All three have wonderful edges but when Armed to the Teeth is not splotchy, what a bloom you have! Blood of the Martyrs is a really pretty purple! And rebloom on top of pretty!

Three really lovely daylilies!

All 3 are beautiful and you must be pleased to have rebloom. I especially like the first one.

Wow, Blood of the Martyrs Just doesn’t want to stop, three sets of scapes! It looks like today was “fantastic edge” day, all three are lovely. Does Batking open well all of the time???

Kate - Armed to the Teeth is like Private Selection here. Most of the blooms are splotchy, but when you get a clean one, it's a definite wow.

Celeste - I have several Emmerich purples, but I think Blood of Martyrs is the very best one I've seen.

Sherry - Yes, Blood of the Martyr wants to keep blooming. Who knows if it will ever do this again? It was likely heavily fertilized by Emmerich, and then it got fertilzed again by me. Bat King seems to open well, but sometimes it's splotchy. I don't like it as well as my other purple toothy cultivars. I bought it mainly for hybridizing reasons, but it has weak pollen and hasn't been able to keep a pod.

I can't decide from pictures how I feel about Emmerich's purples. So many of them have a dark color that just looks flat. Others are as she describes it, cranberry purple. 99% of the time purple here translates into maroon, so I'm not sure how any of them would work for me. I'll have to find room to trial a few some day. Yours are gorgeous Debra. I would welcome any of them into my garden if they looked like that..............Maryl

Such beauties! I can't decide which I like the best.

Nancy

those are all lovelies, Debra! You know me, I especially like the red one, but they are all appealing. I think in really like the edges on Bat King.

Armed to the Teeth is so pretty with the white edge. i'm sending you an email through Houzz.

Julia

Thanks for all the comments! I'm really enjoying seeing these again.

Debra

And all 3 gorgeous!

I was hoping for some rebloom this year but no. Well except the usual Stella and Happy Returns which are so short..

Nat - I do have some rebloom this year, but many of the ones that always rebloom for me have not this time. The seedling beds are the only ones I regularly water, and it's been very dry for most of the summer.
