H. 'Dancing With The Stars ’ ...................................s/f ... $65.00 ... d/f ... $100.00
30" M SEv Re 6". Four-way branching, 23 buds.
Elegance and grace are what this flower is all about, like the hit TV show,
“Dancing With The Stars”. The large 6” flower is a cream blushed
lavender with medium ruffling and crimping. The citron ruffling matches
the citron throat which leads to a green heart. The substance is just as
heavy as it looks in the picture and stands up well in sun and rain. The
form is round and full with petals that are 3¼” and the sepals are 2”.
Really a nice clean color. This cultivar is fertile both ways in the
greenhouse. DWTS has a very good plant beneath the flower. The foliage
is arching and a dark green. Seedling No. 8070 (Victorian Lace X Wonder
Of It All)

H. 'Glenn Miller’ ...............................................................s/f ... $65.00 ... d/f ... $100.00
37" M SEv Re 5½". Three-way branching, 18 buds.
A flower of impeccable form, H. ‘Glenn Miller’ was one of the show flowers in
the garden. The flower is a cream polychrome with overlays of lemon and
pale pink. Petal and sepal edges are heavily ruffled and crimped and the
flower is lightly sculpted. The color of the flower emphasizes the lime green
throat. Named for the famous band leader, who in my opinion, still has some
of the best music around. The foliage is a dark green and of medium width
The substance is exceptionally heavy and holds well in the rain and sun.
Plant habit is excellent, and it increases fairly rapidly. Pod and pollen fertile.
Petals are 3", sepals 2". Seedling No. 0755 (Awesome Bob X Wonder Of It All)

H. 'Groovin’ ’ .......................................................................s/f ... $65.00 ... d/f ... $100.00
30" M SEv Re 6¼". Three-way branching, 17 buds.
One of our long line of sculpted seedlings and probably the heaviest sculpting
of all. The grooves appear to be carved out with a chisel. If you look at most
sculpting in this color range, you will think the raised area of the sculpting is a
different color. However, upon close scrutiny, it is the same color as the
flower but the sculpting creates this optical illusion. The flower is a
polychrome of maize and pink overlaying ivory. The flower can be funky-like in
the image, or it can be a round, full form. The petal edges are heavily ruffled.
The substance is like cardboard and holds up well in the sun. Pod and pollen
fertile. Petals are 3", sepals 1¾". Seedling No. 0624 (Doc Branch X Bas Relief)

H. 'Juanita Manley’ ..........................................................s/f ... $65.00 ... d/f ... $100.00
27" M SEv Re 6". Four-way branching, 25 buds.
This cultivar was chosen by our sister-in-law, Juanita Manley, of Cranberry
Township, PA to carry her name. The bloom is a very saturated cherry red
with an ivory watermark and ruffles. One of the clearest cherry reds that I
have seen. The substance is very good and holds up well except in very hard
rains. The plant habit is very good. It is pod and pollen fertile in the
greenhouse and we have some very nice kids coming. Petals are 2½" and
sepals are 1¾". A very showy flower in the garden. Seedling No. 0726

H. 'Memories Of Mother’ .................................................s/f ... $65.00 ... d/f ... $100.00
29” M SEv Re 5½”. Five-way branching, 27 buds.
For generations, mothers have been growing yellow daylilies in their perennial
gardens. How the yellow has evolved! It is no longer the narrow petaled, lightly
branched and budded daylily of the past, but a full, overlapped form with good
branching and bud count. Our first daylilies were the lemon colored daylily
from Jean’s mother’s garden that we brought to Tennessee many years ago.
H. ‘Memories Of Mother’ is a perfectly full-formed daylily of crisp lemon yellow
with 3” lightly ruffled petals and 2” wide, blunt sepals. This self ends with an
olive green throat. The substance is very heavy and stands up well in the sun
and rain. H. 'Memories Of Mother’ would be a great addition to “Mother’s”
garden. Fertile both ways in the greenhouse.
Seedling No. 0651 (Macho Macho Man X Wonder Of It All)

H. 'Rockets Bursting In Air’ .....................................s/f ... $65.00 ... d/f ... $100.00
27" M SEv Re 6". Four-way branching, 25 buds.
This has been one of my favorites since first bloom in 2007. I thought long
and hard for the perfect name and H. 'Rockets Bursting In Air’ seemed to
fit. The bloom is very clean and smooth and the color is a saturated
magenta. The Ivory midribs give the impression of “Rockets bursting in
air.” The watermark of ivory accentuates the explosion. The edges of the
petals are very smooth with a fine band of ivory. The substance is heavy
and holds up well. Pod and pollen fertile in the greenhouse. Seedling No.
07100 (Pure Indulgence X Painting The Roses Red).

H. 'Rooty Tooty’ ................................................................s/f ... $65.00 ... d/f ... $100.00
33" M SEv Re Fr 6". Three-way branching, 19 buds.
The flower is a near white with a wash of azalea pink. It has the beginning of
an eyezone of subtle rose ending with a lemon throat and a lime heart. The
petal edges are a light yellow and are very heavily ruffled and crimped and
the flower shows some subtle sculpting. There is light ruffling on the sepals.
The substance is exceptionally heavy and holds well in the rain and sun.
Plant habit is excellent and it increases fairly rapidly. It is a showy flower in
the garden, and it can be seen from a long distance. This flower was pod and
pollen fertile for us in the greenhouse. Petals are 3¼", sepals 2". Seedling
No. 8057 (How Beautiful Heaven Must Be X Wonder Of It All)

28" M SEv Re LFr 5¾". Four-way branching, 19 buds.
Named for my favorite college basketball team. The flower always opens
well and the above picture was taken in late September on the third set of
scapes after a 55° night. The color is orange creamcicle and shows a pale
honey orange over cream. There is a tuscan infusion in the halo which is
repeated on the heavily ruffled edges. The substance is exceptionally
heavy and holds well in the rain and sun. Plant habit is excellent and it
increases fairly rapidly. One of the show flowers in the garden. Petals are
2¾", sepals are 1½". Seedling No. 0545 (Enchanted Dreams X Candied

2010 was a trying year for growing daylilies. We had a lot of early rain, then the spigot was
shut off. At one point were 13 inches below normal in rainfall. In spite of all of this, the
daylilies performed well in the garden. The blooms were glorious though maybe a little
short on numbers. Rebloom was rare this year.
We are pleased to offer you eight new introductions for 2010. All are hardy field grown
plants surviving several below freezing nights. Our nursery is state inspected. All plants are
guaranteed to be true to name.
SPECIAL - Purchase our entire 2011 collection of eight double fan
daylilies for $600.00, a savings of $200.00. Plus, we will pay the shipping.
