Best Budded Daylilies of 2020
Comments (58)Updating some of my bud counts based on bud scars: August Frost x Winter's Angel has overtaken the yellow seedling as my No. 1 bud king with 47 buds. I think it's done bud building now, but we'll see. The yellow seedling turned out to have 41 buds, and Seedling "Leonard" finished with 34. August Frost X Winter's Angel -47 Destined to See x Back Scratcher Seedling - 41 Leonard - 34 Debra...See MoreBest Budded and Branched Seedlings of 2021
Comments (10)Brad - Thank you, Brad for sharing your best budded seedlings! I especially like the yellow one. Are the So Lovely kids later bloomers? My top budded seedlings are not my prettiest ones either. I would say most of the ones I grow average 11-13 buds. It's a rare and wondrous thing when they get 30 or more buds. I do fertilize my seedlings with compost and regularly water them. I think this was my prettiest seedling this season: Razor Sharp X Spacecoast Night Vision in the shade when temps were cool. And here's the same seedling in the sun when temps were a little warmer. That seedling had only five buds the first year it bloomed. Last year it had 8-9. This year it leaped in performance. The best scape had 23 buds, but it blasted before it started blooming. The next best scape had 17 buds. The other four scapes had 11-13 buds. So don't give up on your newer seedlings. Some of them take longer to show better bud counts. I was happy that this one had instant rebloom this year on two scapes. Debra...See MoreBest Red Daylilies of 2021

Comments (16)Debra, WOW Wow! on that first seedling!! Amazing looking flower. Congratulations on some nice seedlings. Nancy, I like your Ruffled Strawberry Parfait x Extreme Tangerine seedling. It is very eye-catching! As for me, toothies are just coming into favor with me. At first I was undecided if I liked them or not but they grew on me. Now I like them quite a lot and the few I acquired this year came late and did not bloom for me because they came from a warmer climate where they had already bloomed. I'm looking forward to next year to see what they will do. These are all I have that bloomed: Absolute Ripper, brand new and a huge bloom on a tiny plant Once and For All, also brand new and didn't have time to get very 'toothy' a toothy seedling of mine, color needs improvement Violet Predator, also brand new and it was late summer/early Fall when it bloomed so too cool for there to be teeth Wild Hair Vampire Fish Thistles and Thorns Ruckus...See Moreshive
