last modified: 6 months ago

Show us your O daylilies today. I only have a few.

olallie Keith is a late season bloomer. It has been slow to establish.



Olfactory Evidence is my latest bloomer….starts in August and blooms into september. The first photo shows the bud count…..second shows the blooms.




Orange Smoothie…my second attempt and a success.

    I'm so glad Orange Smoothie took off for you. It certainly likes whatever you are doing now. Gorgeous shot. Such a good daylily for me too..........My contribution to the O's is an old favorite that I've had for ages. It's tender here with my pot system, so it is awarded a spot each winter in my garage. An early bloomer for me:

    Orchids and Gold:

    I really like Orange Smoothie and Orchids and Gold.


    OUR FRIEND OLIN: Big ruffly pink. I love it

    Sherry, Orange Smoothie is a pretty one. It looks happy in your garden. Maryl, I always love your photos of Orchids and Gold. David Our Friend Olin is beautiful.



    Olallie Keith is a late bloomer for me

    Sherry & Kate, I really like Olallie Keith. Maryl, Orchids and Gold is a great color combo. Debra, Open Door has a nice edge and eye, very showy. David, I like Our Friend Olin.

    Kate, Oh the Places We Will See is a very interesting color combo.

    Olallie Autumn Gold. It is very late, one of the last. I moved it this year as it hasn't done well in years, and it never has been a great bloomer.

    Orange Velvet clump. It had a really good year this year.

    Orchid Corsage

    Orange Velvet x Christopher Russell, 2 varieties. The one in front has huge numbers of blooms, the yellow one is quite good.

    Orange Velvet x Christopher Russell 3, very tall and well budded.

    I like Ollalie Keith and Orchids and Gold. We grew Orchids and Gold for awhile but it was too tender for us.


    I have only 3 to post. The first is Olive's Odd One.


    We grow this as On the Lookout. I know the color doesn't match the description in the ADS database (no photo) but it does match the photo in National Gardening Association. It is a small flower.



    This is a seedling that was a bonus with the name 'Orange Stripe'. We are not sure if it is a dip or tet, but we assumed dip and set some seeds with it as pollen parent. We will see if any germinate.


    That's all I have.

    Orange Velvet is a nice flower. The plant is a bit of a space hog here.

    Moldovan's One Last Dance


    Hanson's One for Steve


    Korth's Once and for All has yet to prove itself. I wonder what Nancy's experience is.


    Orange Electric, an older Stamile, blooms fairly early. It is indeed an electric coloration (which this pic doesn't capture that well).

    Omega Red is an excellent Gossard with sturdy stems.

    Brad, you know me and the yellows. I really like the yellow Orange Velvet seedling.

    Mantis, the red of Omega Red appears quite striking. Comparison with All American Chief in terms of height and performance?

    Taller than All American Chief, but to me, All American Chief is a good height. Omega Red is four-feet tall and a ML bloomer. AA Chief is early midseason. Both have performed well. OR is a bigger, more sprawling plant. Segments a bit narrower.

    David: Our Friend Olin is a real eye catcher with that salmon pink color and ruffles....Kate: Olillie Keith is pretty with a distinct coloration........Debra: Open Door has 4 nice looking blooms.....Brad: Your Orange Velvet hybrids show promise. I lean towards the bi color in the group picture.........Nan: Olives Odd one is indeed different. Although you know I like orange, this seems to have a mottled orange color......... Mantis: Omega Red looks to be a bright red color right up my ally...........Maryl
