Daylily 'Condilla'
I've always admired the pictures I've seen of this oldie. I finally got a plant and even in spite of just being dug and replanted, it's still cranking out loads of perfectly formed hose-in-hose (flower within flower) doubles. I'd thought it was more of a yellow, but it's more like the color of a slice of American cheese. Glad to finally grow it!

Have you tried hosts x day lily hybrids? They should be related closely enough (no major morphological variation) Maybe showier hostas with new flower colors and forms would result, or better blues, fragrance and bloom clusters on day lilies with attractive, broad colordul foliage! Karl has a paper on a known case of the hybrid (progenitor of blueish day lilies) on his website.

ReplyDeleteCoincidentally I have been trying some mixed pollen stuff with daylily and Hosta... At least one curious seedling but nothing I'd want to go public with just yet - people could quickly think I'm crazy ;0)
