2026 INTROS
Due to health issues and a severe drought last summer, I am not in a position to offer new intros in the spring of 2026. Fortunately, we finally got a lot of rain in October so the plants should be in good shape, and I will be evaluating this spring regarding new intros later in the year.
In the meantime, if you are interested in earlier intros, please email me for availability at
Like many, we have had a wild, bitterly cold winter, but my plants are bred for hardiness, and we have also had a very good snow cover this year, so I am expecting a robust show of daylilies this spring.
Thank you for looking!

**********************************************************************************************************************************************************
ENKI - 36" tall, 6" bloom, 5 branches, 23 buds. Dormant. Tet. Mid. Fertile both ways. $45 DF
ENKI is a robust purple with strong, well-branched scapes. Fertile both ways and a good increaser. Out of Curt Hanson's Peoples Pleasure Park and Building the Colossus, both excellent performers. Very reliable mid-height purple with excellent genes for hybridizing.
**********************************************************************************************************************************************************
GILGAMESH - 50" tall, 7" bloom, 4 branches, 29 buds. Dormant. Diploid. Mid. Fertile both ways. $50 DF+
GILGAMESH is a bright, exuberant, tall and floriferous plant, bursting out all over with tightly quilled UF blooms. From Marguerite de Vergennes x Don Church's Tiger Whiskers. Two generations from H. Hakuunensis, providing for excellent hardiness, increase, branching and bud count. Good increaser and a nice showy daylily where some tall and fun color is needed.
**********************************************************************************************************************************************************
INANNA'S BLOUSE - 32" tall, 6" bloom, 4 branches, 29 buds. Dormant. Tet. Mid. Fertile both ways. $55 DF
INANNA'S BLOUSE is a bitone out of Curt Hanson's Kharma Police and Alone Again. As with some other daylilies in the Jerry Hyatt line, it can be somewhat variable from lighter tones to darker ones, depending on temperature and conditions. One outstanding feature, from its pollen parent Alone Again, is that it keeps its color all through the day - even on hot sunny days. See pics below, both taken after a blistering day.
**********************************************************************************************************************************************************
OFF HER MEDS - 38" tall, 8" bloom, 4 branches, 39 buds. Dormant. Diploid. Mid. Fertile both ways. $35 DF
OFF HER MEDS is a crazy girl out of Jim Murphy's As You Wish x the classic Lilly Dache. Wild looking flowers, often take different UF-style shapes. Scapes can be amazing, with sometimes 5 or 6 branches, with bud counts up to 40 and beyond. Occasionally petals have a translucent spot, so this is not so much a show plant, as a fun addition to the garden with a big show on great plants that increase readily. See scape shot below - that's one scape!
**********************************************************************************************************************************************************
SUPERPERP - 46" tall, 7" bloom, 3 branches, 20 buds. Dormant. Tet. Mid. Fertile both ways. $65 DF
SUPERPERP was outstanding from her first bloom She has quite a pedigree, including Astral Voyager, Wiggly Piggly, Frieda Allen Jarrell, Wild Smurf and Joan Derifield. Large, spatulate blooms always open wide and flat and she passes this trait along to all her kids. Excellent parent, combining well with purples, reds, lavenders and others, always throwing striking blooms.
**************************************************************************************************************************************************
VIOLET TOWN - 39" tall, 7.5" bloom, 3 branches, 25 buds. Dormant. Tet. Mid. Fertile both ways. $70 DF
VIOLET TOWN is a strong showy purple from two excellent parents: Curt Hanson's Building the Colossus and Judy Davisson's High Water Mark. Striking blooms have a blue/gray watermark on the petals, and a yellow watermark on the sepals. Strong, robust grower. Totally cold hardy. Stately in a clump - a nice showy addition to the garden with the large clearly colored blooms and a strong plant.
COOL SEA BREEZE 2019 42" tall, 6" bloom, 3 branches, 22 buds Dor, Mid-Season, $30 DF
COOL SEA BREEZE is a favorite in our garden. Just when the summer heat gets hard to take, this strong grower starts to bloom, looking as cool and clean as fresh laundry drying on a breezy June day. Very strong scapes that seem to arrange themselves so that the plant blooms in a lovely, symmetrical bouquet.
This is a strong winter-hardy plant that becomes a very robust clump within 2-3 years, offering an outstanding show of bitone blooms. Pod and pollen fertile. This is cross between Swallow Tail Kite and a gret seedling Curt Hanson generously gave me when I begged him for it in his garden. It has turned out to be an excellent parent, throwing good kids no matter what it is crossed with. Truly excellent genes. Thank you, Curt!
