Polymerous Blooms

La Plata, MD(Zone 7a)

Chief Four Fingers is registered as polymerous, but disappoints quite often in our garden,. This is a nice example of when it does.
Caribbean Whipped Cream is not registered as poly, but often is in our garden. We like it a lot either way.
Give Me Eight is registered as Poly and usually is.
Octomom is registered as poly and almost always is.

I just think it makes them special. We had one called So Many stars a few years ago that had five of each and it was really spectacular.

I may sound dumb, but what causes polies? BEV

La Plata, MD(Zone 7a)

Some cultivars that do it a lot have been hybridized to have that trait. Many others do it occasionally, but I'm not sure that the cause is really known. Just enjoy when it appears.
Zip Boom Bah did it in our garden today.

We Have Grown 'CLEO by Hayward 1938' for a number of years now, my son got it from his friend Robin at Earlybird Daylilies in Garden City Kansas about 5 years ago, he won 10 blooming size fans from her. We now have 2 huge 3ft x 3ft clumps of it on each side of the backyard. we had divided 3 fans off one of the main clumps 2 years ago and planted it coming up our driveway. This was the very first Poly Bloom we have ever had of it about 3 weeks ago on the driveway clump in late June 2014 and might be the last because ive talked to some people about it who also grow Cleo and they said they have never seen theirs Poly.
