PREVIOUS INTRODUCTIONS (I-P)

(Q1-1) [Blizzard Bay x Great White] TET 28"” 6" ML Ev, 4 branches, 20 buds. I saved seven seedlings from this fantastic cross and In His Presence had the best branching. This is a sib to ‘Butter & Sugar’ (2006) and would best be described as a very near white with a gold edge. It is evergreen and is proving to be an excellent breeder for more white and better branching in your white program. Fertile both ways. $15

(A248-1) [(Forrestlake Ragamuffin x (Baby Baracuda x Spiny Sea Urchin)) x When Lightning Strikes] TET 33" 6" M Re Dor, 5 Branches & 26 Buds, Crispate UF. It’s The Rage has been a garden favorite for many visitors and why not? It is by my assessment a near perfect daylily. It's red color is striking and the teeth on both petals and sepals are often 1/2". It is tall, well branched and budded with good growth habit. Hard to find a fault. Destined to be one of my all-time best. Fertile both ways. DF $50

(Q18-5)  [Panda Bear x Bold Encounter] TET 30" 5.5" M Dor, 14 Buds. Jewels of the Sun is a rich yellow-orange with a rose eye and edge. The petals recurve creating the illusion of an oversized eye. Jewels of the Sun has been a favorite of garden visitors for years and proven to be a fantastic parent. One of its offspring is already destined for future introduction. Fertile Both ways. Limited supply. SOLD OUT

(F31-3) [Libby Gallion x Lisa Michelle]  TET 33" 5.5" EM DOR, 3 branches and 15 buds.  Double 95%. Kat Nenninger is named for a close friend and daylily enthusiast of many years.  “Kat” is a pure red self with light ruffling.  Petaloids stand straight up reminding me of the old single peonies. Strong grower and a great addition to the red doubles.  I simply love it's overall performance. This beauty has height and bud count in addition to consistent doubling.  Fertile both ways.  DF $75  

(B381-2) [Highrise At Night x Blackberry Dragon] TET 46" 9" EM Re Dor, Crispate & Cascade UF. Kenneth Wilkie is a commanding daylily in the garden with excellent plant habit and branching. Blooms measure 9” even as they cascade. Flowers are purple with a multi-colored eye of cream and near black. It should be a good parent for patterned daylilies. Kenneth Wilkie is a fantastic daylily named for my good friend and fellow hybridizer. It is without a doubt my best UF to date. Fertile Both Ways. DF $75

(V110-1) [(Cherokee Pass x Bold Encounter) x Crossfire Trail] TET 30" 6" Dor EM, 4 Branches, 24 Buds. Pucker up! Killer Kiss is a bright orange beauty with a bright red eye and edge, and I had little doubt this would be an introduction the first time I saw it bloom. It is bright and showy and has been an excellent parent. Fertile both ways. This was SOLD OUT for years after introduction, but I now have inventory available.  DF $35

(Y68-1) [{(Wyoming Wildfire x (Tigerling x All Fired Up)) x (Strawberry Candy x Scarlet Orbit)} x Black Fury] TET 30" 5.25" M Ev, 3 Branches, 18 Buds. King of Spades is a deep mahogany red with a black eye and dark veining. This is different from anything I have seen previously and was a nice reward from its complex lineage. King of Spades absolutely glows in the sunlight. Fertile both ways.    SOLD OUT

(U9-2) [Jerry Pate Williams x Double Vanilla Supreme] TET 28”" 6”" EM Re SEv, 3 Branches, 18 Buds. Agnes Truitt, my mother-in-law, came to love daylilies when I was allowed to use her back yard for growing seedlings. She would walk the patch before I arrived and was eager to show me her favorites upon my arrival. This gorgeous double has a cream peach base and red eye, and it was a favorite of garden visitors in 2010. A wonderful performer with large showy flowers and immediate rebloom. 99 % double and fertile both ways. DF $30

