Reed, 2007 - 48" M 7" dor. Dip. Elegant dark black red, well branched

Tall, dark, and well-branched, this cultivar out of Chief Black Hand and Planet Max carries on their grand tradition. The blooms are large and dark wine-red toward black. The scapes are erect and nicely branched, with a good bud count. It won best seedling in the NCDC show in 2006 (Washington DC area). The blooms are elegant and narrow, with gentle ruffling. Yellow to green throat, sunproof, fertile.

Murphy, '05 - 34" M 6" dor.dip. Red with yellow midribs and wide cream edge, only 2 left

Red with a wide, creamy, ruffled edge, yellow to cream midrib, and yellow throat. This flower is a step forward in color patterns for spidery daylilies. The creamy edge is very wide, and the pattern is very unusual. It did attract a lot of attention in the garden this year. The foliage is good, the increase is very good, and it blooms well in drought or rainy weather, yet I almost didn't introduce it. Why? It is under my threshold for budcount and branching, with a budcount of 8 to 13, and little or no branching. It is very striking, and three experienced hybridizers thought that it should be introduced anyway. A very photogenic flower, and a great grower in poor conditions. It is a good parent, fertile both ways.

Reed, 2005 - 42" M 7" dor.dip. Pale gold with dark wine-red eye, yellow throat

Named after my favorite daughter, the softball player, this daylily has a black eye! The bloom is very ruffled and has a narrow, exotic form. The dark wine-red/black eye is in high contrast to the pale gold/parchment background color. There is the slight beginning of a picotee edge in the dark color. This daylily presents many different faces, but it is always very showy in the garden. Fertile both ways and often reblooms.
