EPHEMERAL BEAUTY -- (Empress Adored) x (Lost
in the Mist) x (Easter Egg x Morning Moonlight) Sev.
6-7” fl. 28” sc. M 21 buds. Cold hardy, good rust tolerance, fertile both ways, reblooms. One of our main
breeding goals is to paint patterns onto each primary
color pallet. We begin with a large full form lemon self.
The green throat is surrounded by an orange eye with an
unusual bracket pattern outlined by a dark orange mascara
band that continues as a picotee around the petal edge.
Surrounding the picotee edge is a third bubbly ruffled
golden edge. We have used this variety to bring sophisticated patterns and edges to bright blossoms and love the
pretty results. The comic tragedy of all daylilies plays out
one at a time, gorgeous today and gone tomorrow. $150
DEEPER MEANING -- (Send Me A Rainbow x Cobalt
Rings) Sev. 6” fl. 29” sc. M 28 buds. Cold hardy, excellent
rust tolerance, fertile both ways, reblooms. The blue violet
eye of this variety ruptures into concentric patterns around
the yellow throat with a green heart, letting the antique white
self color shine through from the depths. The same pattern
is mimicked on the sepals. The lush eye zone tone continues
around the edges as a picotee with a gold wire edge. We
give high marks to this variety for a long bloom time, high
bud counts on tall scapes, a beautiful edge, and a consistently strong “ring” patterns on each bloom from beginning to
end of its flowering period. $150
EULA FLUELLEN -- (Scarlet Angel x Scarlet
Peacock) x (Velvet Throne x Leo Lazar) Sev. 6.5”
fl. 32” sc. E 25 buds. Cold hardy, good rust tolerance, fertile both ways, reblooms. These bold
blooms display a dark red self above a green throat
with bubbly gold edges. This color really stands
out in the garden, often attracting attention from
across the field. Also remarkable is the tall scape
which constitutes another salvo in our “war against
the scape”. We want great flowers on great scapes
and this variety certainly fits the bill. It’s not surprising, therefore, that a versed daylily aficionado,
Eula Fluellen of Georgia, chose this hybrid as her
namesake. A special flower named for a wonderful lady. $175
