Nice velvety rich color on LD.

That is a nice color, It is exciting when that first one blooms!

Thank You Vickie and Cindy:)

I grow roses and others that grow them are always talking about reblooming ones as a great companion.

Purchased my first collection from QVC'S Roberta's Unique Gardens.

I'm brand new, would like to know the best plants for Florida, where to buy from, etc. I live in Tampa.

Thanks in advance. I'm posting a link to the collection I bought.

Hello Evie, Your Lavender Deal is a totaly different color
than mine.I bought mine from a private local grower.Its not red.

Hi Pat,

Maybe it's a 'Nile Crane'. I searched and found this site, the flower looks quite a bit like the one they posted.

Hi Evie,
Your daylily looks nothing like any offer in the collection (Lavender Deal, Elegant Candy, Blackberry Candy, Longfields Pearl, and Nile Crane.) It is very pretty though! It reminds me of Crimson Pirate. Hopefully some of the others are correct.
Roberta's doesn't have a very good track record according to the Garden Watch Dog. I can't link to that site because GW doesn't allow it, but you can Google for yourself.

It is very pretty but I don't think it's Lavender Deal. Mine is actually light lavender and the petals aren't long and thin.

I appreciate all of your responses. Please guide me to the best companies to buy from.

The link below gives you a good idea of some of the daylily nurseries all over the country. You should always check with Dave's Garden Watchdog before using any of them to make sure they deliver what they promise. And since you are in the south, make sure that the daylily nurseries mention something about their rust protection. Up here it's not as big a deal as all my daylilies go dormant over winter, but in Florida they don't and you do not want a monumental disease problem. Rust can be a major drawback to growing daylilies if it gets out of hand....Maryl

Thanks everyone, I'm posting pics now of a couple of the other blooms. so far the Longsfield Pearl may be right:)

Here's a list of vendors that I consider to be highly reputable:

Aren't I Pretty Daylilies - Alcolu SC
Blue Ridge - Alexander NC
Christie's Daylilies - Jesup GA
Eclectic Gardens - Hillsboro OR
Gold Coast Daylilies - Rocklin CA
Marietta Daylily Gardens - Fairmont, NC
Maryott's Daylily Gardens - Freedom CA
Patron Gardens - Albany GA
Shaw's Sunshine Gardens - Augusta, GA
Sunset Meadow Daylily Farm - Sumter SC

I was very well satisfied with the daylilies that I purchased from these folks and they sent me great bonus plants.
