Silver Lavender Hiccups (Kramer, 2017)

2024 Update: One double fan available for $20.00


I brought home this plant from 2022 Regionals. It looks like there are fun textures on this one.

2023: The first blooms aren't as stunning as I'd hoped. I'm hopeful that next year this will make a better showing.

2024: The second year is definitely better!  The color on the petals manifests as spotted. I love the look!

I'm not 100% sure why I ordered this daylily except that it was close to purple. It has a small bloom and it's a short plant. I don't think I'll use it for my hybridzing program, but I'll put it in a display area.

8/2020 Update:
This plant has not put off scapes, but since it is a mid-late bloomer, it might need more time. It's also in the tiered planter with aggressive plants around it. It might need more sun to put off blooms.
