2026 Introductions
Broadway Serenade
(G725-2) [Ann's Blue Eyes x Bewitching Glory] TET 22" 5" M SEv, 2 Branches and 12 Buds
Take your breath away with this sultry, theatrical beauty that lives up to its name. Registered as a 5" single, Broadway Serenade performs its most unforgettable act when it doubles — roughly 20% of the blooms — practically demanding the camera. Even in its single form, the flower is pure drama. Velvety dark purple petals are overlaid with an inky near-black eye and matching picotee edge that looks hand-painted by midnight itself, and the glowing chartreuse throat pulls you in like a spotlight.
Though scapes are on the shorter side (perfect for the front of the border or container display), the intense, mysterious coloration and surprise doubling more than compensate — every morning feels like opening night. Hardy and vigorous, Broadway Serenade has been turning heads in my garden for years. Don’t miss your chance to own the star of tomorrow’s daylily stage today. DF $100
Broadway Serenade showing off as a double...
Dragon's Ember
(H826-1) [Celestial Cindy Dye x Patton] TET 28" 5" M Dor, 4 Branches and 20 Buds.
Deep in the garden, something is smoldering. Dragon’s Ember glows with a rich, smoky purple so intense in some areas it borders on black, each petal edged in molten fire: long, wickedly sharp golden-yellow teeth that flare outward like flames licking from a dragon’s breath. The contrast is nothing short of electrifying — the darker the purple velvet, the brighter those jagged gold teeth burn, turning every bloom into a living ember that catches the light and refuses to let go.
A blazing chartreuse-to-gold throat pulls you straight into the dragon’s heart, while the teeth curl and twist with untamed personality. Strong scapes present the 5" flowers proudly.
For tooth lovers, this isn’t just another edged purple — this is the one that ends the hunt. Dragon’s Ember doesn’t bloom… it ignites. Claim your fire before it’s gone. DF $100

Each 8" flower is perfectly formed with wide crispating petals, giving it a classic, elegant presence that stops garden visitors in their.
Exceptionally well-branched scapes and high bud counts deliver weeks of non-stop, traffic-stopping bloom. Opens perfectly, holds its color without fading, and multiplies rapidly in the garden.

Some flowers shout. Midnight Whisper speaks in velvet shadows.
This is one of the blackest daylilies you will ever grow, rivaling the inky intensity of my 2010 classic Black Fury. The petals are a deep, saturated obsidian with a haunting blue-violet undertone that shifts like smoke in different light. Then — just when you think it can’t get any darker — an electric lime-green throat ignites at the center, throwing the near-black petals into breathtaking relief and creating a glow that seems almost otherworldly. What truly sets Midnight Whisper apart from other “blacks” is its stature: tall, elegant scapes (35") carry the 7" flowers high and proud, where they hover like dark stars above the foliage.
Destined for exhibition benches and moon gardens alike. If you’ve been chasing the ultimate tall, true-black daylily with a throat that knocks you out, your search ends here. Midnight Whisper isn’t just dark — it’s spellbinding. Limited introductory stock on one of my personal favorites. DF $150

This is the pink double you’ve been dreaming about — the one that makes people stop mid-sentence and whisper “What IS that?” A luscious pink that looks like strawberry frosting swirled with cream. Every petal is outlined in a pure creamy-white ribbon, then finished with delicate, bubbly ruffles that give the bloom an almost weightless, confection-like lightness.

Later blooms settle into decadent 6–6.5" doubles that still pack the same sugar-rush impact. The color glows in every light, the substance is diamond-tough, and the doubling is rock-solid consistent (98%).
