B daylilies 2022
Let’s see your B daylilies today.
Quote of the day: I love being married. It is so great to find that one special person you want to annoy for the rest of your life.
Brocaded Gown, a delicate beauty.
Belle Cook blooming in a less than ideal spot.
Banshee Whisper has had great increase in my garden.
Baby Blue Eyes was a bonus. I like the blueish color, doesnt show well here.
Blue Beetle, I really like the bloom. It has been slow to increase.
Boy Crazy has been slow to increase here. I think I’ve moved it too many times.
Buzz Saw is my only toothy daylily.
Bela Lugosi was my bud king last season.
Bluegrass Memories benefits from afternoon shade here.
Buttered Popcorn is blooming in the shade with my hosta.
Before is a lovely early bloomer. it took last season off, this photo is from 2020.

D daylilies 2022
Comments (22)Dark Witch looks interesting. That clump of Double River Wye looks good in front of the Shasta daisy. Ideally, daylilies should be grown amidst other perennials, as Bennett did in his garden. Dance Again is one I haven't noticed before. Desire of Nations is an important hybridizing plant, but has been disappointing as a garden plant. Slow growth and late spring freezes are probably responsible for recent subpar bloom. Dream Sequence, vigorous and showy Dankie --limited bud count, but a softly alluring shade Darker Shade--darker and more purplish, but a difficult shade to capture Duel Zone --a nice bitone, though plant habit is not ideal Drums Along the Mohawk Dennis Russell --a nice plant, though not the quality of Glowing Quasar Dixieland Band has been a consistent and colorful later bloomer in recent years. Deep Dark Secret was nice this past year. The cream pink watermark of Dr. McGregor's Garden is very appealing. Dark Gethsemane --we shall see Drew Hoo looks very promising Dragon Nation is vigorous, used a lot by Mary Baker in hybridizing. Dirty Bastard Not my best picture of Daniel Howard Norris, but the best from this past year....See MoreM daylilies 2022
Comments (22)Debra, Mayan Warrior is a semi-evergreen tetraploid that blooms midseason. It has rebloomed for us. It's on the short side at 24 inches, but the 6 inch flowers are above the foliage. It has an average of 4 way branching and 20 buds but we have seen it as high as 30 buds. Its parentage is Pumpkin Prince X Gavin Petit. Muy Caliente! is named for Bob's fondness for Mexican food. At our favorite Mexican restaurant, we are always warned that the plates are 'caliente'. That is what inspired the name. It is taller at 36 inches with 3 branches and 16 buds. We have seen as many as 23 buds. While the bud count is not high, it produces many scapes. When we divided our clump, we pulled 23 scapes (I don't think I got them all). It also reblooms. It is mid late with 5 or 5.5 inch flowers (I can't remember). It is also a tet and is dormant. Its parentage is Apache War Dance X Sea of Cinders. Nancy...See MoreBest Budded Daylilies of 2022
Comments (15)Sherry - I was looking at this thread again and noticed your comment about daylilies with fewer scapes having more buds. This is something I've really noticed since I've been hybridizing. My seedlings tend to have more buds the first two-three years they bloom. Once they grow into large clumps, the bud counts go down. I think that's a good reason to divide large clumps into smaller divisions. Debra...See MoreOrange Daylilies of 2022
Comments (30)Santorini Sunset looks like a bright one. Muy Calliente looks very interesting. Oranges are probably the least popular color after yellow on auctions. People don't appreciate how vivid and varied they can be. This is the only pic I took of Bob Marley this year. It did not like the heat against that off-white wall. Spirit Fox looked good, though other oranges can be more vivid. Carrick Wildon is always a later bright one. Alabama Jubilee had a great year. So many oldies showed why they are classics. Krakatoa Lava Stop the Car--not a sizable clump yet, but certainly warrants a pause in one's gaze. Tahiti Sweetie --commands attention with height Mardi Gras Indian --very vivid Tropical Fruit Loops --I like this color. A sib of Mardi Gras Indian Heavenly Dragon Fire --a unique glowing color. Crintonic Fireball --excellent color. Too new to evaluate habit Indian Ripple --great display this year Holiday Party --showy in garden if you like doubles Lana Ishee --the older evergreen that Chris liked (and must have given me). It blooms reliably in a searing color Vitamin C --a good landscaper. The color itself is a bit dull close-up, but makes a bright spot. I have grown to like it. Made a long display. It looks best in sun, which we had a lot of last summer. Solar Fire --an older Webster, very large, plain but showy Heman Mean Green Tropical Fusion --very showy in the garden, even if the plant habit is not ideal. Nan showed this one for a few years....See Moredaylilybedmaker
2 years agoBEAUTY IN MOTION: A Bud Bennett pink. This is an early bloom as the sepals are pointed. They become more rounded as the season progresses.

