Daylilies & hardy hibiscus
blue23rose said:Agreed! I don't pay a lot of attention to the pistils and stamen compared to the color of the bloom. I have noticed different colors of pistils and stamen, but had never given a thought to the 'complete self' daylily.

After looking at all of my pictures, I think Buttered Popcorn may be the only one that I have like that.


I think the definition also assumes that the throat is the same color as the petals, which are the same color as the pistils and stamens...no eye or watermark or halo or edge.

It's pretty pathetic that I have posted this thread and have been growing several complete selfs for years, including Buttered Popcorn!

Now that I know what the devil I'm looking for, I have several:

Star Dream (since 2007)


Buttered Popcorn (since 2011)


Big Time Happy (since 2015)

Happy Returns (since 2013, although a green throat might disqualify it)

Treasure Room (since 2015, although lighter midribs might disqualify it)


Savannah Debutante (since 2016)

Seaside Scallop (since 2015)

So...I'm like D'Oh! D'Oh! D'Oh! Blinking
Hardy hibiscus are a hobby, but daylilies are an obsession.
