Such a great shot of this daylily. Congrats, @Ronny07! I can see why it is featured as the popular photo of the day. Lovey dubby Wish all of my clumps could look like this!

Hi Vicky,
Thank you very much for your positive feedback on my photo of "Mean Green", Judy Davisson did a great job introducing it, this plant has very good branching, firm scapes and the flowers stand out nicely above the leaves.
Believe me or not, in the spring of 2021 I planted Mean Green as a single fan, the first two months it was basically normal, the fan got bigger and looked healthy.
By the fall, however, around the original fan, 7 new fans appeared at a distance of about 6 to 7 inches, I've never seen a daylily multiply so quickly.
It's not surprising that Judy chose the name "Mean Green" for it Smiling
This is the story behind this photo, going from a single fan to quite a clump in one year.
Actually, I should inform Davy about whether this is normal with this plant....
I love the pictures you post , I believe you have a great daylily collection in your garden !
My garden is an empire built on compost.

Hi Sue,
You will not regret this if you plant Mean Green in your garden, the flowers also open on colder nights without any problems.
