Applique daylilies from last summer.


                         Clyde Grammon seedling he calls, "Copper Butterfly"

Applique seedlings and introductions continue to evolve, giving us larger appliques, broken appliques, and the beginning of appliques with patterns in the eyes.  In my humble opinion, Clyde Grammon of Louisiana has really taken the lead with his applique program.  Some of the most gorgeous, eye catching appliques I have seen.  Clyde has a Facebook page called "Everyday Acres," where he sells his introductions and you can see some of his lovely seedlings.  Here's a few more:

I have seen some really special seedlings and introductions from across the country on Facebook.  Here are a few more:

              Rich Howard seedling (Waggle Dance X Cosmic Blast) Awesome!

I know I probably forgot some, but this is a great sampling of what's out there. All photos are the property of those people above and use without prior consent is prohibited.  Thank you all for sharing. Some very special daylilies and I am excited to see some of these bloom in my garden this summer. Next segment will feature green throated daylilies.  I don't have quite as many pictures to share, but still some fabulous advancements.  Stay tuned.
