You caught me. It is indeed Mr. Maryott. I thought his irises had some of the best form and he had some unique colors. I think what Bill likes about the daylilles is the challenge of the hybridizing. But he did tell me that he didn't miss digging the iris in the middle of July. There is just a little irony that he won the Dykes medal for "That's All Folks" after he quit irises.
