Hybridizer's chaff

Don't really know the whole story, but apparently there is a hybridizer near here that sells off the "not good enough to name" varieties. So, there's a field of daylilies in bloom that you can pick from. $5 for 5 scapes or $10 for more or $20 for huge plants. Being new, I figured what the heck, why not. These probably don't measure up to the wonderful blooms I've seen here, but I like the instant gratification. I ended up with two $10 plants. Here's an example of their $20 plant

And one I took home. I love the soft pastel colors on this huge ~7" bloom but can't quite capture the real color. It's a little deeper and richer than the pic


And the other one, the blooms really shrunk after ripping it out of the ground and replanting it at home

It just glows in the sunlight

And the ones that got away
