Roger Herr,  an orchid lavender with a yellow throat and a voluptuous pleated yellow edge, may be my best introduction to date.  it has the attributes of a hardy northern-bred daylily that are my goals:  a long bloom season, exceptional branching and budcount, blooms that are uniform in size, very ruffled, and that blooms well above the foliage. Named for our wonderful son, Roger Herr is a very special daylily. it has branching and budcount of a show winner. It is a striking flower and a garden favorite. E, 35", 5.5" 6-way branching, 25-40 buds, Ext., Dor., Tet., Knights in White Satin X Spacecoast Starburst. Limited supply.                              $125.00 DF Her Marvelous Eyes  is a large cream with a large plum eye and bubbly edge. With its height and striking eye and its consistently formed flowers, it is often the first to command the attention of garden visitors. Sometimes, the bold eye seems to have a triangular shape. The eyes have it. A fine addition to any collection. E, 33", 6.75", four-way branching, 25 buds, Re., Dor., Tet., Seedling X Seedling. Limited supply.                          $75 DF Mary Jane Herr  is a large recurved peach with great substance. It is a beauty. Named for my delightful sister who shares my love of daylilies, Mary Jane Herr has a clear peach color and a smooth but ribbed surface when it opens early in the morning. Large multiple blooms are well supported on strong scapes from large plants. It puts on quite a show. ML, 28", 6.5", 4-way branching, 22 buds, Dor, Tet., Cause For Pause x Splendid Touch.  $75  DF

  Jolly Good Fellow  is a burgundy lavender beauty with great color and form. Jolly Good Fellow has been a favorite of mine since its maiden bloom. it has the branching and budcount of a show winner and the plant habit of a garden standout. it blooms over a long period of time, resembling a bud builder.  Substance and color are sunfast. E, 34", 4.25"', six-way branching, 35-40 buds. Canterbury Tales x Spacecoast Sweetness. Dor., Tet.      $100.00 DF

Auld Lang Syne,  is a large red bitone with a gold edge and a yellow to green throat. Tall, sturdy scapes support the six-inch blooms which are uncommonly large for a bitone. A memorable flower with exceptional plant habit. An early morning opener. A fine addition to the mid to late season bloomers. Cold hardy. ML, 36", 6", three-way branching, 22 buds.

 Ed Brown x Spacecoast Blastoff. Dor., Tet.                           $50.00 DF

 

Jan Thompson A cream white with a gold edge. Named in honor of a good friend and daylily aficionado from region III who often admired this seedling and repeatedly asked when it would be introduced. Because of its narrow tepals, it could easily be taken to Unusual Forms to create bubbly gold edges, a new direction in UF's. ML, 29", 6", four-way branching, 15 buds, Sev., Tet., Admiral's Braid x With This Ring. $50 double fan
Kitty Kitty  is a cream white with a red eye and a red bubbly edge. This sibbling to Strawberry Icing is whiter and contrasts mmore dramatically with its red eye and edge. Kitty Kitty is a rebloomer, a desireable trait for an extended season in the north. M, 35", 5", four-way branching, 21 buds. Re., Dor., Tet. Strawberry Candy x Strawberry Lace. Very limited supply.              $75.00 DF
