Very lovely!!! Didn't know that Bella Sera had such lovely ruffles. Pictures I have seen of it on the Lily Auction don't appear to be so ruffly.

Shirlee, thanks for posting such lovely pics! I tend to prefer UFs and spidery ones but those are awesome. If I keep seeing
HAPPY HAPPY and hear good reports, I may have to buy that one :)

Cindy, I agree about the ruffles.

Your seedlings are nice too!

Yeah I know what you mean, like my want list is shrinking ROFL.

I like Happy Happy also, I don't have it but I won a gorgeous seedling from it from Fred. I can't wait to see it bloom.

Shirlee, your seedlings are as beautiful as, or even more beautiful than the registered daylilies.

Dot, Fred's seedling is a beauty. I hope it is nicely fertile.

Shirlee, I love each and every one of your choices, and now I want BELLA SERA. And your seedlings are to die for, especially that first one!

And Dot -- what a gorgeous seedling! Can't wait to see the pictures next year!

Our company receptionist's favorite cat named Bella died suddenly a few months ago and I bought Bella Sera for her. With your permission, Shirlee, I'd like to send that photo to her.

Certainly Debra, you have permission to use the photo of Bella Sera.

Bella Sera just blew me away this year with the ruffles. It is a mature clump now,
so my guess is that is when it does its best. It came from Maryott's.

Cindy, Teresa, and Shannon, thanks for the super nice comments.

Ann and Betty, just wow. So happy you enjoyed them.

Dot, that seedling is sooo gorgeous. Can't wait to see it next year as well.
Also gives me hopes for the crosses made this year with Happy Happy. The
seedlings are up and growing. Now, if they just make it till spring to be
planted outside.

Born to Run is so much prettier than the photos. Can't seem to capture it's
real beauty.

Storm Shadows is another one that bloomed so well and so large. Also a
mature clump now.

These few made my day in a sea of plants that did not do as well.

Oops, edited to add that Hog Heaven was sickly this year, so not plentiful
blooms, but seeing those first blooms made it one of my favorites.
It is fine now, and has multiplied its fans. The rest of these were great.

They are all so pretty, but I've got Memphis down on my long list. Trimmer really has my number with all these new/newish intros.

Shirlee, those seedlings are beautiful. I'm a ruffles fan and each one is just full of them. I like the color combination of your first bi-tone seedling of Linda Beck x Wonder of it all. Good Job.....Maryl

Thanks so much Stephanie. This is the first year that I have had seedlings
that I may register if they do okay next year.

Maryl, many thanks. Guess you know by now that I am a huge ruffles fan.
My next adventure will be trying to get pleated flat ruffles just like the ruffles we sew
on little girl's dresses.

Lovely comments guys. So very much appreciated.
