Remembering Rose had its ffo yesterday. It will be my latest late, unless Ruffled Strawberry Parfait decides to scape. I don't know why the photo is on top of my text. I had the curser underneath. Houzz Twilight Zone!

Regal Finale has one more bud.

Everything You Desire had its best bloom of the season today. This is a rebloom.

Divas in Diamonds has put up yet another rebloom scape. It never rebloomed any of the years I grew it in a pot. I've been quite impressed with its rebloom ability.

Tiffany Shade, a late bloomer, is the only Hanson plant that's ever disappointed me. It's never been the registered height, and the blooms are always in the 4 inch range, rather than the registered six. It's on 13 inch scapes this season.

Black Panther has one more bud on the original scapes, but there's an instant rebloom scape that should start blooming in a few days.

Innocent Discovery had another very nice bloom today. The cooler temps are bringing back the darker colors.

Old Time Italian has bloomed as a double the past two days.

Debra,

I still love EVERYTHING YOU DESIRE. Since it is a Petit, I am always afraid that it will bloom in the foliage for me. It is tough to resist because the color is so rich. I also love INNOCENT DISCOVERY. I had never heard of that one.

OT - Reblooming daylilies
Q
Comments (12)
Kim, I grow alot of daylilies, am as crazy about them as I am about roses. One of my very favorites is BEAUTIFUL EDGINGS, its an old one, but still had a couple of blooms on it today [Sept. 3]. Folliage is great, blooms its head off and is very tall. Its a creamy yellow with a pinkish edging. It should be easy to find and is one of my favorite lilies. I just bought some Happy Returns this year - they are still in pots but this lily has a good reputation for reblooming. Dont think its as tall as Beautiful Edgings. Daylilies do not bloom as much as roses, but when they do and are combined with roses, they are gorgeous. Another good bloomer is the white Joan Senior - its another oldie. Bloomed lots for me this year. I still have a few blooming, which is amazing for this time of year - Contra Dance, a mini, Purple Pashmina and an unknown gift, a pink one, plus a few others I cant recall. Like other perennials, they have their time to shine and then they leave the stage for other bloomers - purple salvia farnicia is a super bloomer for me and returns every year. I have a clump that has been blooming all year. Blue Plumbago is another bloomer that loves the heat. "Fireworks" gomphrena was new for me this year and its tall, although a bit floppy, but blooms constantly. Lantana is always a dependable bloomer. Judith

If so, let them grow on the scape as long as the scape is good and green below the prolif. If you're lucky they will form little roots at the base if not, I add a little rootone to the prolif when I cut it off( I always leave about 2" of scape below and above the the prolif) and put it in a pot. I usually have about a 75% or so success rate getting them to grow in pots. I keep them in light shade and keep them moist not wet. I have had blooming size plants by the next year but that depends totally on how big the prolif grows before leaving the momma. I've got 2 prolifs on my Wild Irish that I got this Spring that are huge and i'm tickled pink about this. They(the scapes) have seed pods so they will grow on the scape until I havest the seeds. I have had to remove the prolifs when they were tiny because the scape died too quick. When they are this little, it is really hard to get them to start roots. So, the longer they stay on the healthy scape the better. I had about 30 plants of Plum Perfect in the summer of 2005. I harvested around 75 prolifs from these plants that summer. I have not had a prolif on them since. I have no idea why these plants did this, I wish I did. Heres a photo showing multiply prolifs on one scape and them blooming on the scape. I was amazed!

Thanks David! Everything You Desire is only 25 inches tall and blooms just above the foliage here. It overwintered well. and we did have multiple days of zero temps here last winter. The color is rich and unusual. Innocent Discovery is a Holley intro. It also overwintered well here in a raised bed, but I don't know how it would do farther north.

I like Last Chance for Romance, Innocent Discovery and Everything You Desire are my picks today. We didn't like Tiffany Shade either. The flower was small for us too. It was a good increaser though. It left the garden several seasons ago.

Hoosier Nan - The only reason I keep Tiffany Shade is that it's a late bloomer, and it does bloom later than most of my lates. It lost fans last winter, so it is a bit tender.

Everything You Desire and Diamonds and Divas are my favorites today. EYD height wouldn’t be a problem for me here. Last Chance for Romance looks good, nice to have lates not in the yellow family

Sherry - It's funny but I don't have many actual late yellows.

Your picture of Diamonds for Divas (very pretty) sure does not look like the registration picture, but we all know how those pictures are pumped up.

Debra, that is interesting! It’s seemed to me most of the lates around here were some form of yellow, good to hear you don’t have that. Right now my latest is Citrina thunbergi, hope I spelled that correctly, it’s yellow and just sending up scapes for the past two weeks.

Everything You Desire is my top pick this time. It's a great color. Regale Finale is on my long list with your recommendation. It might be a nice follow up to Mary's Baby in the purple department..............Maryl

Hard to pick a favorite. The rich color of Everything You Desire is beautiful but like David indicated many Petit intros come in short and that is why I eliminated so many over the years. Petit grows in Florida, right?

Dick - I got the name wrong. Diamonds for Divas is the name of a Peitit, which I've never grown. The name of the Davisson cultivar that I do grow is Divas in Diamonds. The names are similar, and my old brain often retrieves the earlier Petit name because they are so similar. I've now fixed my mistake.

Julia - Petit started out in Canada, then moved to Florida. Now he's retired and has sold his garden to a new owner. After two bad winters here, Everything You Desire has bloomed above the foliage at 24 inches, rather than 25 inches. After a mild winter, scapes were 25 inches.

Sherry - I think what David and Julia are implying is if the blooms are just above the foliage normally, they would likely be in the foliage farther north. Yellow is my least favorite daylily color, so most of the lates I buy are in my favorites colors: purple, pink, and red.

I like Divas in Diamonds and Everything you desire. Very pretty today, Debra. wish we had cool weather but it will likely be October although they are making noises about it being cooler the first part of August...If it is, September will make up for it.

kay - We've had several days this week with highs in the high 80s and nights in the high 60s. Next week some low 80s are in the forecast. It's not the ususal end of July-beginning of August weather. But I like it.

What a great group of Last Chance or Romance! As if the flowers decided to informally pose. I like the white midrib.

Mantis - I did think the blooms were posing on Last Chance for Romance. I took several photos of that clump from different angles.
