Our Seedlings Q-Z
About this Page:
The daylilies listed as "Our Seedlings" (3 pages of them) have been grown by us from pollen to mature plants. They are the survivors of our culling, drought and unprotected winters. Most of them are in the final phase before introduction. Note: The names are not "official" (some are abbreviated) and are just an easy way for us to remember the plant's looks. (vs. a random number or row number)
