Quote of the day: How come you never see a headline like, ” Psychic wins lottery!”
Sorry, I have to post my best ever Indian Giver photo again, couldn’t help myself.
Ice Carnival is still growing in the garden here. I have considered removing it but, then it proceeds to show off when alot of my other daylilies are winding down.
Itza Pink Teddy has been a good performer for me, it has rebloomed. Last season was not its best. The same thing can be said about alot of my daylilies last season.

IMPERIAL GREEN PIGEON has been moved to the G's since it is actually GREEN IMPERIAL PIGEON.
IN HIGH REGARD: I love everything about this flower. It is a clean lavender with a striking green throat.
INCA PUZZLE: A Petit that blooms above the foliage in my garden.

2 years agoINDY SHOCKER: The hardest daylily to get an accurate photo of. The petal color is darker than this. Slow increaser.
IRON WARRIOR: A Bennett intro. It is a large bloom 6.5 inches.
ISABELLE ROSE
Isle of Patmos
IT'S THE RAGE: Second year in the ground. I'm hoping that it is taller this year. I do like the teeth.
That is all for me.

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 MoreP and Q daylilies 2022
Comments (20)Sherry, your Pizza Crust is always so impressive. I have it and it does not give me that kind of explosion. I rarely photograph it. Debra, Picasso's Intrigue is stunning in that photo. And you got a good shot of Private Reserve-it is so hard to get that kind of no splotch picture. Pink Lemonade Party is such a pretty pink. Brad, I agree that seedling is a "look at me" kind of plant! I still have Priscilla's Rainbow because it is such a good plant and it really is a looker in a clump. David, Proper Stranger is pretty and at that size probably really stands out. I like Passing Fancy as well. Nan, Papa's Goose looks good in your photo. I have debated that one but have not yet convinced myself I really need it! Still enjoying everyone's posts when I can!! So nice to see them on these dreary winter days!!!

Comments (23)Steve - That's a great shot of Ram! I grew it for seven or eight years in a pot, and it was always impressive. Here are more of my R's: Roaring Rapids Rose Sensation had a lot of splotchy flowers on the original blooms, but the rebloom flowers were very nice. Rosie With a Ring bloomed for the first time in my garden last year. I look forward to seeing this one at clump strength in the future. Rosy Rhino is the parent of my intro, Dearest Valentine. Rouen Cathedral is a great late bloomer, and very tall. With last year's cooler temps, Royal Cypher's eye and edge looked more blue than the usual purple. It had never looked like this before Royal Invitation looked so pretty on rebloom. This one has really impressed me with its flowers, multiplying and pod setting. It's taller than the registered 22 inches too. Scapes were 24-26 inches here last season. Royal Jester is an excellent late bloomer that sometimes reblooms. Ruby Lipstick has still not recovered from grub predation. I miss my big, healthy clump of it. Two Ruby Lipstick seedlings: Debra...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 More

2 years agoI'm not fond of the orange ones, but that Indian Ripple would definitely find a place here. I like In High Regard and one of my goals this coming season will be to find a nice lavender like this or perhaps something with an edge on it. The IGP freebie is great too, but when I tried to look it up in the database I end up seeing Pink-Necked Green Pigeon which just makes me forget everything else I've seen today.
I like the color pattern on Isle of Patmos but have a couple like it already, so here is Isle of Capri. My best yellow at one time (my only yellow). I planted it really close to Starsearch (a light yellow) when my garden map was out of date and when it skipped a year I was left wondering what happened to it. Luckily, the next year sorted everything out and I fixed my map and now I'm wondering how to separate the two. Enough already, Just show me the *&^%$ pics.
Italian Kaleidoscope was new to me last year.

2 years agoDavid - Green Imperial Pigeon has such a unique look. That's a lucky mistake, I think.
Sherry - I always love your photos of Indian Giver and Itza Pink Teddy!
Maryl - What a gorgeous photo of Indian Ripples.
Here are my I's:
I Lava You
I Remember You
Ice Cream Emperor - I've always loved this near white because it opens so well on cool mornings.
I'm Gonna Love You Through It - This one is so striking, but it's a slow multiplier.
Integrated Lotistics
Indian Ripple
Infinity & Beyond
Insider Trading and Inviting Romance
Irresistible You

2 years agoSherry, that shot of Indian Giver is gorgeous! Indian Ripple is also beautiful. Amazingly enough, it is an orange that we don't have, probably because it is a diploid. Infinity and Beyond is another that caught my eye. The name bugs me, though. I think it should be 'To Infinity and Beyond'. Anyway, thats what Buzz Lightyear said in Toy Story.
Here are some of our I's.
Here is a close-up of I Lava You. We can't wait to see this at clump strength.
Impassioned is an exciting one--normally more bitone than this picture shows.
Irish Vampire Fangs almost died its first year, but now it's doing fine. I don't love the color though. I think it's a bit muddy. This photo shows it better than it really is.
Isla Morada is a southern bred that hasn't done very well here. It was purchased because of the bubbly colored edge (which you can't really see in this photo because of the recurve of the petals). I prefer less recurve on petals.
That's all for me.Nancy

2 years agoSherry fantastic Indian Giver! Itza Pink Teddy always cheers me. In High Regard, Indian Ripple, Isle of Capri, Infinity and Beyond & I Lava You are all outstanding.
Ikebana Star was planted late last fall and put on an impressive show for only having a couple of fans.

2 years agoSherry, don't apologize for that amazing picture of Indian Giver! Love it! David, I like In High Regard. I got it in a trade locally at the end of summer and look forward to it! I also like Inca Puzzle. Maryl, Indian Ripple is so pretty! Debra, I always like Integrated Logistics but what a mechanical sounding name for a pretty flower.
Ice Carnival
Impetious Fire which had its best season ever this year. Very reliable and generally a good bloomer.
Here's my Indian Giver Clump.
Impetiousity. Slow to increase, mediocre amount of blooms.
