Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Mars Attacks') |

Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Monocacy Summer Mist') |
Have Dormant Daylily Unusual Form / Spider Daylily |
from Pat Ball located at 79.32.5 from hybridizer site: MONOCACY SUMMER MIST Reed, 2006 - 42" EM 7" dor.dip. UF/cascade Soft cream yellow, dusted rose huge eye This distinctive bloom is a soft cream yellow, mostly obscured by the large pattern of stippled rose eye, outlining a very intense green throat. The form is a ruffled, gentle cascade. This seedling, out of Lola Branham, spent a couple of summers near the Monocacy River in Maryland with a friend, while I moved to Virginia. Couldn't be left behind forever! Very different. Fertile both ways. Parent of ALICE IN LONDONLAND (2015). |

Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Monterrey Jack') |
Have Dormant Daylily |
MI location Porch South West bed from archive.org: trimmerdaylily.com 2016 (Dan Trimmer, 1996). Tetraploid (Tetra Siloam Gum Drop X Tetra Wings of Chance) Garden visitors have been asking for Jack since its maiden bloom. I consider Monterrey Jack to be an extremely important color break in the tetraploid breeding of daylilies. We have so many wonderful purple and plum eyes and edges, but so few red eyes and edges. I know of no other large tet. flower with big, well defined, red eyes on clear yellow petals. Usually, color breaks come coupled with less than desired forms in the hybridizing world of daylilies. This is not at all the case with "Jack." Early in the morning he is flat opened, and throughout the day remains unchanged in color and crispness. First blooms exceed 6" with the last being over 5". Flowers are round and very circular with large ruffles that are edged with a wire of red surrounding about 1/2 of the petal. Sepals are blunt and rounded. Jack is the parent of red eyed, red picoteed, yellow and cream flowers of large size and beautiful form. When I moved to Florida from Long Island I was afraid that due to Jack's northern bloodlines he would not perform, so half came down during last summer, and the 2nd half after much northern chilling. Both grew well, but more chilling increased bloom size. Jack is early, dormant, about 24" tall, well branched with the usual branching consisting of two or three laterals and a terminal Y. Jack is a very good grower and increaser with dark green low arched foliage. If you want either a beautiful eye catching garden subject, or a hybridizing entry into red eyes and red edges I highly recommend MONTERREY JACK. Jack is probably my most important introduction to date. Many of his offspring are almost white with red eyes. |

Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Olfactory Evidence') |
Have Dormant Daylily |
Ordered df from Laura @twixanddud 8/31/23 NOTE: season very late received 9/18/23 There should be a SF+ in renovated area 50 exact location tbd from hybridizer website: OLFACTORY EVIDENCE Murphy, '07 - 38" Vla 6" dor.dip. Very Fragrant, creped lemon with cream edge, sunfast. Another in my series of very lates. This one will bloom in most gardens in September when few daylilies will. Opens well in cold weather. OLFACTORY EVIDENCE may not be the best name, but it aptly describes this flower. This very late lemon flower has a creped texture and a cream edge on hot days. There are very few daylilies that bloom this late, and the lemon color and crisp scent really attract people. Completely sunfast, with two branches, and 20 buds, and extended bloom. Fertile both ways with fragrant kids. Parentage: AFTER AWHILE CROCODILE X LOLA BRANHAM |

Next to PIKES PEAK this was "that unusual daylily" everyone wooed over. PICTOEE PRISM is not as tall as our other prisms, but she makes up for it with the strong plum picotte edge not seen on any of the other prisms. Being a dormant I suspect scape height will be much higher in the north. Fertile both ways. |

Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Purple Satellite') |
Have Dormant Daylily Unusual Form / Spider Daylily |
Ordered df from Laura @twixanddud 8/31/23 received clump 5+ fans 9/18/23 Planted in MI, SF potted for TX testing from archive.org: http://www.brianmahieu.com/day... Apr 2010 PURPLE SATELLITE Mahieu Diploid 96-164 W [(TRAHLYTA x ASTERISK )X BELLADONNA STARFISH] 33 M 11.5 NOC EXT lt FR 4 way branching 18 buds Spatulate Unusual Form with pinching and twisting action in the segments. Flower form is flat as a dinner plate and as large as one! A gorgeous violet with a purple blue band on the petals and a ruffled cream picotee on all segments! This diamond dusted bloom has a chartreuse throat and the petals display a micro-ruffled near bubbly texture -- this trait is prevalent in PURPLE SATELLITE's children. We are getting many gorgeous CLEAR purples from Purple Satellite. PS was absolutely the best parent for purple-blue spiders and UFs in the '01 seedling crop! BELLADONNA STARFISH (a full pod-sibling to TRIUNE BEING) has been a wonderful parent, and many of her children display this knobby edging and lighter picotee -- very uncommon in the Unusual Forms class. Very fertile pollen, reluctant pod parent, but I did not know it was nocturnal when I was testing it. Hit it at dusk, and you may ,well, get pods. Very vigorous grower/clumper though fans are not large. If you want to breed purple spider/UFs with purple blue eyes this is your parent, I can not stress this enough.. |
