Re: [SG] changing daylily color

Hmm,   Friends,

Not sure I understand, Clyde about the comment, but if you were
suggesting crossing the H fulva with another daylily- it is believed
to be sterile....or almost so.  It was the beginning of the hybrids,
but poor ole Dr Stout did thousands of crosses to get some seeds....


Better luck with the newer hybrids.

Also friends please note - that the old fulva and other species like
Kwanso- the double one or the variegated one, are spreaders and not
clumpers.  one should not plant other hybrid daylilies too close
since the runners go underground over 2 ft.  And would even come up
into other plants...


although I grow a lot of daylilies - I still have my stances of fulva
and kwanso daylilies.  Gramma would be pleased!
