Date: Sept. 6, 2024 Submitted by: Francois Verhaert, Spain - Email: francois.verhaert@gmail.com Daylily: This is Guy Pierce's JEWELED FOR ROYALTY. After 2.5 months of scorching heat temperatures have come down to the low 30's (Celcius) and I start to see some rebloom. I'm adding an oddity, viz HYMENOCALLIS festalis Zwanenburg - it is strikingly beautiful but the flowers last only around 1 week.

I was still in my 60s when I first evaluated it. Pushing 80 in a few weeks.

Date: July 5, 2024 Submitted by: Charlotte Chamitoff, Quebec - Email: chacha@abacom.com Daylily: Dan Trimmer's golden oldie 'Ruby Moon' (1999) - Dormant Tet 24" x 5.5" is one of the first with multiple blooms this summer. The fat yellow buds draw you to look closer even when not flowering. It's a substantial bloom and opens perfectly every time. After all these years still a favorite. Award winners Dan and Jane Timmer hybridized at their home Water Mill Gardens, in Florida, registering hundreds of beautiful dayliles, retiring in 2018.
