This page is far from finished.

Welcome to our online resource for those who may recently have discovered daylilies.
Often someone who is new to daylilies is overwhelmed by the information,
the choices, and most of all...the prices! Don't touch that checkbook until you've visited our site...
unless of course, you have money to burn.

I will be listing many wonderful daylilies in the months to come,
in both seed and plant form. I'll provide as much information (free, of course)
as I can to assist you so that you can grow lilies without the hassle, the cost and the worry.

Ah,the Daylily. Often mistakenly spelled with an extra "L". Gorgeous soldiers waving in the breeze in a multitude of colors.
To me, they represent the country life, and how better to live country than to have daylilies everywhere?

Sunshine, (don't worry, they are fine in part sun, too!)
well drained soil and room to grow is all these wonderful plants ask!
In return, you will see blossom after blossom in a rainbow of colors, multiplying every year!
Choose one, two, as many as you need. Gorgeous alone or in groups, single colors or in mass of many, you choose.
A very easy-to-care-for plant which will return every year to please you even more as the years go by!


DAYLILY SEEDS

DIP & TET MIXTURE Hemerocallis 20 + seeds - $2.50.
If you see it listed on our daylily page, you can bet it took part in our pollination program! Beautiful plants in both our garden beds as well as our own personal plants are used in producing some wonderful crosses each summer. Plenty of everything in this batch!

Stella D'Oro seeds have been kept separate so you won't have to wait for years to see the same old yellow fellow. For those who desire Stellas, of course, we also have a great Stella seed package coming, having been pollinated with many of our finest registered cultivars!
Each seed will produce a plant which will multiply every year for you, providing many plants for mere pocket change!
We have a Honey Bee apiary and are very pleased to give our bees the run of the place, but rest assured, the parents of these seeds are all named cultivars including any you see listed below.

DAYLILY PLANTS

At this time we are not selling plants. I am working full time outside of the home, and as such have,
well, literally lost my life and have zero time. Sigh.

So many lilies, so little time!

A key to figuring out the confusing jibberish next to each daylily:

AVG - Average
CSELF - Complete Self. Bloom is entirely one color
DBL - Double blooms
DIP - Diploid 22 chromosomes
DOR - Dormant foliage in winter
EVR - Evergreen foliage in winter
EYE - Bloom has a center eye
EXT - Extended bloom period
FRA - Fragrant
NOC - Nocturnal, blooms in the evening
PLY - Polytepal. Daylilies normally have 3 petals, 3 sepals. Polys have more than 3.
SELF - All segments the same color except eye
SPDV - Spider Variant
TET - Tetrapolid 44 chromosomes
UNF - Unusual form

PLANTS ARE NOT FOR SALE AT THIS TIME.

Price, if for sale, is listed next to cultivar. Double fans are shipped.
Size depends on cultivar and age, though most are of blooming size.
Shipping generally does not exceed $10.00 for your entire daylily order,
unless you are ordering more than ten plants.

If there is not a price listed next to the item, you may inquire
but it is likely not for sale at this time.

SEEDLINGS

Parentage unknown. Difficult to capture true color with my camera. Actual color is a darker plum, not pink. Fragrant. Multiplies wonderfully! A daylily grown from seed, parentage unknown. Very very dark A daylily grown from seed, parentage unknown, though this particular bed was mainly Lady Neva offspring.


LOST SOULS

As yet unidentified daylilies. Some are registered cultivars with missing tags, others are
gifts from well meaning friends:

146 147 Not a seedling, but a lost soul. Very tall. Reminds me of Screech Owl, but I have no tag, no proof of it's name, thus it remains a look-alike without paperwork in my garden Tag mix up, a toss between Royal Robe and a lost soul. Provided with nothing more than a list to search. I've not taken the time to research yet. An absolutely stunning daylily with no name. Not a seedling, but a lost soul with a missing tag.

REGISTERED CULTIVARS

ALWAYS AFTERNOON ALWAYS AFTERNOON Morss 1987 22" ERe 5.5" Mauve Edged Buff with Purple Eye Sev Tet Ext
Parentage: (Ring of Change x Tiffany Palace) x Opus One

ANZAC ANZAC Parry 1968 28"MRe 7" Red Self Dor Dip Ext
I have no picture this year, as this one proved not to be true to name. Starting over, will need to replace Anzac with a correct cultivar.

