V daylilies 2022
Please show us your V daylilies. I am sorry to say I have none 😳
Quote of the day:” A bargain is something you dont need at a price you can’t resist.”
Can’t help myself….. my daughter is getting a new puppy next week. His name is Remy, he is on the right. He is a smooth coat collie, his sister on the left is a rough coat collie like Lassie.

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 MoreNoid daylilies 2022
Comments (5)Sherry, your noid is very pretty! Kate, those are nice yellows too. It's pretty hard to identify the yellows--so many of them. Like Kate, we don't obsess about the names of the Noids. If we like them, we keep them. If not, we sell or give them away. Many gardeners don't care if they have a name. Our first Noid came from the Region 2 Summer Meeting back in 2015. It was a tiny little fan that broke off a bigger fan. We took it. It seemed to bloom late for us (it was very small then), but now it doesn't. I believe it might be Janet's Magic. We give the Noids a garden name. This is Region 2 Orphan. I have posted this before. Somebody on the forum thought it is Opera Elegance. We call it PC Yellow Red. PC are the initials from the person we got it from. It's a nice daylily and will stay in our garden whether or not it has a name. Since we even breed with it, if I can track down Opera Elegance, I will buy it and compare the two. We bought the last name with no name. It is a late blooming tall and small diploid. The seller thought it might be Hungarian Paprika Late. It's just new so I don't have many pictures of it. I have a couple more of which one is a beautiful red, but I don't have a picture of it. If I find one, I will post it. It's a modern one. The seller sent it instead of the one we asked for. The name he gave us doesn't seem to fit. 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 More

2 years agoSherry: How cute are those puppies. I had a friend who was a huge fan of Collies. Said they were the best. Good luck with being a new puppy grandmother.........David: You have quite a few V's that stand out. Vision Seeker is lovely and Vesuvian is a deep velvety red that looks rich........I have only one V and it was new last year. Short scapes on initial blooms. We will see what it does this year:

Next are my VTs. All are extra late, bud range from 15-40. Good height too. Using some of them for crossing, hoping for well budded lates.VT Autumn Fires, has more buds than any plus it is a bud builder. Blooms 2 or more months. 40 buds on some.
VT Bridal LILAC
VT Fondly Kin
VT Rose Rosy
VT September Star
VT Sophie is a bit more orange than this photo.
VT the Last Melon, also super amount of buds. Also increases quickly. It is a hard color to capture but this photo is about right.
VT Sophie and the Last Melon.
That's all.Brad

2 years agoSherry - Both puppies are very cute! I love all collies and shelties, probably due to watching Lassie as a kid and playing with my grandmother's border collie.
Brad - VT Bridal Lilac appeals to me, and the clumps of VT Sophie and Last Melon are very impressive.
Velvet Throne is a dark red with a large 7-inch bloom. It always rebloomes.
Victorian Garden Heaven's Applause throws lots of intricate patterns. It used to be one of my best performers until the neighbor's tree grew very tall and now gives it too much shade.
Victorian Garden Emerald Breeze holds its color on the hottest days.
Violet Victory is another one that never increases and is short becaue of the grubs. It does set seed like crazy though, and I may have some seedlings from it bloom this year.
Violet Sabrewing has lovely colors. I've been battling grubs on this one for years. Scapes were finally a little taller last year.

2 years agoI love those puppies. Our Riley is an Old Time Scotch Collie. Collies are so gentle and sweet.
My picks of the daylilies today is VT Autumn Fires. It sounds like a good one for the end of the season. I also like Victorian Gardens Heaven's Applause. I also like Vision Seeker.
Here are my Vs.
Here's our Venus Fly Trap. It's a pretty bloom and does well for us, but it is not fertile for us. We have gotten a few seedlings with it as pollen parent, but none as pod parent.
Warmer Climes was new last year. It was a bonus from Mike Derrow, the hybridizer. His plants do well here.
Wickedly Wild and Wonderful never performs as well as its published stats suggest it should, but still, it comes up every year and blooms well.
Wide Wide World is a great grower. However, I am never happy with the photos of it. They just don't show how luscious the color is.
Wild and Wonderful is not a great grower for us and doesn't make much of a landscape impact. The photo would be better, though, if I took out the dead flowers.
That's all for me.Nancy
