and 'Passionate Heart':
Polys Polys.. I need Polys
LaLambchop - this is FFO on a seedling under very dry conditions. Still it is larger than Crown of Creation. I do not have Lemonberry Truffle - bought the seeds from Tribble" before she moved south in 2005, I think it is Kate Fearnoghty (sp?) I have about 5 plants - the first to plant to bloom was extra large with an intense green throat - but was not a poly - more bagel like.
sybiltwo - You really lucked out with the polys this year!
I have heard that Carribbean Whipped Cream throws Poly's.. gorgeous!
Oh, beautiful, I need to get Caribbean Whipped Cream. I am a patsy for the whites anyway.
So pretty. I am learning all the time on Dave's. I hope to add some cultivars that poly often.

This one is an unknown-about 8 1/2 inches bloom on short stalk that is surrounded by so much stuff that I cannot reach down to find that there isn't a tag anyway!!
This is its' first bloom, hoping that there are more buds, because I am running so far ahead on bloom stuff, that there will be little in Aug.
wow se-eds that one is just wondreful love it
Gloria
se_eds, does Fashion Gossip do that a lot?
Sybil2, Love your Forged in Fire! Outstanding.
LaLambchop - Fashion Gossip was new this year and every bloom is a double. It is such a pretty color.
I have these. I call them a triple ditch lily but I don't know the real name. Bev
What is a poly? A lily used for pollinating another? BEV
Your daylily looks like Kwanso.
A polypetal is a hem that has more than three petals and sepals.
I am sorry. I know nothing about daylilies. Could you explain a little better for my wee brain. I have two but would like to get more. BEV
Generally, a daylily flower has three larger sections-petals, and three more narrow sections behind the petals-sepals. When a daylily has poly petals there are more than three of each. If you scroll up and look at the photos posted, some have four of each and some have more. It may be easiest to count the "pointed" sections around the outside.
August Frost had a great 5X5 polu one year. Never since.
