I did a daylily experiment with what I had on hand which was Wilson’s Yellow and Tuscawilla Snowdrift. I wondered what would happen if I crossed a large frilly daylily with a small no-frills daylily. What I got seems to be an in-between show of traits. Notice how the Tuscawilla Snowdrift made the bloom larger? Now I know the results seem like underwhelming results but what I have learned is valuable. I would want to make a cross between two very different parents that both have desirable traits. Recently, I have done this with seedling selections I am growing which will be shared later on as they bloom. One thing I have decided is to be a pod parent I will need to see a good bud count so I am getting much more selective lately.