BABY JULIA BABY JULIA Tanner 1968 32" EM 2.5" Pink Self Sev Dip
Parentage: Melon Balls x Seedling. Oh, my gosh, what a precious one this is, a name so fitting! Makes a very attractive clump.

BALI HAI BALI HAI Wild 1973 22" M 5" Pink Melon with Raised Orchid Midribs Dor Dip
I find it hard to believe this beauty has been around since 1973. Indeed a gorgeous daylily I hope to always have in my garden. Big beautiful blooms. Because I save seed from my daylilies, this one makes it tough not to cut for a bouquet in the house. Resist, resist!

BAMA MUSIC BAMA MUSIC Hardy 1966 28" M 5" Pale Pink Self Dor Dip
Parentage: Frances Fay (1957) x Seedling. In a day when it's hard to find PINK PINK and not pink with a hint of salmon, peach or otherwise, Bama Music truly fits the bill. Tough blooms stand strong in the rains while others wilt from the wetness. Pistils are so long that you don't have to snap off a stamen to pollinate...gently arch it over, dab and you're done. I breed this one back to itself in hopes of keeping that true pink color going for future seedlings. A smashing bouquet selection.

BARBARA MITCHELL BARBARA MITCHELL C. Pierce 1984 20" MRE 6" Pink Self Sev Dip
Fairy Tale Pink x Beverly Ann. Awart of Merit 1990. Stout Silver Medal 1992.

BERTIE FERRIS BERTIE FERRIS Winniford 1969 20" E 2.5" Orange Self Dor Dip Ext
Winner of the Stout Award in 1980 and the Fischer in 1973.

BIG BIRD BIG BIRD Griesbach and Klehm 1978 34" EM 7" Yellow Self Dor Tet Fra
Parentage: . I love this cultivar. A big bloom with plenty of sunshine yellow blooms to drool over. Fabulous cut flower will have guests begging for divisions.
BLACK EYED STELLA BLACK EYED STELLA Roberson 1989 13" ERE 3.125" Golden Yellow with Dark Red Eye Dor Dip Noc Ext
Stella de Oro x Little Celena. A twist on the classic Stella, this one has eyes! Seems rather tasty to cucumber beetles, who dined on this poor bloom, though it has been shown to be rust resistant. Oddly enough, the rust resistant varieties of Hollyhocks I grow seem to be equally tasty to bugs.

BLACK PRINCE BLACK PRINCE

BONANZA BONANZA Ferrick 1954 34" M Orange Yellow Self Dor Dip Fra

BORDER LORD BORDER LORD Salter 1996 30" MRE 6.5" Cream w/ Purple Eye Edge Sev Tet
My camera did not pick up what I consider a slight apricot cream color in the petals. Stunning!

BRIGHT SUNSET BRIGHT SUNSET Rudolph 1978 36" E 6" Dusty Burnt Orange w/ Deeper Halo Dor Tet Fra Ext. Parentage: Commandment x seedling. Has Minted Gold, Summer Splendor and Paris Gown in it's genetic history as well. While I once thought I would rather have Rocket City for a bright orange cultivar, I have to say, Bright Sunset sets seed pods like nobody's business! Even without my assistance, these plants are pollinated to the nth degree. Fantastic seed setters!
BRUTUS BRUTUS Winniford 1975 24" MLa 7" Yellow Green Flushed Pink Sev Dip Ext

BUTTERED POPCORN Buttered Popcorn Benzinger 1971 32" M Late 6" Ywllow Self Dor Tet Fra. Parentage: Mary Todd x (Ann Russell x Elfin) x (Ann Russell x Elfin) x seedling.

CAREFREE PEACH CAREFREE PEACH
A dinky yet distinct bloomer! 3" blossoms on 27" stems! A pretty peach with a thin eyezone surround it's green and yellow throat. A bloomer and a wonderful rebloomer to boot.

Incorrect photo displayed. Will correct this soon.

CELEBRITY ELITE CELEBRITY ELITE Oakes 1987 25" M 5.5" Tomato Red Self Dor Tet
One I won't part with in my own garden. A tough cookie with whopping red blooms. You have to see this red in person to appreciate it's unique tomato red hue and large size, the camera just can't properly capture it correctly. This Tet's anther's burst open with pollen just screaming 'Hybridize me!'. A dependable red even from afar!

