Last seedling post for year...

Category: DAYLILY HYBRIDIZING | Posted: Sun Aug 08, 2010 11:52 am

Time has caught up to the daylily season and is putting to bed. Usually or typically it lasts to mid august. But everything bloomed early this year , so everything is wrapping up early as well...

My best rose pink for the year...



A mid late...



This one flared its edge on its last few blooms, always looked nice though no matter what stage it was in.





This one is huge around 8 inches a bloom, plus it had a 45" scape so it was very tall.. the eye was nice, but I didnt like the base color at all. So it only stays to breed hieght if I so choose to do that.



Well thats it for the year! Can you believe it! Had around 300 daylily seedlings bloom this year.. maybe 20 will be kept in the end.

Some of these were taking late! After the 4th celebrations, so not at their best.. Post Rose show is being dominated by my seedlings.. other stuff is in bloom, but I rarely pay attention this time of year.. lol. The seedlings beckon me out , and everything else is forgotten for a bit..

I had to leave for work early.. and this isnt a EMO so had to take it late this evening.. so not at its best, I cant wait to see how this one round out as it has alot of intereting things going on with it..

EMO = Early Morning Opening, this was was fully open by 6 am, I like EMO's as they open before you go to work.. this is a 5.5 inch lightly scluplted, with a green throat and a consistent yellow edge, if not exactly a substanial one.



Some early shots of Surpasse Toute, brighter, bolder than I woudlve ever thought..





Group shot of Heritage rose
