We came from here... The thread "lyle627 seedling & intro talk #2" in Daylilies forum




This will be my second season with the orange program and i have started to bloom some foundation stock..

SPACECOAST LITTLE HOTTIE X ORANGE BLOSSOM TRAIL - This seedling has a 32" scape and go a couple different ways.




This cross has a couple parents that has always impressed me for their ability to hold their bright colorS thru- out the day...This seedling has a 31" scape

PAT GARRITY X HOLD YOUR HORSES

Lyle your Orange program is so nice. Can't wait to see more. Always thought Pat Garrity and Hold Your Horses were great plants all around.

What is the 1st. bloom?? Beautiful.

PAT GARRITY X HOLD YOUR HORSES is very nice Lyle, how large are the blooms?

Steph- the first one is a future...FOOTLOOSE FANCY X ELISA DALLAS


Margaret - Both blooms are 6" the important thing about both seedlings are their height -- If I have a good foundation I can always put a nice face on the seedling''

From last season comes this orange future...I will use this one with a few others this season and I hope by next season to have and intro.....

Wow, Lyle, that last one is mind-boggling! What fantastic color! They're really beautiful oranges plus that golden one with the dark eye and green throat is terrific!

I am a big fan of orange daylilies. The last one is superb!!! Please keep us informed re progress with it.

Very nice seedlings Lyle. I really like all of those.

The Footloose Fancy x Elisa Dallas is gorgeous. I looked back through
your previous thread to see if a pic of it was there. Didn't find it, so I
was going to ask what it was. Stephanie beat me to it.

Had to show that one to Hubby who likes it very much also.

The orange in the last picture is gorgeous too. Melon is the
closest that I have in the orange family.
Nice Lyle, very nice.

OMG!!!!!!!!! I WANT!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wow Lyle I love them but especially the last orange one. Do please let us all know when that one will be intro'd.

I'm not big on orange but love that last one.

Great seedlings, that last one is really one that should be grown here.

Thanks Betty - I am pushing for a nice deep orange and hopefully this season i will get some good seedlings along with using some registered stock to achieve that goal.

Ann - Since the first time I seen Apache Sunrise bloom I knew I had to make an orange something like AS with a taller scape...the last seedling has a nice scape and if all goes well I should have some seedlings that I can advance

Thanks Michele - The season is early for me, so I hope it will pick-up.

Thanks Shirlee and thank your Hubby for me...The seedling FLF x ED is one of my favorites it is a very clean bloom in the garden, it also has a very strong scape, and good bud count..

Thanks Kim - I will update the progress of that seedling and hope maybe one of its seedlings will be worth showing.

Leslie - I will bet if that orange was poly it would just be perfect..:biggrin:

Thanks Fred - I have work the last seedling hard and now it will have to show it can produce nice seedling, or back to the drawing board.

Not much happening, but a few from today...

SDLG- 9004 X LARRY ALLEN MILLER



This seedling has a hole in it but did not hang when it opened..



BLUE LAKE X MONTANA SKY

Lyle, you have such pretty purples.

Thanks Leslie - I have been using MONTANA SKY for about 3 years and i like how it passes along it's nice plant habit --very strong scapes...and not to forget the bloom "always a lavender or a purple i haven't had any other color from that cross that i remember.. MS on it's own has a difficult time opening for me but all the kids open perfect..

Blue Lake x Montana Sky certainly has given you some
very nice lavenders, Lyle. Great when a cross is so
dependable.

Lyle, those are all lovey but that orange seedling, wow, it has amazing color.

I really like that creamy yellow one

I love that orange and the Mt. Sky cross. I have 1 seedling I am sending you Lyle AS X Patsy Cline. It is one I was afraid to plant late last year and lose so maybe you can get it to do something there and share it if it is anything decent.

Lyle,
I laugh every time I see your profile pic as I'll bet you don't spend much time kicked back like that.
