Larry - Hmmm ... I wonder why your Siloam Double Classic produced mal-shaped blooms? Mine bloomed after I received it and the blooms were perfect. I wonder if heat is a factor in the bloom quality? It's certainly been hot enough here. I don't know if mine will rebloom this year or not. It seems to be focused on producing foliage right now ... which is good as I was worried it looks pretty sparse on the foliage. I didn't want to lose it.

Thanks for the heads-up as to where and how much for the 6 rust resistant daylilies that I was wondering about. I will check out their website. Good prices for all of them. Appreciate you sharing the info with me! I am interested like you in obtaining 10-15 rust resistant daylily cultivars to use in my hybridizing efforts. I am hoping the genes pass on to some of the crosses to produce some rust resistant hybrids with patterns, ruffles, and teeth. I don't know about you, but I see several of my spider daylilies that show rust resistance on the foliage. I wonder if spiders tend to be more rust resistant because they often have the thinner leaves?
What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters, compared to what lies within us.
