So I have an incidental seedling. It has sprung up in a patch of Stella de'Oro. It is definitely not a Stella and well I doubt that Stella was its' mother. It doesn't match up with anything in my well-kept database of daylilies that I own and I haven't bought Stella's in well over 10 years. It also has bigger/wider fans than Stella.

So I am calling it my incidental seedling and I am in love with it!!!! I suspect that Earlybird Cardinal could be one of the parents, as I have EBC in this same garden and the characteristics with the little white midribs and the beautifully curled petals mimic EBC as well as the height and size.

Once it is done blooming, I will detangle it from the Stella patch and move it to my seedling bed.

Stats:
3.5 inches
30 inch scape
slightly fragrant