(T35-3) [Baby Baracuda x Mort Morss] TET 31" 5.5" M SEv, 3 Branches, 15 Buds. When I made this cross, I had little doubt that some of the offspring would be toothy wonders, but what surprised me was the variety that emerged before my eyes. Lady Killer is the first introduction from the cross (there will be more), and it is red with yellow shark’s teeth halfway around the petals. While the teeth do not fully encircle the petals, they are the largest I have seen…some as large a ½ inch. Lady Killer has been much admired since its garden debut and is VERY limited in supply. Fertile both ways. SOLD OUT

(Y19-2) [Frances Elizabeth Stadler x Carolina Cool Down] TET 42" 7.5" EM Re Dor, 3 Branches & 18 Buds. Land of Plenty was well named due to its tremendous rebloom habit. Four sets of bloom with the first rebloom being as heavy as the original bloom in the 2016 season. It is purple with cream stripes down the center of petals and a narrow cream edging. Sepals are a creamy lavender. If you are looking for longer bloom, this is the one for you. Tremendous parentage. Easily fertile both ways.   

DISPLAY ONLY

(Y80-1) [(Baby Baracuda x Spiny Sea Urchin) x Venus Flytrap] TET 36" 6" M Dor, 6 Branches and 25+ Buds. Lavender Flytrap is one beautiful flower and comes with all the trimmings. I have yet to find a fault with it after growing it for multiple seasons. Petals are lavender with a touch of pink blending in while sepals are lighter giving a bi-tone effect. The gold toothy edges can display teeth as large as ½ inch at times. Good growth, plant habit, bud count and fertility are only second to this cultivar’s most important quality…beauty. DF $60

SDLG #F25-4 [Memories of Ann X Date with Destiny] TET 22" 6" ML DOR, 95% Double.  4 Branches, 20 Buds. "Lemonicious" unfolds its splendor with a harmonious blend of understated elegance and vibrant allure.  The 6” double bloom has a lemon-yellow hue that illuminates the garden with a soft, captivating glow. Its intricate lace and ruffles are a dance of texture and color that blend modern aesthetics with timeless grace. Standing at a modest 22 inches, "Lemonicious" asserts its presence in the garden without overshadowing its floral companions. Aside from its beauty, what sets "Lemonicious" apart is its unique parentage. Untested fertility. DF $75

Seedling F15-1 [Divas In Diamonds x Make It Snappy] TET 32" 8" M Dor, UF, 5+ branches and 25+ buds.  Linda Hunt is an absolutely stunning flower with deep pink petals set off by a light pink watermark. To top it off, it has narrow cream edging. This gorgeous flower is named for a very close family friend and it has it all…beauty, growth and it is an usual form crispate.  Fertile both ways. Very limited. DF $80

(N29-2) [Elizabeth Salter X Splendid Touch] TET 29" 6" M Dor Fra. This was a very difficult cross as Elizabeth Salter is not a good pod parent. It took many crosses to get two seedlings, but both were ABSOLUTE KNOCKOUTS!! Love Comes Softly is a cream pink or better described as a cream with a pink blush set off by a deep green throat. It has nice pie-crust ruffles on a classic form. You will not miss this one due to its height, size and beauty. It has been a favorite of garden visitors. Fertile both ways. DISPLAY ONLY

(U89-1)  [Wild and Wonderful x Long Stocking] TET 38" 9" (4:1 Ratio) Dor E, 4 Branches, 22 Buds. Match Point is my first tetraploid spider …and it is a goodie! Sometimes unusual crosses work out and that was certainly the case here. Match Point excels in all the key areas that make a daylily great, growth, branching and color. The base color is light orange and the eye is red. Petals often twist and curl for visual interest. Fertile both ways. SOLD OUT

(W22-3) [Christmas Cotton X Date with Destiny] TET 27" 6" M Dor, 3 Branches, 16 Buds. I lost my beloved wife of 51 years in November of 2013. Ann was a beautiful lady both inside and outside. This daylily is so named to remind me of my memories of Ann. I registered it as a 90% double because it is not consistent every year and could use a few more buds. It is so beautiful, however, that you will overlook its minor faults. It has deep pink petals and petaloids with lighter pink sepals, all with white edgings. You simply will not pass this one by. It is an absolute beauty as was Ann. Fertile both ways. DF $35

