L daylilies 2022
Let’s see your L daylilies today, feel free to post yours!
Quote of the day. My doctor asked if anyone in the family suffered from mental illness. I said, ”No, we all seem to enjoy it. ”
Little Showman is a lovely small daylily. Too bd its been slow to establish.
Laura Harwood is a favorite late bloomer. This clump was huge. It got divided, just hoping it does well this season.
Lavender Stardust is a great older daylily, has been a great performer. It got moved and hoping it does well this season.
Little Light of Mine
Lollipop Kisses was a bonus plant that has done reasonably well. Last season wasnt its best.
Lord of Rings
Little Jetsetter is another lovely small daylily.
Luscious Kiss, I love this bonus plant. photos never do this beauty justice, its one you have to see.
Little Grapette, yes I still have a clump of this old daylily. It is still here because its a bloom machine.

2 years agolast modified: 2 years agoAnother quip that left me chuckling Sherry........I like what I see on Lollipop Kisses; a melon base with bright raspberry center. If the colors stayed that way it would be luscious. Look forward to seeing more of it this season..... Your Laura Harwood always does you credit........I have one "L" and I've shown it often. It is a wonderful yellow (and I love warm yellows). Colorfast/sunfast good producer, stout scapes and hardy. It has turned out to be my favorite yellow thus far. I recommend it if you can find it:

X, Y and Z daylilies 2022
Comments (15)Coming late to the party again. We just got back from the ADS region 2 Winter Symposium. We had a good time, especially after my job was done. I was the registrar for the event. I think that those of us who are hybridizers need to focus on names that start with X, Y, and Z so that we have more to post in this section. The X might be hard to come up with, but Debra has done her part with Zuzu's Treasure. Beautiful! I must admit none of my pictures are from 2021, but I wanted to post something. Yauhannah Lake performs very well for us. You're Fired is a great grower. Zombie Dust often is inconsistent in pattern, but it's a big flower that is a little diffferent from so many other patterns that seem to have a rather muddy lavender petal color. It was hybridized by a friend in Indianapolis. That's all for me. 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 MorePurple Daylilies of 2022
Comments (31)Jean Deaver's Dream was very disappointing here (smallish blooms, slow growth and bud count)--just something to consider for anyone from the North yearning for it. Of course, sometimes cultivars do better farther north with snow cover. (Or they might perform in 6B--substantial difference between here and North Carolina or Kentucky.) Moonlight Sail also tenderish weak here, but it's still out there. Silver Sword is nice, but slow to multiply here. Lydia's Regal Robe looked good this year, though bud count still modest. Free the Captives has purplish tones early in the morning, moves to reddish tones, and gradually becomes lighter. Vigorous and tall. The X Files is striking, but plant habit is a bit sprawling. Ashwood Dark Side may fit better as a deep red. Lost in Translation is quite short but a vibrant color. Definitely front row. Sultry Girls looked good this year....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 agoLol Sherry I think we all enjoy our madness to a degree. You always seem to get the greatest bonus plants and Luscious Kiss is no exception. If you are semi apologizing for Little Grapette I need to for pretty much every one I have!
Maryl Lisa Apps Sybrandt is lovely.
David Limelight and Lavender is simply wonderful.
Brad your lavenders are very nice. Lavender Dew is putting on a good show.
Lavender Blue Baby
Little Missy
Little Wine Cup had a relatively abysmal year. It is normally covered in blooms.
Luxury Lace another oldie.

2 years agolast modified: 2 years agoMore L's:
Lonesome Jaguar - This was the first year for it too bloom, and it did so well. It's a fast multiplier and a good rebloomer!
Lydia's Regal Robe has fantastic color, but it ticks me off because it never keeps its seed pods.
Little Mystic Moon is one of the few miniatures I still grow. I keep it because it has high bud count even when grown in part-shade.
Landon Lee was repeatedly attacked by grubs in recent years. Last season it started to recover.
Little LIght of Mine usually puts on a good show, but it barely bloomed last year. This was the first time ever it didn't rebloom. Grubs got to the roots of all but one fan.

2 years agoAll of these are beautiful, but I am drawn to Lillian's Thin Ice, which is odd because I don't usually go for the white ones. We got Luscious Kiss as a bonus too. It's a great little daylily. I love the eye on Ledgewood's Jumpstart.
Here are a few of ours.
I wish the red on Lady Stephanie Victoria Redding was more intense. It is a late bloomer.
Last Fool Standing is doing better now that it has been moved.
Last Man Standing is a great late bloomer.
Laughing Giraffe is new to the garden. Bob picked this one.
Lava Flow is one that will always stay in our garden. The brilliance of the color plus its early blooming make it a keeper.
Here is our Lemon Fringed Pastel.

2 years agoOoh, I didn't see Landon Lee earlier. How wonderful! Little Mystic Moon is cute.
I don't know why we keep this one. Probably because it is one of the few appliques we grow. I can't ever tell if the the color is lavender or tan. Lavender isn't my favorite color, but adding tan to it just makes it worse. We actually didn't choose this one. It came as another daylily. We ordered about 7 and all but two were mislabeled. You can be sure we never ordered from that nursery again. I guess I need to tell the name--Lighter Than Air.
Here's our Lillian's Thin Ice.
I just don't know about Lions and Tigers and Bears. We have had it for a couple years ad the first flowers were so pale I doubted it was correctly labeled. It has gradually gotten more color, but still doesn't have the solid color the picture in the database shows.
Lucky Draw languished in a bad spot for a while, but it has been moved and is looking a lot better.
That's all for me.Nancy

2 years agolast modified: 2 years agoI like that Little Showman and Laura Harwood as well as all of the lavender ones. But that Limelight and Lavender one is worth searching for to me.
A local hybridizer was downsizing and moving so they were selling off their inventory by the clump. I managed to get 10 for myself and also donated a bunch to a local community garden. I also snagged some small pieces of those while I was dividing and planting them for the local garden. What else could I do with them as they fell off the large clumps as I was dividing?
One man's trash . . . Here's my first bloom on Lady Neva after it skipped the first year. I could see replacing this with a better one, but until I do . . .
and one I picked up for myself, Lavender Handle Bars (I actually lost the tag on this one and contacted the seller with a pic and location where I think it was. Although I don't remember the name, he said this was most likely it. If you think it might be something else, I'm all ears . . . hmm, that might be a good name for a new one, "I'm All Ears". Maybe for a poly spider.)
Could probably replace this one with Limelight and Lavender (after several years of evaluation). Do people often replace their daylilies with better ones when they come along?sherrygirl zone5 N il thanked steve duggins(Z6a) - Central OhioMaryl (Okla. Zone 7a)