Betty Benz: Is a diploid with tetraploid substance.
BIG HEARTED LADY: Another Bennett pink.

2 years agoNice B daylilies! I especially like Bass Gibson, Buddy's Black Lady, and Blueberry Breakfast.
Here are some of my B's.
I hope Bengali is hardy, but I have my doubts.
Big Bird's Friend is one of the super tall ones. We have several of those in yellow. I wish there was a bigger range of colors in the super tall ones.
Black Snake Moan was a bonus from Dan Bachman. Dan was always generous with bonus plants.
I like the velvety richness of the color of Blackbird's Song.
As you might guess, Bob loves Bob Marley. It is a great grower and prolific bloomer in our garden.
Brazilian Flamingo is new to the garden.
Broadway Sparkler is one of the larger of the Broadway series.
More to come . . .

Bucky Beaver is a late blooming toothy.
Buddy's Betsy is one of the earliest ones in our garden every season.
Here is Butter Pecan in a clump.
That's it for me.Nancy

Bela Lugosi. We had an incredibly hot dry summer.
Black Arrowhead
Blue Sheen
Blueberry Candy. Redid the area around it.
Bonanza had a great year as always. Such an old warrior.

2 years agolast modified: 2 years agoBass Gibson had an off year, as did many. There were some nice blooms, but a number of bad openings and shorter scapes; BG can be inconsistent, but was great the previous year. Brown's Ferry Peaches and Cream did nothing for me here. Oh, there were a few nice blooms, but just wouldn't establish and get beyond 10-inch scapes. Where in central Ohio are you located, Steve? I am generally wary of Brown's Ferry intros, after being burned a few times.
I wonder if you can say more about Blackbird's Song, Nancy. How quickly established, bud count, etc.
Boss Lady had a very good year.
Big Bang Theory has big blooms. Bud count could be higher.
Butter Cream always provides scenes for pics.
Belle Cook, despite its shortness, can wow.
Black Bird Sings (not to be confused with Blackbird's Song) could stand some shade. Here at Crintonic near noon.
Bridge of Sighs can have a nice flower, but would rather be farther south.
Blazing Saddles has the typical Hansen tall scape. If only it had a Hanson scape.
Blushing Escapade--long blooming glowing color on taller scapes.
Blessed Are the Meek. I decided to try this, though one person warned me it is not that vigorous.
Broken Chains, one of Karol's better ones here.
Butter Pecan in a clump that needs division. Scapes a bit shorter after those late spring freezes.
Birthday Wishes. Scapes less consistent here the past year, though not as short as this picture looks.
Blue Pink Beauty is in a part of the garden where it is difficult to photograph, but there is always something deserving of a picture.
Bubble Gum Twist has yet to make it out of the pot because I don't like the scapes. In the twilight of life, spaces in the garden go to only the most promising.
Blood Sweat and Tears --moderate increase
Buddy's Wild and Wonderful - a pic from 2020, when it was nicer. Early, which I like.
Bloom Where You're Planted --quite showy, though every bloom is not perfect. A great name.

2 years agoSorry I missed your question earlier Mantis. I am just south of Newark Ohio. I picked up BF P&C from Daylily Lane and they gave me 3-4 fans to get it started. I've been growing it since 2017 and its never missed a beat. Shortly after delivery:
I did not get a clump pic in 2021, but here it is in 2020.
