Blooming on Wednesday

Things are heating up here, temperature wise and new daylilies opening. We still have more seedlings blooming than named varieties but that is par for the course.


Broadway Player is one of my favorite Broadways. It has a perfect little plant habit and such lovely flowers.


Heavenly Tiger Tails is a great grower.


Pat Garrity has such great color.


Serenade of Springtime is such a pretty small-flowered daylily.


We really love Snidely Whiplash. It does very well for us.


More to come . . .

    Orange Blossom Trail doesn't like our climate much, but it looked good today.

    Spacecoast Cheese Whiz was planted last season. It is a small-flowered one.

    Time in a Bottle had three lovely blooms today so I just had to post it again.

    Seedling Queen was a bit hard to identify today. There were several we really liked, but Bob and I disagreed on which of these two was best. I'll let you decide.

    This is Love for Jesus X Tet. Rose F. Kennedy, which was Bob's pick.


    My pick was Running for the Border X (Lavender Oasis X Tet. Rose Kennedy. I like the shape of it better.


    The red and white ones are beginning to bloom. Here are a couple of today's flowers.

    Catching Fire X (Empire of Dawn and Dusk X Ruby Lipstick)

    Remembered Kisses X (Empire of Dawn and Dusk X Ruby Lipstick)


    That's all for me today.

    You had me with your picture of Broadway Player. Such a saturated rose red. Will have to check that one out. I like to have a couple of small ones around.....I think I'll tip my hat to Bob's pick on the seedlings. I like ruffles and it has them, plus the color is to me deeper looking............Maryl

    My favorites today are Broadway Player, I like a nice small one too and Cheese Whiz. I like the edge on Cheese Whiz, another silly name. I like Bob’s seedling Queen the best today.

    I like Snidely Whiplash, and I really like the second red and white seedling...I like thecolor on both seedlings, but Bob's is more my pick, sorry.

    Snidely Whiplash has such a nice color. I like the form on Pat Garrity and the color appears intense. Broadway Player has a great look!! I am not choosing between the seedlings because I would be happy to see both in my garden!!! :)

    I really appreciate early bloomers, even if they don't always perform perfectly with cool nights. There's nothing like being first. How long does Snidely Whiplash continue?

    Broadway Player and Snidely Whiplash both have lovely colors. As the Queen Seedling of the Day, I'll take the second one because I like the color and shape better. Both of the red and white ones appeal to me!

    Broadway Player and Snidely Whiplash are my favorites of the regular daylilies. Love the form and color of both.

    The first two seedlings, both your and Bob's pick, are my favorites of them. Especially your pick.Your pick and Snidely are my top 2.

    Mantis, I don't keep track of blooming as closely as you probably do, but I went back in my hybridizing records and found that last year Snidely was blooming on the 19th of June. The last entry for Snidely was July 24th. I believe it rebloomed, but I couldn't be sure of that.

    Nancy,


    I don't like small flowers, but Broadway Player looks really good. I also like the looks of SNIDELY WHIPLASH. Thanks for sharing.
