Polychrome Daylilies 2023

2 years ago

Show us your perky polychromes on this post. Polychromes have flowers that intermingle or blend many colors. Our next category will be Eyed Daylilies Without An Edge on Sunday.


Kentucky Lucky was my best performing polychrome last year. It's registered as a yellow peach polychrome, but it showed a lot of pink last season. The best scapes had bud counts in the 20s.



Techny Peace


Minstrel Singer is a peach and yellow polychrome.


Autumn Wood blends peach, lavender and pink colors together.


Temprorary and Eternal



Tall Blonde

    I only have a few polychromes, just hoping the photos i post are correct.

    Techny Spider is getting established.

    Sweet Autumn Mist, a bonus, a bit slow to multiply.

    Pizza Crust is a star in the garden, has rebloomed for me.

    I love polychromes.


    CARELESS DREAM: A Bennett intro which he said was one of his best and was one of his last intros. It is a beautiful flat 6.5 inch bloom.



    FINDER'S DELIGHT: Another Bennett intro.


    FRINGED SWEETHEART: Intensely fringed soft pink with yellow highlights.


    LEMON FRINGED PASTEL


    SABER TOOTH


    SUGAR CREAM PIE

    That's all from me.

    (Brad, Safari and Houzz seem to be getting along. I can't make heads or tails out of why they are playing nice together.)

    I find polychromes very attractive and have liked all the ones posted so far. My favorites are Smoky Mountain Autumn, Little Flock, Siloam bolden Gate, Careless Dream, Sugar Cream Pie, and Pizza Crust. And what gorgeous polychrome seedlings have been posted! Brad, what luscious color on Jolyene Nichole Smokey Mt. Autumn! Celeste, the very ruffled seedling out of Angels Gather Round is extraordinary! David, I especially like the seedling out of Bass Gibson for its colors and its toothy edge!


    Here is my ivory polychrome seedling out of Inimitable. I will probably register it if it does well after being lined out. I had hoped to get it lined out this fall, but with my husband's illness and death, it just didn't happen.


    It shows more colors when it's cool.

    I am not a fan of pastels so we don't have many polychromes here. Here are a few of ours.


    I didn't take this photo of Little Rainbow this season, but I had to include it since it was one of our first daylilies. I was drawn to the yellow/pink coloration of this simple little flower.




    Chitty Chitty Fang Fang has shadings of orange.



    I really like Glowing Quasar.


    Lemon Fringed Pastel is one of my favorite polychromes.


    Something in My Teeth did well last season.


    Tangerine Angel is a lovely small flowered daylily.


    That's all for me.

    Nan - I like Little Rainbow. I grew it for many years before moving out most of my miniatures. I also like the colors on Something in My Teeth.