CHANCE ENCOUNTER CHANCE ENCOUNTER

CHICAGO GOLD COAST CHICAGO GOLD COAST Marsh 1975 24" MRE 6" Deep Gold Self Sev Tet
Another cultivar overlooked for it's strength, bright color and amazing bloom.

CHICAGO SCINTILLATION CHICAGO SCINTILLATION Marsh and Klehm 1980 22" M 5" Purple w/ White Edge Dor Tet
It's hard to appreciate the depth of this gorgeous color in a photograph, especially with my poor camera. Clean colors, vivid and clear blossoms, I truly admire this one.

CHORUS LINE CHORUS LINE D. Kirchhoff 1981 20" ERe 3.5" Pink with Rose Band and Yellow Halo Evr Dip Fra Ext
Though registered to grow 20" tall, it is several inches taller here in zone 7, and so reported by many other nurseries to do the same.

CLOTHED IN GLORY CLOTHED IN GLORY Larry Grace 1996 18" M 7" Lavender Mauve w/ Lavender Eye Evr Tet Fra
Parentage = Collector's Choice x Admiral's Braid.
An absolutely stunning, high class daylily. Not your run of the mill lily, Clothed In Glory exhibits all of the attributes to rightfully claim it's name.

CRADLE SONG CRADLE SONG Milliken 1954 22" EMRE Medium Yellow Self Evr Dip Noc
Don't make the mistake of passing this one over from the tiny preview picture. It's more than what you might think is just another yellow. Have a closer look! An interesting trait worthy of further consideration by breeders, Cradle Song features what appears to be a dusting of color about it's petals, spreading from the throat outward. Very soft yet attention getting! Registered as Nocturnal, but blooms beautifully in the part shade in daytime. Rapid reproduction.

CRIMSON SHADOWS CRIMSON SHADOWS Klehm 1987 25" MLA 5" Crimson with Darker Eye Dor Tet

CRIMSON PIRATE CRIMSON PIRATE H.E. Sass 1951 30" M Red w/ Medium Red Spot Dor Dip Ext Spd

CUSTARD CANDY CUSTARD CANDY Stamile 1989 24" EmRe 4.25" Cream Yellow with Maroon Eye Dor Tet
This one exudes stigmatic fluid! In other words, it's just begging to be pollinated! A bountiful bouquet every day!

I've been waiting for this one to bloom for years now, and finally! I've been rewarded for my patience. Just look at it!

DOUBLE POMPON DOUBLE POMPON J. Miles 1972 34" M 6" Pink Blend Dor Dip Dbl
Quite unique, this one bursts open with a resemblance to a frilly pink ruffled sparkler, for lack of a better description. Very interesting consideration for hybridizing with plain petaled Diploids.

ED BROWN ED BROWN Salter 1994 28" EMRE 5.5" Pink Self w/ Gold Edge Sev Tet
Something Wonderful x Elizabeth's Dream. To date, Hemerocallis Ed Brown takes the cake for best lily in my garden. A must see, a must have.

ED MURRAY ED MURRAY ED MURRAY ED MURRAY Grovatt 1971 30" M 4" Red Self Dor Dip Ext. While not the most flattering of photos, I finally have one up.

ELIZABETH SALTER ELIZABETH SALTER Salter 1990 22" MRe 5.5" Pink Self Sev Tet

EMPEROR'S DRAGON EMPEROR'S DRAGON EMPEROR'S DRAGON R.W. Munson 1988 26" MRe 5" Silvery Mauve with Raisin Plum Eye Evr Tet Ext
Pictures are of the same bloom, one shot taken in the morning sun, one shielded.

ENCHANTINGLY BEAUTIFUL ENCHANTINGLY BEAUTIFUL Elliott 1982 20" MRE 6" Pastel Lilac Rose w/ Faint Rose Halo Dor Dip Fra Noc Ext
The fragrance of this one is strong, but pleasantly so. Colors fade to a light dusting of pink as the day progresses.

FAIRY CHARM FAIRY CHARM Jablonski 1978 18" EMRE 5" Cream Pink Blend Dor Dip Fra Ext
When even your teenaged sons compliment this one, you know it's a sure thing for the garden! Lovely, lovely, lovely bloom you can't resist. And with a name like Fairy Charm, you'll see why it is aptly dubbed!

