I'm glad I take pictures of my seedling blooms from time to time, and here are a couple of examples of siblings from the same cross and how the blooms have changed/evolved since they first bloomed last month.

The cross is PRECIOUS CANDY x XYLOPHONE JAZZ

I liked the first seedling right off the bat because of the edging so it's a keeper at least for now.

1st bloom 5/2/15

5/8/15

And then 6/1/15 - What a difference!

I wasn't sure about the second seedling but decided to keep my eye on it because the white area is just about the whitest I have seen, plus the purple does really look purple, not burgundy.

First bloom 5/8/15

5/12/15 - Getting less thrilled about this one...

5/30/15 - WOW! I almost can't believe it's the same daylily! But I double-checked, and it is!

These two seedlings are from the same cross, believe it or not -- and I'm pretty sure I got the seeds from Dot (Ladylovingdove). So thank you Dot!!! Hurray!
