This got outta control!

I recently tried some deliberate daylily crosses.

Here are my observations:

It was fun on day one, day two I thought I definitely needed to document and have a better tagging system, day three I started thinking, “what else should I cross”, day four I did one cross and started realizing that I was looking at the day’s blooms for crossing options, and not enjoying the blooms. I stopped.

If I do more crosses I will need a much better system – tags, methodology to keep crosses documented, and limits so I don’t stop enjoying the blooms first, and then the crosses, because already one cross failed. 6 more tbd.

My original plan was Pink China Doll to Marque Moon. Maybe that is the key. Keep it simple.

Next year, better plan.
