Talking about Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Little Orange Tex'), krancmm wrote:

Often in the top 10 popularity poll of AHS Region 6 (Texas and New Mexico) since its introduction in 1985, 'Little Orange Tex' is a wonderful evergreen landscape daylily. Although the flowers are small at 3-1/2", high bud count, multple branching, sun/wind/rain proof flowers, and rust resistance contribute to its appeal. Rebloom scapes are typically single branched and usually appear 2 months after the main flower period given adequate fertilzation and moisture.

I planted this daylily in memory of a dear friend of mine who died suddenly in a car accident. I looked for flowers with her name, but when I stumbled across this bloom, I knew it was perfect for my memory garden. Her brilliant smile was one of her most memorable features.
Talking about Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Romantic Returns'), critterologist wrote:

Not as ever-blooming as 'Happy Returns', but still reblooms frequently through the summer for me. I love the light ruffling (I'm actually not a fan of the new "chicken fat" heavy ruffles).
Talking about Daylily (Hemerocallis 'All of Your Love'), daylily wrote:

Curt Hanson's Crintonic Garden Catalog said: All of Your Love
09-EM-43-SE
SET THE STYLE/BEYOND THUNDERDOME X Salter Sdg. JT/MBM: (JT DAVIS/MANDALAY BAY MUSIC)
In a rapturous orgy of form and color, ALL OF MY LOVE exalts the early season in joyous exuberance. Voluptuous and finely appointed, these 6 inch blossoms are a particularly soft tone of shell pink. The lusty vigorous plants display masculine 43 inch erect scapes with 4 to 5 way candelabra branching. This consummate performer is fertile both ways.

Curt Hanson's Crintonic Garden Catalog said: Ammonites And Nautiloids
08-M-30-SE
Unfolding Paradox X Utopian Irrelevance
Long before our ancestors crawled out of the ocean in the late Paleozoic era, these cephalopods ruled. Like these 400 million year old fossils, Ammonites And Nautiloids appears to be engraved in rock. These highly textured and sculptural 5-1/2 inch flowers exhibit a bold dimensional presence. Full formed and voluptuous with precise deeply inscribed ribs. This dramatic rose-purple reveals a circular misty lavender pattern above the chartreuse throat. These robust plants display stout 30 inch scapes with wide three and four way branching. Fertile either way.
Talking about Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Catch my Fall'), daylily wrote:

Curt Hanson's Crintonic Garden Catalog said:CATCH MY FALL
98 EM 26 SE
SWALLOW TAIL KITE x OTAVALO / COURT MAGICIAN
With fluid grace and casual motion, CATCH MY FALL provides a breath of fresh air in today’s sophisticated market. Elegant and tasteful, these well crafted 6-1/2" flowers are both round and full. With a consistently flaring petal, each blossom has an individual charm that avoids predictable formality. The color is a soft orchid lavender with a large starburst watermark pattern of delicate rose accented by a lime green throat. The combination of size, form and color along with the vigorous plants and well balanced three and four-way branching make this cultivar a wonderful garden subject. Fertile either way, CATCH MY FALL joins CHANNELED AGGRESSION, LOVE IN VAIN and WORLDS COLLIDE as examples of the superlative qualities found in the, OTAVALO/COURT MAGICIAN line.
Talking about Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Carnival Knowledge'), daylily wrote:

Curt Hanson's Crintonic Garden Catalog said:CARNIVAL KNOWLEDGE
96 M 26 SE
OCEAN RAIN x (DISREALI / LOVE GODDESS) x ASIAN ARTISTRY
In a flaunting display of vanity, this bright and gregarious flower of warm coral shrimp is accented by a distinctive round watermark of rose peach. The form is full and round with wide petals edged in delicate piecrust ruffling. Like it’s parent, OCEAN RAIN, CARNIVAL KNOWLEDGE is a carefree grower and joy to behold even under adverse conditions. Fertile either way and a consistent parent.
Talking about Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Capernaum Sin'), daylily wrote:

Curt Hanson's Crintonic Garden Catalog said:CAPERNAUM SIN
93 EM 26 SE
(VINTAGE WINE / PAUPER PRINCE) x tet GRAND MASTERPIECE
A significant development in color and form, these medium sized flowers are quite round and full with pansy-like piecrust-ruffled petals of clear, deep claret-burgundy, accented by a lime green throat. The form is flat to gently recurved. The rich, clear color is enhanced by the very smooth satin-like finish, sunfast qualities and heavy, flesh-like substance. Fertile and a magnificent parent.
Talking about Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Capacity for Wonder'), daylily wrote:

