2009 SPRING DAYLILY INTRODUCTIONS

H. *GREYWOODS FANCY FILLY   (Wilkinson 09) Tet.                              Sorry Sold Out
SEV.  30”  ML.  I have been waiting to assign this name to a worthy daylily and this beauty certainly lives up to it’s billing. At 6.25” the complex bloom is a pastel cream flushed lavender, with a mauve lavender eye that’s enhanced by a green throat. Of slightly triangular form, it’s the double edge of mauve, lavender, gold and yellow that draws you in. Huge ruffles that hook and fold over at times are a standout. A real breakthrough for northern daylily breeding, although it is a SEV, and not a dormant.  Nice foliage, 3 branches, 22-26 buds and moderate increase. Fertile both ways.

H. *GREYWOODS FRITZWILLIAM   (Wilkinson 09)  Tet.                         Sorry Sold Out
DOR.  32”  M-ML.  This exquisite 6” pastel medium pink is a sib to our long blooming GW BILL CHAMBERS – but more of everything.  More gold ruffling, more saturation, more presence – a BC on steroids!  There are many nice pinks around, but this standout is northern bred with a southern belle look. Nice wide petals and a vivid green throat enhance the raised surface pleating.  Husky scapes & good foliage with 3 branches and 23-27 buds. Nicely fertile both ways. A classic addition to the garden. [GREYWOODS DIXIE BELLE X Sdlg (ANGELS BRAID X DARLA ANITA)]  Limited.  SF

H. *GREYWOODS LIPS A QUIVER    (Wilkinson 09)  Tet.                           Sorry Sold Out
DOR.  28”  M-ML.  Lots of “WOW” factor in this outstanding flower.  From our GW ROAD TO MECCA line (which has been a terrific parent for eyes) this is a flashy sib to last year’s GW COUNTRY SQUIRE (sold-out).  At 5.75” the soft yellow based buff bloom has a seemingly painted on deep fushia lav-red eyezone and wide ruffled border. Very, very saturated in color, the eye is a beacon across the garden. Husky scapes, pretty foliage and a good green throat. This parent stamps it’s kids with that eye and is a must for hybridizers wanting hardiness in their eyed lines. 3 branches and 25+ buds. Fertile.  (GREYWOODS ROAD TO MECCA X BORDER MUSIC)   SF

2009 FALL INTRODUCTIONS (Fall Delivery)

H. GREYWOODS FINGERS MALONE    (Wilkinson 09)  Dip.                             125.00
SEV.  32”  ML to Late  7 1/2 to 8”  Cascading UF.  Probably a dormant north of us, this very unusual daylily gives new meaning to the UF term cascading. A medium yellow with green undertones, this almost spider cascades and rolls down on itself in an unusual but attractive manner.  Always different and fun, it’s something new for the spider dip hybridizer. Candelabra type buds, and a nice green throat add to the package. 3 top branches with 17-23 buds. Bloomed into mid-august here, and even set some pods. (GREYWOODS DISCO DANA X JERRY’S WHIRLIGIG).  Limited due to pre-sales.  SF  Aug. shipping
