Great thread for updating, Zoia Thumbs up
It's always interesting to see the performers from other areas. Nice looking seedlings too. Strange year for the daylilies. Long cold spring, extremely dry, record number of days over 90 degrees and I don't water the beds. There just never seems to be enough hours in the day and being on our own well the garden is on it's own if it's dry. So it's no surprise to me that 3 of my top 10 are my own intro's, they are bred to be on their own Smiling
Tossed By the Waves, Dimes in the Jukebox and Feel the Thunder all had their typical great branching, set pods and bloomed well over a month.



Pawprints on My Heart started the season off with a mass of open blooms every day.


Hidden Cameras, this one is always a good performer and throws an occasional poly bloom.


Two pleated forms that are always covered in blooms, Van Gogh's Ear and Mercury Lounge.


Quicksilver Girl, does a little pleating as well. A shorter plant than many of Curt's with great branching and bud count.


Willow Dean Smith, right along the path as you enter the garden. Delicate, feminine look with the soft ivory edged in pink. Also throws poly blooms frequently.