Curt Hanson's Crintonic Garden Catalog said: CAPACITY FOR WONDER
01 ML 36 SE
ALPHA CENTAURI X PHAZERS ON STUN
As one of the most universally admired flowers in the garden, CAPACITY FOR WONDER sublimely exalts the classic appeal of the yellow daylily. This glowing fusion of golden hues is most succinctly pronounced with an effusive and lush green throat emanating well out onto the petals. A delicate violet pink midrib and soft cameo blush adds to the overall tropical panache. The flatly formed 6” symmetrical and triangular flowers gently reflex with delicate ruffles and fringe. The erect and stately scapes display well spaced three and four-way branching. Greatly indebted to the work of Brother Charles and a favorite of Jeff Salter. Pollen fertile.
Talking about Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Burning Hot Spot'), daylily wrote:

Curt Hanson's Crintonic Garden Catalog said:BURNING HOT SPOT
04 T EM 40 SE
CELTIC CHRISTMAS X (Tet SILOAM VIRGINIA HENSON x LE PETIT SABOTEUR)
Pressing all the right buttons, these salacious cherry orange blossoms will unleash your gardening passions! BURNING HOT SPOT is a small 2-3/4" reflexed, round flower of exceptional heavy and wax-like substance. The bright coral red color is set off by a small green heart. This fabulous plant has tall 40" robust masculine scapes with tree-like wide 3 and 4-way branching. Topnotch show bench qualities combine with luscious color and lustful fertility to make BURNING HOT SPOT an instant turn on for collectors and hybridizers alike.


Talking about Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Borg Technology'), daylily wrote:

Curt Hanson's Crintonic Garden Catalog said:BORG TECHNOLOGY
01 M 26 SE
ROMULAN DEFECTOR X ENCHANTED ELEGANCE
In my continuing exploration of space and time I have come to anticipate the occasional alien encounter. BORG TECHNOLOGY is one which I feel is worth sharing with the folks back home. A peculiar combination of color and pattern make this selection distinctive. The argyle purple petals exhibit an appliqued rose violet pattern around the large golden chartreuse throat, and this design is repeated in the sepals. The 5” flowers are flat, broadly triangular and show a subtle pleat deep in the throat, indicative of it’s ANASTASIA grandparent. The bold simplicity of these elements is not compromised by any distracting gold edge. The stout scapes display proportionate three-way branching. Fertile both ways.
Talking about Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Booty Call'), daylily wrote:

Curt Hanson's Crintonic Garden Catalog said:BOOTY CALL
05 ML 33 SE
HER MAJESTIES WIZARD X DEN OF INEQUITY
Selected to appease those capricious late night impulses, BOOTY CALL offers immediate no-risk gratification right in the privacy of your own garden. These naughty black-violet flowers shamelessly exhibit a peerless smooth satin-like finish, and are exceptionally sunfast for one of the darkest colors in the garden. The iniquitous ebony color is centered by a small citrus heart, while the petals are edged in the finest white thread. Consistently flat, these 4-1/2" blossoms are round and symmetrical with blunt segments. The flower scapes are stout and erect with well proportioned three-way branching, best suited for the front of the bordello. Lustily fertile both ways, BOOTY CALL is being used in both my large and small flowered lines for its superlative color.


Booty Call was not pictured in Curt's 2005 catalog.

Spanish Sketch took awhile to get established in my zone 6a garden but once it took off, it is a good grower and very showy.

"Little Dixie" is a region in central Missouri, where Frank Kropf lived.
Talking about Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Weaver's Web'), mbouman wrote:

I adored this daylily the one season it lived. David Kirchhoff refused to sell it to me that year because he was pretty sure it was too tender for my area. So I bought another plant and accepted Weaver's Web as my bonus plant. David was right, alas. This is one gorgeous daylily!
Talking about Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Rainbow Radiance'), mbouman wrote:

In the St. Louis area, Rainbow Radiance thrives in sun or shade. I grew it in the shadow of my house for several years, then tried it in full sun. Vigorous either way, and totally consistent in form and opening characteristics.
Talking about Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Queensbury First'), mbouman wrote:

This is the first registration by Russell Henry Taft, who later suffered from Alzheimer's Disease. His wife, Sally Millman-Taft sent me the plant. It makes a fabulous clump.
Talking about Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Longlesson Liberty Belle'), mbouman wrote:

If I still grew this wonderful daylily, I'd cross it both ways with Hanson's GUIDED BY VOICES, which does the same pattern thing in St. Louis weather.
