( photo / image / picture from Karrma's Garden ) These were given to me by a friend, when he was dividing them. I need to divide mine now, and planning on giving some away. Anyone know their names? ( photo / image / picture from Karrma's Garden ) ( photo / image / picture from Karrma's Garden )
With thousands of cultivars in existence and many more being introduced each year it is a daunting task to come up with a correct ID for a daylily. Unless there is a striking feature then 'close' may be the best that can be done. Your first photo reminded me of one that I have in my garden. Photos, themselves can be a challenge in that color rendition is effected by several variables. The basic photo exposure and lighting or flash can greatly change the actual coloring. Computers also can influence the final photo representation. Anyway here is the daylily I had in mind: http://www.gardenstew.com/plantstew/gar ... r_id=10953 Jerry
Karma--I agree with Jerry. It is next to impossible to identify all but the very very common daylilies, like Hyperion & Stella D'Oro. But, that third daylily is unusual enough that you might be able to identify it by using one of the on-line daylily catalogs, such as Seawright Gardens (http://www.daylilies-hostas.com/ What do you think, Jerry? I just checked Seawright's search criteria, and unfortunately they do not have s 'striped' option, but maybe another daylily house would. Good luck!
Probably one of the more extensive sites is the American Hemerocallis Society www.daylily.org their database has a lot of info Searwright is good but as I an 6 miles away I would just take the picture there and ask him. Of course then I couldn't leave the place without buying something. Jerry
stratsmom--You might be right. I have a Kwanzo that looks differently, but I just googled Kwanzo's and there seems to be much variation among them. When I bought it, I was told it was a species daylily.
Thank you all for helping. Lucky that I am 3000 miles from that store, else I would probably buy out the daylily section. I have been looking at the catalogs for the repeat blooming daylilies for a couple of years now.
