I daylilies 2021

Let’s see your I daylilies, only a few for me.

Quote of the day: “You know you’re getting old when you stoop to tie your shoelaces and wonder what else you could do when you’re down there”...........George Burns

Indian Giver had a great season. it’s in all day sun after moving it in spring of 2019. It rebloomed for me last season.

Itza Pink Teddy is a great all around performer here. I had rebloom and it won the bud count in 2019. 2020 season wasn’t quite as good. Less than stellar blooming was common last season for a lot of my daylilies.

I was thinking about putting ICE Carnival on the chopping block. It’s one of only two whites I have and realized this past season that it starts blooming when my mids are almost finished. It got a reprieve till I find something that fits the same mold.

    Sherry - The Indian Giver clump is impressive, and I like Itza Pink Teddy too!


    Here are some of mine:


    I'm Gonna Love You Through It



    Ice Cream Emperor



    In Search of Angels



    Inviting Romance


    Indian Ripple

    Sherry, no one beats your clump shot pictures of Indian Giver. I have had it for years and it still barely blooms and I often forget about it. Yours always looks wonderful. And Debra, ice Cream Emperor reminds me that I have to move mine this spring. Your photos of it have convinced me it needs to be in a better spot rather than in a tree crowding area.

    Indian Giver looks great for you Sherry. It was one of the first daylilies I grew but I didn't care for how it looked after a full day of our sun so I moved it out. Itza Pink Teddy has tempted me more then once. I like that you gave it a performance report. It will go on my list.......Debra: I'm Gonna Love You Through It looks great. I almost always like selfs, but this pattern is one I think tempts me if I could find a rust free source. Ice Cream Emperor is fabulous with that form and edge. Do you like it? Indian Ripple is one of my backbone daylilies. Can't imagine my garden without it. Nice shot of it................Maryl

    Indian Giver looks great in your clump, Sherry, and your Indian Ripple has lovely Colors, Debra. I have a few I plants although I whined about some of them not doing well last year due to the Japanese Maple pulling out nutrients.

    Maryl - I love Ice Cream Emperor, but it is an evergreen that probably wouldn't fare well in a pot. It always opens well here and is a terrific rebloomer.

    Kay - It's good to see Integrated Logistics! I forgot about that one.

    Integrated Logistics



    Infinity & Beyond was new last year and showed some nice patternns in the early season.



    I also forgot I Lava You, last year's Stout Medal winner.



    Innocent Discovery only had a couple of blooms before it was wiped out by the deer.



    Inca Prince



    Indy Hustler is a nice late one!



    Indy Fling

    Indian Giver was one of the first we bought but it didn't stay here long. It was pretty, but in our garden, its performance was lacking--too short and not very good substance.


    Itza Pink Teddy was here for several years (it was a bonus) but the color of ours wasn't as pretty as Sherry's so it said bye bye too.


    I really like the color of Indian Ripple and Indigo Edge.


    I have only a few to share.


    I Dreamed a Dream is a small one, about 3.5 inches. You can see we are trying to breed with it since I picked the anthers. I really wish I would get the picture before I pick the anthers. The color is not as melon as its registration picture shows, but it fairly new and in too much shade. Maybe it will get better.


    I Lava You was recently moved after being in its first spot for only one year. I can't wait for it to get to clump strength to see how this Stout Medal winner will perform for us.


    Impassioned was new last spring and I am really excited about this one.


    Interview with a Vampire went into a decline after I put too many pods on it one year, but it is beginning to recover.


    Irish Vampire Fangs almost died its first season but is beginning to bounce back nicely. I think the photo makes the color prettier than it actually is.


    That's all for me.

    Impressionist Sky I got from Hoosier Nan's pics and it showed itself nicely last year.


    Inca Puzzle has managed to stay here despite its shortness.


    Intelligent Design


    Impassioned looks promising, but will see what it is at clump strength.


    Inimitable is lovely but slow growing.


    Ida Mae Munson is a large and lovely pastel.


    In My Pink High Heels provides welcome earlier bloom with nicely spaced flowers.


    Imperial Empress is an early-blooming Munson.


    Indian Giver is short, but has stayed.


    In the Heart of It All can give a lot of large flowers, with rebloom, in an intense rose.


    Imperial Lemon is a strong older yellow. Bud count is not large. It does take more space than I would like.

    Isabelle Rose A remarkable cultivar with sturdy stems and striking blooms.

    Hoosier Nan - Impassioned always grabs me.


    Mantis - Another great clump shot of Indian Giver. It died here. In the Heart of It All is a pretty one.

    Nancy, Interview with a Vampire is a gorgeous one. Mantis, your Indian giver is gorgeous and so is Sherry's. Mine went home with a friend and I hope it does better for her than it here. Debra, as always yours show up so beautifully. I got I Lava You in the fall and hope to see a bloom this year, but it is the sleep year so we will see.

    He are my Is:


    INDIAN GIVER: No need to add to what others have said about this one.


    INQUIRE WITHIN: As a poly. I love the subtle violet blue eye.



    IN HIGH REGARD: One of the prettiest in the mid-late garden. I love the simplicity of the bloom and the color combination.



    More to follow.

    Continued:


    INDY SHOCKER: I love this red one but it is difficult to photograph. This is one of the better photos, but it still does not capture the true color of this one.


    IRON WARRIOR: A Bud Bennett intro. I could not believe it when I saw this bloom. It is huge and a this color..


    ISABELLE ROSE: Wonderful near white. I have set many pods on this one and used it pollen.

    Wow Sherry what great clump of Indian Giver! Itza Pink Teddy Bear is terrific too. I am finally back on Gardenweb instead of Houzz, what a difference being able to see full photos without clicking.

    Debra I'm Gonna Love You Through It is particularly striking.

    Kay love that Indigo Edge & Island Time.

    Nancy love your & Debra's pic of I Lava You. Impassioned is really lovely.

    mantis Impressionist Sky is gorgeous. Another great clump of Indian Giver.

    David Inquire Within is special & Iron Warrior is fabulous. Love those green throated pinks.

    Ikebana Star is my only I.

    I just have a couple of minutes so I thought I'd do a quick check. Wow, on I already. I got the new power supply for my computer and still not working. It must be the motherboard, which is still under warranty. But it will take some time.

    Lots of great I's. Integrated Logistics is a real stand out.

    I remembered I have some pictures on my camera, but unlabeled. I was able to find one I,

    Indian Giver,

    I went on my Flickr account and found some I daylilies:

    Isolde, from several years ago. Loved it but it is gone due to lack of blooming.

    Note the burnt grass in the image above and the scrawny scape on this daylilies .....If we only had had some rain


    The difference in the colors in this early/mid bloom above and later in the season was dramatic
