A few select seedlings from 2017 summer.

"Just Sandra"

"JUST SANDRA"

(Hassler 2018)

This is the only daylily I have registered since late 2015.  I've continued to grow out a crop of seedlings annually for consideration and selection and hope to have a few more to register this fall. 'Just Sandra' just called out for a name...and one occurred to us as we heard a dear friend introduce herself as 'Just Sandra'.  She and this daylily have a lot in common...real beauty and true substance. I've watched and enjoyed it for 4 or 5 years now.  It has a garden presence with its clear color, great plant habit, good scapes and consistency.

It stats are: 31" scapes, 7.50" blooms, tet, 4 branches, 17-20 buds.  I describe its color as pale peach with darker peach eyezone.  Its parentage involves several seedlings and two cultivars I have previously registered.  ((Joy Dawns Bright x Hidden Manna) x ((Spice Hunter x Igor) x Joy Dawns Bright)).

(Volcanic Eruption x Curious George)

tet, sev, emo, m, 3 branches, 12 buds, 40" 10"

Bright orange with lighter eyezone and slightly ruffled matching edge. 
The Hayden to whom this 'Hundley' belongs is Alexander Hayden Campbell, our #4 grandson.  He loved Curious George as a wee fella, so I bought the plant 'Curious George' (Peat) for him.  He and I did a cross with it and he wanted to name an offspring 'Hundley' after Curious George's dog friend.

Our #5 grandson, Levi Graham Lindsay, age 5, is the name inspiration for this daylily.  His Mom, our daughter, Jenni, has always called him 'Graham Chop' (rhymes with 'Lamb Chop') as a pet name.  He chose this flower as his when he was 3 yrs. old  and would go stand beside it when he found it in bloom and loudly proclaim, 'this is Levi's flower'

'the time of the singing of birds'

The rain is over and gone.

The time has arrived for pruning the vines, 
And the voice of the turtledove has been heard in our land."

'ANNA BANANA'

((Spice Hunter x Igor) x Joy Dawns Bright)

This daylily is named to honor our oldest granddaughter... Anna Brooke Christopher.  From the time she was quite tiny, we have rhymed her name with 'banana'.  The sunny colors of this bloom remind me of her sunny disposition.

Polymerous bloom - often takes this form.



(Berry Patch x Soul on Fire)



'LILY GRACIOUS'

This daylily is named to honor our youngest granddaughter....Lillian Grace Lindsay....who always, when younger, referred to herself as 'Lily Gracious'....the name and the flower definitely match this precious girl!

The name for this flower was suggested by our daughter, Jenni. 'Not too shabby' is always her 'go to' phrase for anything she finds acceptable!





(White Unto Harvest x J T Davis)

'WHITE STONE'

This flower has so much clarity and also sturdy texture and substance.....'White Stone' seems appropriate.  Revelations 2:17.....a white stone is part of the promise of reward for those faithful overcomers.

(Grace From Above x Cherokee Pass)

'LOUDEST PRAISE'

This flower is such a bright and reliable early morning/cold morning opener....the sight of it causes me to give praise every day it blooms!
