(Murphy ‘09 )  52”   LRe, 6.5”   Dor Dip Cascade Unusual Form, ext.  Bright light purple, reddish lavender.

Yes, many people have hit hard times in the past two years. I decided to introduce this $100 daylily for half of that, because it grows very fast and it will let some of us buy it that maybe shouldn’t otherwise. In addition, if you purchase a $50 plant from us this season, you will get this in addition to another bonus. This very tall reddish lavender has a purple eye, cream edge, chartreuse throat, and instant rebloom, for a long season, starting one month after peak and going until mid September here. It is an EMO/CMO, good for cool nights and is sunfast at 98F.  Parentage unknown, but probably PLANET MAX and a seedling.  Fertile.

(Murphy ‘09)     41” ML  7”  Dor Dip Cascade Unusual Form,  ext., extremely clear-colored lavender bitone with purple veins on hot days.

This bloom is wide open on 50F mornings and sunfast at 100F. It starts blooming ML and blooms for over a month until mid to late August here. It has a lemon throat, with green heart, cream edge, and cream midribs. Two Branches, 16 buds, Fragrant. My third intro from MARGO REED INDEED by NORTH WIND DANCER, joining PANAMA PINK and CRUISE CONTROL.  It makes its place in the garden with steady, consistent performance in all weather. Fertile, limited.

(Murphy ‘09)   48” M   9”  Dor Dip ext. Red Spider.  

My long awaited first intro from BRILLIANT IDEA by KIRSTEN MADELAINE BURKEY is not to be missed in the garden. It starts blooming here about July 1st and bud builds until September 1st .  Unlike many red spiders, it is wide open on cool mornings at dawn and blooms until after dark. It has a red eye, green throat, lemon midrib, 5/1 spider ratio, and excellent foliage.  Fertile,
