Okay now back to rebloom. Hopefully with no more mistakes. In the beginning seems like most hybridizers all have their look-a-likes until they find their niche that makes them stand out in the field. Richard Norris has in the last 3 years or so has been able to introduce daylilies that are truly spectacular for northern gardens. I have or had most all of his early introductions and some of the later. Lusting for a few that are as of now seriously out of my price range. Just mentioning how plant stands out. Most of his plants are much nicer than his pics show.
Richard Norris - my personal favorites
Clarity of Vision - beautiful flower - rebloom
Coral Majority - bud count - rebloom - nice plant
Memorial To Steve - bud count
Hip To Be Sguare - bud count - beautiful flower - rebloom - does have trouble opening in cooler temps
Summer Explosion - bud count - rebloom - flower - good plant - looks like a tall Custard Candy(also reblooms every year here)
Sharons Delight - Flower - rebloom
Belief In Vain - Flower - rebloom - nice plant - really like this one
Ladies Night Out - good purple flower - bud count - rebloom - my first pretty reblooming purple
Borders On Bordeaux - beautiful flower- -bud count - rebloom - good plant - doesn't get any better than this
Purples Passion Promise - Same as BOB
Ashwood Plum Crasy - same as BOB - way nicer than his picture
Buttermilk Pie - good bud count for such a huge flower - rebloom - good plant - my absolute favorite of Richards
Forever In Love - 2nd favorite - flower - bud count - rebloom
Joan Hood - really like this one (his picture isn't even close) Thought I mixed up the tags when it bloomed - bud count - rebloom - I'll take a picture next year
Quiet Wyatt - flower - rebloom - Have 4 daylilies that look just like this one. Quiet Wyatt is the best performer of the five
Ruby Grandeur - No rebloom - but what a deep true red (amazing)
Mitch Lynd - Richard needs a photographer for his birthday (so do I) - I'd say color on this one is the darker shade on Mars Attacks (P Owen) and
Untangle My Emotions (N Bremer) All 3 plants compliment each other. All 3 rebloom and look great planted with euphorbia bonfire, Sedum Blue Zinger and Carex Blue Zinger.
Must run to store. More later unless everyone tires of this.
All Norris plants that have re bloom in their description do so in my zone 5a.
