41" VL 7" Dormant, diploid, UF – Crispate

After many years, I decided to introduce this Fred Benzinger seedling. It is a gold-cream self, Unusual Form crispate with a distinctly triangular shape. It starts blooming when almost every daylily has finished and blooms for 4 or 5 weeks here in decent conditions. It has strong scapes, is fertile, and easily grows in most conditions. It takes drought, heat, cold, and rain with ease. Has thrived below zero, frozen for 3 months, and survived over 100 in the summer. It has 5 branches, and about 25 buds in decent but average conditions. It does do instant rebloom here, extending the bloom season. It makes a showy clump, and is as faithful and dependable as a Golden Retriever.

When I walked out of the house on July 12, 2000 to do my hybridizing, I was shocked, then got goosebumps. I knew that this flower was THE ONE. I was so excited that I left work early that day to see how it looked and to take photos. The next day, about 5 people were as excited as me. I was going to name it something cool with snow in the name. Margo asked me to name it for her. Actually, didn't ask ... It is a very light creamy pink on cool mornings. Most days, and all hot days, it is a cream white. The edge is very ruffled and whiter than the petals. The throat is chartreuse to green. I registered it conservatively with 3 branches and 19 buds. It can have many more with good culture. The scapes come up at different times, ensuring a long bloom season. It does some rebloom two weeks later. The parents are some of the best for ruffles and late bloom. It is a good parent. It proliferates heavily, down in the foliage. Two minor faults - it blooms just at the top of the foliage and sometimes has too many buds on the scapes to allow them to open freely. IT PROUDLY WON AN Award Of Merit, an Honorable Mention before that, and in 2016, the Lennington All America Award.

(Reed, 2017 Fall) 50" MLa 7" dormant, diploid,
Unusual Form Crispate. 2 branches, 16 buds

Another seedling from David Metzger, raised here at Woodhenge Gardens and selected for introduction! I am not currently locating the paperwork for parentage from five years ago, so it is registered as unknown, but it may be discovered eventually. The lovely large soft orange blooms are on tall 50" scapes. The petals pinch, and the ruffled sepals gently recurve. The color begins as an intense gold-orange in the throat, which blends into a softer orange with darker veins, and then lightens toward the outside edges of the petals. The lighter edges fade to almost white on hot days. The showy blooms are presented face-outward on the upright scapes. Pod fertile.
