K daylilies 2020
Let’s see your K daylilies, I have none. I also know from previous years that there won’t be many photos posted. So, if you have no K daylilies, please post ONE favorite garden shot that includes daylilies. Quote of the day: “Going into a teen’s room is like going to IKEA. You pop in to take a look and come out with 4 bowls, 6 cups, a set of plates and some cutlery.”
My garden shot:
All oldies here, Wide Wide World, Pandora’s Box, a Pink noid and Surfer Girl hosta blooming. These are all in too much shade.

4 years agoPretty flower bed, Sherry! Kiwi Magic is very pretty, I don't usually care for doubles but it looks such a "tidy" form.
Kansas Kitten
I will show King Lamoni, although I think it is gone after my downsizing. Better looking than this photo shows, a fairly large flower, but short, just above the foliage.

2020 Any letter K’s
Comments (16)I've also had no luck getting Kniphofia to over winter even though I see it around sometimes in my area. Knautia macedonica - bees and butterflies like it. It will seed around a lot, and was good for me when this area was more of my wild prairie look. I've pulled a lot out and planted some up higher on the hillside because they can get rather weedy looking in a flower bed setting. Editing: So is Knautia the common name? Should this be under Scabious? I don't know now, but it's my only "K", lol....See MoreDaylilies With Stippling, Streaks or Stripes 2020
Comments (10)We don't have any spotted daylilies. We have one stippled one and two striped ones. Explosion in the Paint Factory is one everyone is familiar with. Pink Stripes is another well-known striped one. We are supposed to have another striped one, Augie's Unique Beauty. It has not done well for us (in fact, it almost died) and when it produced its one flower this past season, it was plain yellow. I read that Augie's Unique Beauty will revert to all yellow. I guess we will have to buy it again to get the striped one. The only stippled one we have is Dappled Dynamo. It is well named because it keeps on blooming (it's a bud builder). It's a small flower, nothing amazing but it keeps blooming late in the season. We do have one striped seedling. It is Iwanna Piranha X Horsing Around. We wish there was greater contrast between the two colors. That's all I have. Nancy...See MoreFavorite Miniature and Small Daylilies of 2020
Comments (20)Lilykate and Debra, thanks for the kind words about the seedling. Little Red Bantam (a great small, by the way) is a great parent. The first year I tried to set seed on it, it just wouldn't cooperate. The next year it set tons of pods. I don't know if it was more favorable weather or the maturity of the plant that made the difference. We have at least more more to register from it, maybe more. We had planned to register that one this year also, but I just can't get a good picture of it. It is violet purple with a velvety black overlay, the worst color to photograph, in my opinion. I will try again next season. Here are a few more seedlings. We hope that this one is a future intro. It's hard to see in the picture, but the edge is metallic. It's Daddy's Heart x Spacecoast Perfect Angel. This is Merry Moppet X (Little Red Bantam X Pinewood Light in the Darkness). Merry Moppet X Sprinkled with Springtime Possum Que Shane X My Little Tea Set Spacecoast Tiny Perfection X (Little Red Bantam X Heavenly Pink Fang) Spacecoast Color Scheme X Rosemary Mussar That's all for me.

That is a new one to me. Is the streaking stable over time?? utog, really nice shot of Krugerrand with the light steve I love the picture of Kanzi unfurling sunnywood, I have be thinking of add Key West and your photo really wants to order it peren, the flower on Kikuti is beautiful and different from others I have seen. nicholsworth, love your row of Krossas, can’t have to many old_dirt, I love your Komodo Dragon in the pot. If you take it out of the pot you could divide it and have 2 or 3, but it would take some to get big again mbug,that Kinba is stunning hosta_maker, it would be nice to see that seedling develop diane, your Kiwi looks like the one I had, which died out. I hope yours has a brighter future Sandyslopes, your photo of your KFM shows the soft coloring it has Laura, your KFM is just as lovely as everyone else’s debra...See Moresherrygirl zone5 N il

4 years agoHere are my K's.
This one is known as Kaskel's Best Edge. It is an unregistered daylily from Matthew Kaskel that has been used a lot in breeding. The plant is tender and on the puny side.
Kennesaw Crossfire has not reached clump strength yet, but it produces flowers with an amazing color. I still am not sure how hardy it will prove.
I bet you could guess that Bob picked Key West Sunset.
Kiss of Paradise is a southern that has done pretty well for us.
Knowledgeable Gnome is a small-flowered daylily.
That's all for me.Nancy

4 years agoNice ones. Sherry, your Pandora's Box looks like it is doing quite well in spite of the shade. Lots of nice ones Celeste. Your Karen's Curls looks more lavender; mine is more red. Nancy, tell Bob I like Key West Sunset. I'm not a huge orange fan, but it is the type I like.
Kent's Favorite Two
Kirsten's Corsage, one of my very favorites. I wish it would increase more.
Karen's Curls
That's all I have.