FAIRY TALE PINK FAIRY TALE PINK C. Pierce 1980 24" MRe 5.5" Pink Self Sev Dip
Don't let the basic description fool you. A matured plant with multiple fans can't be beat for gorgeous glory! A must have daylily in every garden, Fairy Tale is especially beautiful in the full sun, with it's diamond dusting. Oh, so pretty and such perfect form! A Stout Award winner in 1990.

FERENGI GOLD FERENGI GOLD Petit 1994 19" EM 5.5" Flesh Pink to Yellow Polychrome and Yellow Eye Dor Tet

FLORE PLENO FLORE PLENO Don't pass this one by as 'wild', folks, it has much to offer. Best if planted in masse where it may roam freely without mingling with registered cultivars, as it has a tendency to go forth and conquer the garden beds.

FORTY CARATS 40 / FORTY CARATS Benz 1988 30" M 5.5" Soft Pumpkin Orange Self Dor Tet Ext
Parentage: Judah x Tetra Mavis Smith. Now THIS is a tough cookie. Strong, sturdy support for multiple traffic-stopping blooms at once. Huge blossoms command your attention, and my, do they get it, even on through the evening after a long, hot day. Though my lilies are mainly planted in rows for the display beds, this one would stop traffic when planted en masse! A Tetraploid I use for pollinating often. Very strong plant! Anthers are slow to open, but worth the wait for pollen. A real booger to breed, at least in my garden.

FRAGRANT PASTEL CHEERS FRAGRANT PASTEL CHEERS
Klehm 1990 38" M 5.5" Pastel Blend Dor Tet Fra
I feel as if this one has been left behind and forgotten, but oh such a treasure in my garden! Perhaps a little known beauty, it offers a unique hint of pastel tones about the petals. A true delight in my garden and one I will always grow.

FRANS HALS FRANS HALS Flory 1955 24" MLA Bright Rust w/ Orange Bicolor and Creamy Orange Midribs Dor Dip
Though the foliage is not as wide as some, it is plentiful. A good performer throughout the season. Bright colors in a bi-color beauty! What I found interesting about Frans Hals is that once it is planted, it's roots are deep and strong, as if to say it is here to stay!

FULVA FULVA
Commonly known as the Ditch Lily, Tawny Daylily, Railroad Lily, etc. Often snubbed as wild and worthless, but not to those who know and appreciate it's history. Without this original we would not have made the breeding advances in today's hybrids. Deserving of a home of it's own due to it's spreading tendencies.

GOLDEN PRIZE GOLDEN PRIZE Peck 1968 26" LA 7" Gold Self Dor Tet
Winner of the Lenington Award in 1987.

GOLDEN SCROLL GOLDEN SCROLL Guidry 1983 19" ERe 5.5" Tangerine Self Dor Dip Fra
Winner of the Plouf Award in 1989.

GRAMMIE'S LIST GRAMMIE'S LIST Very similar to Fragrant Pastel Cheers, but I have both, and Grammie's List is definitely a different tone. FPC seems a bit on the yellow side, while GL has a tinge more peachy color which did not show up in my most recent photos. Both are fine cultivars. Oddly enough, I find a few traits of both these cultivars to be seen in Wedding Band. Not exact, mind you, but I see where the older cutivars have definitely made a contribution to the newer daylilies of today.

GREEN FLUTTER GREEN FLUTTER Williamson 1964 20" LARE 3" Canary Self Sev Dip Ext
Winner of the Lenington Award in 1980 and the Stout Award in 1976. A cheery Canary yellow sure to make you smile, the green throat is a delight to the eye. Excellent choice for mass plantings.

HYPERION HYPERION F.B. Mead 1924 40" M Light Green Yellow Self Dor Dip Fra Ext
Isn't it crazy to have a fragrant daylily if you can't smell it? No problem here, this one is typically 40" tall! No kneeling on the ground to smell it's sunshine colored blossoms! Hyperion's blooming period is an extended one. A great choice for naturalizing an area with height. Such an incredibly wonderful fragrance, you can't help but to keep smelling this one.

A petite treat in the garden perfect if you desire something not so towering. Very cute! A fine choice for containers.

