The outside bloom season has been excellent so far. Like many other parts of the country, the scapes are top budded with very little branching. From the past seasons, I know that this is not typical of these seedlings. I will watch them another year and hope next year's weather is more friendly. I really like the saturated color, the blue eye and the round form that I prefer.

The triple edge on this seedling is special.
I hope you enjoy looking at these seedlings. To me, this is what daylilies are all about, hybridizing and the first sight of the resulting crosses.
