Roberts, Ned – 2005

Bloom 5” (13cm) x height 34” (86cm)

Early-Mid/Semi-Evergreen/Diploid & reblooms in UK

*Spider *

Black-red with light grape edge above green throat. Totally sunfast on hot days and looks lovely right into early evening.  Very good branching and budcount making a stunning clump.  It reliably sends up more scapes later in the season in UK.  One of the darkest daylilies I grow.

Trimmer – 1999

Early-Mid/Semi-Evergreen/Tetraploid

Bloom 5.25”(13cm) x height 26” (66cm)

Yellow with blue-purple eye, matching edge and yellow-green throat.  Very hardy and makes a nice clump quickly.  Good plant habits.

Bloom 5” x height 30”

Mid-Late/Dormant/Triploid

*Double*

Striking, heavily variegated foliage with orange-red hose-in-hose double blooms.  Vigorous and extremely hardy.  This is a variegated “sport” of the species native to Japan and China.  It is worth growing for the foliage alone.
