G daylilies 2020

6 years ago
last modified: 6 years ago

G daylilies get to show off today. The quote for today: “Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.”


Getting Airborne is new here and had first blooms this past season, so velvety and tall.


Green Eyed Illusion was also new with first blooms. I’m so glad I got this one, love it.


Get R Done also new, I saw a few blooms. This one will stay.

    Sherry, that is a velvety look on Getting Airborne. Love it! And I can see why you like Green Eyed Illusion. I also got Get R Done this past season. Too late tonight to check on my pictures but yours are lovely!

    Gadsden Goliath


    Gemini Jack


    Green Rainbow


    Gift from Heaven, had this one for 8 or 10 years, slowly multiplying but it has finally become a nice clump the last 2 or 3 years. An evergreen that does well if you don't mind slow to multiply, and I don't really like to divide.


    George Jets On


    Guilded by Grace has been here a few years, struggling, but the drought seems to have taken it out. Sometimes those show up in the spring, we'll see


    Gizmo


    Glory to his Name had its 1st bloom year (new spring 2018 but did not bloom that year) It multiplied a lot during the 1st year, last summer it bloomed and bloomed and bloomed.


    An oldie but bright and blooms well, Gold Banner

    Heather, Green Derby is definitely an eye catcher. I think that your photo of Get Jiggy is probably the best I’ve seen, so nice in your garden!

    Nancy, Green Rainbow is lovely with that huge throat. I also really like your double Gemini Jack. Gift From Heaven made a lovely clump, I also hate to divide so this daylily would fit in well here.

    Sherry, Green Eyed Illusion is so pretty, I really like the form of that one. I have one that this reminds me, beautiful flowers, but VERY slow to multiply. As in, 1 new scape in the 7 or 8 years I have had it. And not many flowers. I will replace it one of these days. I did not find my pictures of Get 'r Done or Get Jiggy, although Get Jiggy has not had much pattern yet like yours Heather.

    Really like Green Derby and Galaxy Explosion too.

    Sherry I like them all but Getting Airborne & GEI are especially nice.

    Heather Green Derby is fantastic as is Greywoods Painted Pony, I can see why it is a favorite.

    Nancy Green Rainbow is very nice and Gift from Heaven is a standout that I will just have to admire from afar.

    Get Jiggy flowered beautifully in a pot it's 1st year, 2nd year less pattern. I planted it last year so I am hoping it does well here. Yours is fabulous Heather.

    Debra, you did it again, what a lovely intro! Genie in a Bottle caught my eye, love the simplicity.

    Gypsy Cats is wonderful, especially in that clump shot! Grape Twizzler is a show off. Heather, you did get a good pattern on Get Jiggy. Does not do that often for me. Glass Bead Game has wonderful color. Nancy, gorgeous clump of Gift from Heaven! Worth the wait!

    Here are some of my G lilies:


    Golden Child-one of my favs


    Gwendolyn Rose-such a beautiful color and a huge flower


    Get R Done

    Gilded by Grace-as Nancy said, slow multiplier

  • 6 years ago

    And now my Get Jiggy!

    I have had this plant for years in two places and this is the first time EVER I have had any pattern. And some wonky coloration. Pattern occurred on two blooms.


    Then the rest looked like this. Even the color faded.


    And this is one of the clumps. It is just ho hum in the garden

  • 6 years ago

    Kate, I’m admiring your Get R Done and Grateful Heart blooms. Gilded by Grace looks lovely in your garden too.

    I would be terribly disappointed if I had added Get Jiggy in my garden, without the pattern there just isn’t anything special about it. I remember seeing it offered as a bagged selection in Costco a couple years ago for cheap.

    Sherry

  • 6 years ago

    Sherry, I received Get Jiggy as a bonus plant. I was excited to see patterns but never did! I split it and put one half in another location with more sun-still no pattern. I often don’t even photograph it in bloom as it looks no better to me than some much older cultivars I have with same coloration. I am glad Heather got the pattern on hers! Sometimes they are a gamble aren’t they?!!

    Gypsy Cats, Grateful Heart, and Gilded by Grace are my favorites today. We tried to grow Gilded by Grace, but it died.


    Here are my G's.


    Gary Lynn's Autumn Gold has intense colors, but it doesn't appear to be very vigorous.


    Gary Lynn's Calliopsis has a pretty face but it's not very vigorous either.


    Gaudeamus is never very pink in our garden.


    Gay Activist loses several scapes to blasting on the first round of bloom, but it reblooms well.


    Geometric Wizard is one of my favorites. I love the eye.


    George Jets On doesn't seem to like our climate very well.



    More to come . . .

    I really like Glowing Quasar.


    Greywoods Roseberry Sorbet was new to the garden this season. We bought a small clump at the Can Am for a reasonable price. I can't wait to see what it does this season.


    Gripping Power has an interesting flower, but it's not very vigorous.


    These next two come out of Gil Stelter's program of using varieties of Fulva crossed with modern daylilies. Gil worked mostly with ufs. Both of these are weeds--they grow like crazy. All of his hybrids with fulva in them have the prefix gryphon.


    Gryphon Carl Linnaeus


    Gryphon Chelsea London


    Guns of Navarrone is probably my favorite purple.


    Gypsy Rose Lee is not a very fancy flower, but I love the color.


    That's all for me.

    Nancy, Geometric Wizard is also my favorite. I wish the few slackers you have here would do better for you, they’re so nice.

    Celeste, Golliwog is my favorite, I remember it from previous posts and am liking more each time I see it. Green Icon is an attention getter, I’d like to see that one in person.

    So many that are so pretty. I went up and down the post and the 2 that caught my eyes most were Celeste's Green Icon-I think it is the most green I've seen in a daylily, and Heather's Glass Bead Game.

    Gadsden Goliath. Very early bloomer here.



    Grape Velvet [right] Bombay Silk left., back right Vintage Wine. Love the color combo.


    That's all for me.

    Nancy, peren., Sherry and Kate - Thanks for the compliments on Gypsy Cats! I've always liked the large bloom, and it's a pretty fast multiplier.


    Gilded by Grace is so pretty in two of your gardens. It grew well here for three seasons and died the fourth winter. I did love its look though.


    Celeste - Thanks for showing your photos of Getting Airborne! It's even darker in your garden than Sherry's.


    Hoosier Nan - Guns of Navarrone is a pretty purple, and I do like the color of Gypsy Rose Lee!

    Celeste, Golliwog seems to fit its name! I am glad you posted Glory in Red-I think my red bugs got to all my buds on mine last year but it is so big and so red!! And your Green Icon is so green!!

    Hoosier Nan-your Geometric Wizard is always special. But I do love that color on Guns of Navarrone!

    Brad, I agree with you on your color combo! Very nice!
