The overall look is captivating. That was the look intention of the cross. It takes "wild and wonderful" genes into a northern hardy flower. (Chew Mailpouch Tobacco x Buddy's Wild And Wonderful).

Date: Feb. 22, 2025 Submitted by: Loretta Zink, Indiana - Email: loborose@live.com Futures: My Mom loved daylilies and was so intrigued with my seedlings that when she was 88, she wanted to try her hand at hybridizing. She had arthritis so bad by then, she couldn't climb into the raised beds so she was limited to the plants around the edges. She ended up with 15 seedlings and most of her crosses were pretty strange so I really didn't expect she'd get anything worth mentioning but I was surprised. She actually got 2 really nice seedlings, and one is really outstanding. She was so proud of her babies and 2 weeks before she died, she asked me "What is going to happen to my seedlings?" I said that as she knew, I was really working at cutting back but that I could promise her that I would register her best seedling and promised I would always keep it. I have the name reserved. It will be "My Momma's An Angel". I was never really that much of a fan of reds but that one is really beautiful. I will be registering this year. I'm more into stripes, spots, and broken patterns, but I've dabbled with some different things ..... Here are a few of the ones I will be registering this year. I've got some others that I want to see bloom once more and I've got a lot of seedlings that should be excellent. Loretta's Website is: Lobo Rose - Plantstep.

Date: Dec. 20, 2024 Submitted by: Clare Bewsher, Australia - Email: bewsher@exemail.com.au Daylily: Been super busy lately with pollinating, weeding out non-performers, etcetera, but now the daylily bloom season is almost finished here in Australia. I've said a few times before on this robin that I've had to downsize. There are some with which I'll never part i.e below: Clare's Website is: Daylilies By Clare. Fall Phantom is a Bewsher registered daylily.

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.

Date: July 25, 2024 Submitted by: Paul Aucoin, Alabama - Email: pgaucoin@samford.edu Future:Waiting on the decision of the registration committee on the name 'KEYTH' for this one that I should've registered a dozen or so years ago. 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.
