Some of my new daylilies for you to see

[Carol Dee]

Stunning indeed! I could never pick a favorite.

Oh, they're beauties Cat! My favorite is the top one, I love the deep yellow throat and the ruffles. Have you named these yet?

Beautiful, @catjac1975! I think my favorite one is the first -- yellow and white would be startling in my garden. No, maybe it's the third one with its hem-stiched edges and blaze-of-yellow center. The last shot of your salmon daylily is certainly showing a keeper. I love that color and it shows well with my brickwork. Then, again, who could resist the gay colors of your (blue-toned) shades of pink. It brings a smile just looking at its bright colors dancing in the garden.

I guess I'm with Carol Dee! It's hard to pick a favorite.

No names yet they are just seedlings.

No names yet they are just seedlings.

Excuse my nose, but in my part of the world seedlings do not flowering and flowering plants are past the age of being called seedlings.

Well, I just went through and "liked" every one of them. I would like them 10 or 20 times, but only 1 like is allowed.

Cat how long does it take a seeding to flower for thr first time?

 

[catjac1975]

1-3 years for the first time. I have made gains with quicker blooms. I have seen a few evolve over time to a more lush bloom. It is probably 4-5 years before I split them. They go through several judging phase for what I will keep and what I will compost. Falling behind in that thus year with the selling. Having fun selling but the most fun is in the hybridizing.
Red, in daylilies a single scape can flower and it is called a seedling until you split it for sale. Kind of just a term for hybridizers to show what is still in process and what is for sale. Some are tiny plants with a great big bloom. I am having a wonderful "Christmas in July" this year.

People see and describe color differently. Do you mean a pinkish or purplish color? Or a purple/pink. I would see its as a purple/pink. I have beautiful spider that I might call fuchsia, but a light pastel. I will look and post what I see it as .
