Last fall when we did the transplanting of the red daylilies, I moved some small daylilies out front that were getting trampled. I made a diagram, and thought I captured everything. I planted a very small, very smooshed daylily plant (no blooms) opposite the peach daylily that had been one of my first daylilies. I thought it was a seedling from a seed from a non-intentional cross from Purple D’Oro. I labelled it that way. It bloomed this year. It looked amazingly like a Pink Tirzah. Amazingly like a Pink Tirzah – but much shorter than our other Tirzah. Much shorter.
Today that daylily bloomed for the last time this year – no more buds. I am convinced it is a Pink Tirzah. Which means that it is not a seedling from Purple D’Oro. Drats. Maybe one will bloom next year.
Purple D’Oro has many seedlings from seeds again this year. And many seed pods again this year.