LITTLE BABY MINE LITTLE BABY MINE E.H. Salter 1994 18" MRe 3" Cream Pink with Deep Rose Pink Eye Sev Dip
What a precious baby indeed! Tight little clusters of blooms with creamy pink color and an eye you would swear was winking at you. A great tendency for the pistil to be overflowing with stigmatic fluid, as if to say "Choose me for pollination, choose me!" A wonderful little bouquet all by itself. Great for containers as it is a shortie with much to show. Planted close to our water meter so I don't lose this precious cultivar.

Intense color and veining for such a little guy! The color reminds me of Plum Perfect, so for those wishing to pick up a few of it's traits but refrain due to Plum Perfect's "Propagation Prohibited" trademark, you may wish to consider using Little Dreamer instead . A little diploid with a lot to offer in it's deep veins and can't miss eye! The gentle ruffle on the edges can't be beat. A focus on enlarging this very bloom is highly encouraged!

Parentage: Crestwood Gold x seedling. If you almost skipped this one because you saw 'orange', take a closer look. Whopping big bloom makes a statement all by itself. One single branch of Rocket City in a vase with bulbed vessel and WOW! Add matching glass stones and this one's a bouquet favorite. A child of Crestwood Gold - 1964 x Seedling. You've simply got to see this one's bud before bloom. No wonder they named it Rocket City. The bud looks like a hot poker before it opens, as if it were going to explode with color! A big bloom with loads of color you can't miss, especially attention-grabbing from afar with it's intense color and size! If I must complain, it is rather stingy when it comes to setting seed pods.

Can you beat all this great lily has to offer?? Stunning color, huge bloom, Semi-evergreen foliage, a rebloomer AND a Tet. It almost advertises pollinating potential! A result of crossing Knave x Chicago Royal. Awart of Merit 1979. Lenington All-American Award 1989.

As of May 28, 2005, this one stood the tallest in both of our daylily gardens. A strong tendency to put off proliferations. Winner of the Stout award in 1959.

SATAN'S FIRE SATAN'S FIRE Santa Lucia 1998 32" M 4.5" Red with Darker Eye and Orange Eye Evr Tet. Truly an intense bloom. If you could see it in person, you would fully understand how it was named. The bloom's intense center actually seems to radiate heat and fire! Beautiful!

This one is appropriately named! It's tall height and ravishing color seems to screech for your attention! A Tetraploid with good value for further hybridization. And what better once it captures your attention...it's also fragrant!

I confess to squealing with delight when this one opens each year. No matter how many times I see it, I still can't help but to become excited when it blooms. I could sit and adore it for hours if I didn't have a real life. It's hard to believe it is such a low priced daylily.

What a wonderful scent this one puts off. Don't be surprised if it blooms in single form during it's first year. See this image to see a single form of this cultivar.

STRAWBERRY CANDY STRAWBERRY CANDY Stamile 1989 26" EMRe 4.25" strawberry pink Blend with rose red eye Sev Tet Ext. A very pretty cultivar, one of many in the 'Candy' series by Stamile. Sometimes difficult to capture the true colors. This image was taken at dusk with a flash. The bloom was a full day old, so not as fresh as it should have been for picture taking.

TERRI ELLIS TERRI ELLIS TERRI ELLIS TERRI ELLIS Aden 1978 24" 6.5" M Sev Tet Ext Pink Self with Green throat. Teri Ellis has been in my garden since the beginning, so I was rather surprised to find it was difficult to locate on the internet. Few have images of Teri Ellis available. Oddly enough, Teri Ellis is a cultivar one would imagine to be in many gardens. It is a tough plant with many blooms all at once in a beautiful shade of pink which I consider difficult to describe. While it is registered as a pink, it has a tiny touch of what I call a pastel salmon just begging to be noticed. While it does have a green throat, it does not stand out and is in fact tucked deep inside. A nice plant with bountiful blooms. It's a keeper in my garden! Yet another strong plant I rely on for hybridizing pollen.

Parentage: Tetrina x Moon Temple. Though slow to increase, mature fans are HUGE! Strong and sturdy plants indeed, with a blossom just brimming with sunshine! Consider this one in your hybridizing efforts, as it is a bounty of seed pods each season.

Parentage: Scarlet Oak x James Marsh. A beautiful bloom quite difficult to capture with my camera. A must see to appreciate daylily, as my photo hardly does it justice. A candidate for hybridizing, no doubt. With James Marsh in it's parentage, how can one go wrong?
