6 years agoLOL Sherry on Mr. Daniels.......I've not tried that many of the SC daylilies, and right off the top of my head the only one I can think of now is Spacecoast Irish Illumination. A pretty thing that in my conditions does best in part shade..........Maryl

Comments (52)Mantis, I did miss your question. Snidely Whiplash was hybridized by Mike Georges of Canada. I don't know much about him. We have heard him speak a couple of times. He has similar tastes to mine--teeth, eye and edges, and watermarks. We didn't buy Snidely Whiplash directly from him but we got it at the auction at the Can Am in 2016. I bet it is isn't available in the U. S., but I haven't looked. Mike maintains a website. His garden is called Quintessential Daylilies. That's really all I know except that buying Snidely Whiplash was a good idea. It's fertile and looks as if it likes it here. Nancy...See MoreU daylilies 2018

Signet: I like the purple Hanson, Utopia.........Nancy: Bob and I agree on the hot oranges. We both like to sizzle. Avedon: I like that Uncle Henry of Oz.

Comments (3)Debra, can it really be that time of the year already? Say it isn't so....oh well. Well, I don't generally count buds but I do notice which are best. This inspired me to go check a few and see what I had more or less. Every year my winner is Purple Riot with 5 branches on almost every scape and 5-7 buds per branch or 25-35 buds total. [the mistaken AHS site claims it has 5 buds on 5 branches LOL. I sent them an email today to challenge that and offer a picture. Spiritual Corridor, with up to 20 buds on most scapes. New this year. Russian Rhapsody just slightly less than SC. It's best year ever, an old Munson. No clump shot, unfortunately. Always reliable, more buds than usual. Vintage Wine, the clump in front had 3 way branching and 15 or so buds. Another old Munson. It always performs well, this was a bit better than usual. Acquire the Fire, around 12-15 per scape, 3-way branching. Prairie Blue Eye, another oldie, had 15 on 3 way branching on a couple of scapes, 10 on others. Many of my high performers of past years-Prismatic, Karen's Curls & a couple of others-only had about 10 this year. Brad...See MoreBest Yellow Daylilies of the 2018 Season
Comments (41)Thank you for liking my seedling! It is still too new to judge its merits but it certainly has potential. Wow, looking back at this thread again, I see some gorgeous garden shots! I am drooling over all this loveliness. Sherry, though Stella D'oro flowers maybe plain, your placement of it among the hostas and heucheras is perfection! It elevates this daylily to first class and showcases its flowers and foliage beautifully! Julia, I love that combo of Enter Laughing with the purple coneflowers in the foreground and the purple flowers in the background. Wow! Too lovely for words. Celeste, Cheddar Cheese is just marvelous in that group shot! I also love your combo of Living in Amsterdam with the blue clematis next to it and the coral daylily in the background. Wow! Nancy, LOVE the gold shade on Tidewater Elf and the beautiful poly It's Miller Time. Kate, your NOID is just spectacular! I love the pic with it blooming in the foreground and the other daylilies with their blooms popping in the background. It is like a sea of blooms!...See MoreDebbieON zn4-5

6 years agoHere are the SPACECOAST daylilies I grow:
SPACECOAST FREAKY TIKI: I have had it for two years and the verdict is still out on whether or not I like it. It is vigorous and reblooms. It went from three fans to 8 fans in a year.
SPACECOAST THORNY DEVIL: I received this plant as a single fan. It took a year to settle in. This past summer was its second full year and the fan was huge and at the end of the season, I had three fans.
I also grow SPACECOAST STARBURST, but I guess I haven't taken a recent picture of it It grows well, but the bud count is rather low.

6 years agolast modified: 6 years agoWe grow quite a few of the Spacecoast daylilies.
Spacecoast Better Late didn't like our climate so it left the garden.
Spacecoast Blood Diamond hangs in there.
Spacecoast Brazen Bandit is planted in a bad spot and will soon be moved (when we get rid of enough daylilies to find it a new spot for it).
Spacecoast Color Scheme grows like crazy. It is a small-flowered one.
Spacecoast Golden Thimble is a small flowered one.
We photographed Spacecoast Grape Biter in a friend's garden.
Spacecoast Lemon Whiskers is a superb yellow.
Spacecoast Shellcracker has amazing color, but the sepals are often not very nice.
Spacecoast Thorny Devil doesn't increase much but blooms reliably every season.
We love the rich color of Spacecoast Velvet Valentine.
That's all I have good pictures of.

6 years agolast modified: 6 years agoSpacecoast Seashells ....... I almost lost this one last spring with the sitting water that kept freezing and thawing . Hoping to see it has recovered this spring .
I also grow Spacecoast Starburst
and remember being so stoked about adding this one to my gardens years ago. Many daylilies and many more moments of being excited adding new plants since then , this one still makes me happy.
I added Spacecoast Sharp Tooth and Spacecoast Spice Girl last season but late in the season so really looking forward to seeing them bloom this year . The next Spacecoast I would like to add is Spacecoast Frances Busby .

6 years agolast modified: 6 years agoLori: I like SC Tigertail Tango. A nice orange patterned UF.......I did run across another Spacecoast daylily. When I saw it's picture I thought it would be more on the orange side. In person the red is definitely the predominant color.

6 years agoDaylily99 - I'd love to see your seedlings from SC Francis Busby. I grow that one, and it does very well here.
SC Francis Busby is a good rebloomer.
SC Ojo Rojo is short, but was a super performer last summer.
SC Night Vision was new, and only one of the two scapes flowered. I hope it made it through the winter, since I planted it late in the fall.