E626-6 [Lavender Flytrap x Roses For Dallas]  TET 30" 8" ML DOR, UF Crispate, 3 branches and 15 buds.  This unique beauty has been a favorite from first bloom due to the unusual shade of purple.  I wasn’t sure how to describe it, but garden visitors agree it is the color of merlot wine. Who wouldn’t want a little merlot in the garden? I love the lavender watermark and the wonderful plant habit.  Fertile both ways.  DF $75  

(C435-1) [Black Fury x Midnight in Burgess] TET 29" 5.5" M Dormant, 3 Branches, 18 Buds. Midnight Fury is the product of crossing the two blackest daylilies I have ever seen. I have worked at hybridizing black daylilies for close to 30 years and still have only a few that I would actually call black. This is now part of that list and would be an excellent plant for anyone interested in this color class. Fertile both ways. DF $100

(X1-1) [Black Market x Dakar] TET 30" 4.5" M SEv, 4 Branches, 22 Buds. After introducing Black Fury in 2010, I feel as though the bar was set pretty high for future black introductions. As a result, I have taken my time in bringing another black daylily to market. Night Vigil is a beautiful addition to the line and brings height, bud count and ruffling to the program. In addition, it has great plant habit. If it has a fault, it would be that it multiplies slower than I would like. Fertile both ways. DF $35

(X86-1) [Crossfire x Sunny Intervals] TET 38" 8" M Dor, 5 Branches, 24 Buds, Rebloom. Most of my reds are quite dark in color, but Off the Charts is a brilliant red with a green/yellow throat pattern that extends nearly halfway out on the sepals. This beauty makes quite a statement and I have loved it since it was first discovered in the seedling patch. This is a spectacular daylily that may be my best single flower introduction to date. Time will tell. Fertile both ways. DF $35

(T21-2) [Meet Joe Black x Jamaican Music] TET 26" 5.75" EM Ev, 3 Branches & 15 Buds, 75% Double. Outbreak has generated more interest in my garden than anything since Date With Destiny (2009). The color combination is simply breathtaking. Petals are lavender/pink and the flowers display near black eyes with wide edges. Outbreak is from single breeding and brings new genes into the double pool, although it is not always double. I suspect this will need extra care in the North as it is very evergreen. After many years working on doubles with eyes and edges, this is my most exciting introduction since Date with Destiny. SOLD OUT

(D531-2) [Heart Music x Curt’s Gift] TET 39" 7" M Dormant M UF, 4 Branches, 22 Buds. Paris Secrets is a complex unusual form cascade. The color is orchid pink with a cream watermark that extends out on to the petals making it look like a border. To top things off, the flower has a cream lacy border that almost looks toothy. Hybridizers can certainly go multiple ways with this one. Fertile both ways. DF $60

(E604-2) [Memories of Ann X Ann's Love] TET 30" 7" ML DOR, 95% Double. 3 Branches, 15-18 Buds, Rebloom.  A fleeting glance toward “Pink Dessert” may remind you of a luscious strawberry ice cream cone before you realize the color is a bit too dark.  It has lightly ruffled petals and displays a deep pink hue. Measuring a generous 7 inches, this beauty will enchant you with its size and grace. Good rebloom and fertile both ways. SF $90

(U29-2) [Baby Baracuda x Spiny Sea Urchin] TET 28" 5" M SEv, 4 Branches, 20 Buds. Piranha Attack is a vibrant purple with a dark purple eye, a double edge of purple and cream yellow and FANTASTIC teeth. If you are breeding for teeth or enjoy toothy flowers, this one is a must have. As the season progresses and heat builds, the teeth become more numerous and pronounced. Excellent performer and fertile both ways. DF $25

(E604-1) [Memories Of Ann  X  Ann's Love] TET 24" 5.5" EM SEv, 3 branches and 15 buds, double 98%.  This beauty is an ever changing pink double.  Sometimes it is a blend of varying shades of pink and cream.  Other times it is a light pink with dark pink borders. What doesn’t change is the fact that PRINCESS MEMORIES it is a beautiful flower.  It is heavily ruffled which enhances its appeal even more. PRINCESS MEMORIES has excellent plant habit and forms a clump quickly.  It is a consistent double.  In fact, I have actually never seen a single bloom.  Fertile both ways. DF $75
