snow, and everything was fine. Last winter, we did not have much snow and I was worried, but I was very lucky and did not lose anything. This winter I again left the pots unprotected, but it has been extremely cold, but hopefully all that snow came in time! However, I would not recommend doing that. I don't do that with my more expensive plants. I will look for that article. Brad, Although water does not cost anything here, we are on a well, and I do not water. I have bought several plastic kid swimming pools, and fill the swimming pools with rainwater. The pots sit or are rotated in the swimming pools. I collect extra rainwater in barrels from the shed and garage roofs, from spring on, as we do get some pretty droughty summers here as well....See MoreX Y Z daylilies 2018
Comments (17)David, I do feel like it's Mask of Time also; glad you agree. Yazoo Wild Violet does well here; not exceptional, but well. Bud counts are rarely impressive here but YWV has an average count for my zone. Not so impressive that I wrote it down but if it was shabby in that respect I would have noted it. The scapes are on the short side. The plant does seem to bloom for a long time if I remember correctly. And the color in my garden seems more blue-purple than what I've seen on the database....See MoreTop Bud Numbers for Daylilies 2018
Comments (33)Debra all your bud kings / queens are beautiful too! Love that August Cherry pic! And always love the bicolor / bitone look! I don't know if I am gonna count, my days of 35-40 buds are gone, they are so crowded, and I have never had so few buds on plants as this year. Maybe Lullaby Baby as it builds buds and kinda always is among my best. And Isle of Patmos looks pretty well-budded. I can name the worst though, Berry Delicious - 1 scape with 2 buds, and Nature's Crown - 4 scapes with 1 bud per scape (it dropped all the others as it usually does)...See Moreceleste/NH

6 years agoMABOU - Mostly very good here, but it does melt by 5 pm on a hot day.

MICHIGAN MAGIC
MIDDLE OF NOWHERE
MIDNIGHT IN PARIS
MIDNIGHT RAIDER - MUST use this to hybridize with - fragrant, 6 branches, 40+ buds and reblooms
MIDSUMMER A WOMAN'S WORK - I felt I just had to register this because it's a reblooming bud builder ... goes from 20 to 60 buds, 3 to 5 branches and can bloom for up to 3 months - until frost. That being said, it's an uninspiring orange. I probably should have just kept it for hybridizing with. I'm learning.

6 years agolast modified: 6 years agoFound a few more M's
Mokan Butterfly
A golden oldie Miss Jessie
Miss Victoria .....this one can only be used for hybridizing as it is not recognized by the AHS as it is not registered with them . It is a hybrid sold by Bressingham Blooms and therefore if using to cross with something must be called a "seedling "
Miss Scarlett
Miss Victoria ......another Bressingham Blooms plant
Mary Lena , this one does alright but would probably do better in more sunMardi Gras Beads
Magic of Oz.........love this plant !
