Bloom size - 6”
Bloom size - The bloom size is measured across the face of the bloom when open flat. It can vary a little according to age of the plant, etc.
Height - 30”
Height - This is an approximate height of the flower stems. The foliage is usually lower.
Foliage type - Semi Evergreen
Foliage type -
Dormant means the leaves dies down completely in the winter.
Semi Evergreen varieties maintain some foliage over-winter.
Evergreen varieties may maintain all foliage over the winter. The foliage state can be influenced by the severity or otherwise of the winter period.
It is often said that dormant varieties are the absolute hardiest but all offered varieties have been extensively trialled here and all are hardy.
Ploidy - Tetraploid
Ploidy - In layman's terms ploidy is the number of chromosomes a variety has. Older varieties are nearly all diploids but modern day breeding techniques resulted in improved tetraploid varieties with three chromosomes. It is difficult to distinguish between them in general plant appearance, although diploids do have ever so slightly narrower foliage. As far as the blooms are concerned tetraploids have flowers with thicker, heavier substance and fuller form and are the very pinnacle of perfection and grandeur. Diploids are not so heavily textured and can be more graceful in appearance. They also tend to open earlier in the day even when it is colder. Diploids will usually grow and increase more quickly.

Holiday Delight
One of the older varieties that can compete with more modern cultivars for sheer pizazz and flower power. The large blooms are bricky-orange with a darker red eye. Nice slightly recurved form and plenty of sizeable flowers. Great in a border of "hot" colours. REMEMBER Select any 5 or more plants and receive a sixth FREE! The choice of bonus plant is mine but it will be named and I won't duplicate any ordered varieties.

House of Orange
One of my favourite orange flowered Daylilies with a surprisingly subtle tawny bittersweet orange colouring offset by a green throat. Good performer. Combine with Crocosmias, Rudbeckia and bronze leafed grasses for a superb effect. REMEMBER Select any 5 or more plants and receive a sixth FREE! The choice of bonus plant is mine but it will be named and I won't duplicate any ordered varieties.

Moses Fire
Immensely popular this grandiose super-sized double with it’s siren calling tomato red colouring and neat golden edge is quite impossible to ignore. Doubles 95% of the time with an average of 20 buds per scape – that’s a lot of bloom potential! Makes a robust clump – no prima-donna in the garden. Highly recommended double.

Orange City
Undoubtedly has "wow" factor for any area. Voluptuously recurved tiger orange with a huge Bengal red eye and edge. Taller stems only accentuate the siren power this one has – absolutely impossible to ignore. Whether you are looking for a feature plant, a speciality to add to the collection, or Daylilies for a border of ‘hot’ colours Orange City is the perfect candidate. Special.

Rags to Riches
The blooms appear much larger owing to the heavy tactile substance and very fulsome form. I love the warm earthy colours of Rags to Riches, being a blend of tawny orange and gold together with a heavily ruffled gold edge and deep olive green throat. Works extraordinarily well in colour schemes involving warmer colours and a variety of great breeding which always performs well in the border.

Wassaw Island
Fearsomely hot fiery orange with a molten lava eye. Absolutely impossible to ignore in the border, brightens lives and outlooks with it’s joie-de-vivre. Has good foliage and strong stems.
