Share information about daylily hybridization and culture, in French!

Partagez vos connaissances de l'hybridation et de la culture de l’hémérocalle, en français. Ce groupe de discussion francophone et francophile veux rejoindre les mordus d’hybridation pour qu’ils partagent généreusement leur passion : généalogie, choix des parents, type de feuillage (dormant, semi-persistant, persistant) dans l’hémisphère nord, traitement des graines et le niveau de réussite, méthodes de culture des plantules, production des plants, etc. Au plaisir de lire vos contributions !

Forum: Hi Folks! This is a place where hardy, cold tolerant daylilies, which thrive in the colder temperatures in Canada, and the northern U.S., can be discussed. Besides dormant diploids, I've found that certain types of semievergreens, and even a few evergreens, do well here, in Cottage Country, Ontario (USDA Zones 3-2). Cold tolerant seedling pictures and info are also welcome here. Please feel free to upload photos and post comments. Videos can also be uploaded.

Everything you ever wanted to know about irrigation, dirt, ground cloth etc.

Having just built a new nursery from a turnip field, no irrigation to a full fledged Daylily Nursery taking pictures throughout the process, I will have a couple of albums on here tonight. Maybe.

Forum: This group exists to explore the sciences of the plant as a whole. Many among us value high performance bloom production. We value great scapes, rebloom, incessance, bud building, increase, fertility, pod production, and seed viability as important to the progress of the Hemerocallis plant. How can we effectively consider the whole plant in breeding and selection to increase vigor and bloom production?
Post here your findings and your questions. Teach us what you know.

Forum: Here we can discuss and upload images of blue daylilies. This group is open to all that are interested in Blue Eyes or even a true blue daylily.

Forum: A place for:

Runt of the litter.

Ugly duckling.

The face only a mother or father could love.

Forum: There is very little doubt that yellow daylilies have some of the biggest edges of all. Yellow daylilies are also carrying the best weather and sun resistance of all other colours. They very nearly never blemish, and they hold up to sun they so resemble. The biggest leaps in solid based hybridizing towards egdes, size, substance, neon colour and sculpting are coming out of yellows. Just as all of my other open forums -- all images bred or bought may be displayed. Jump in and create new topic strings. Welcome all.

Forum: I love it! I can hardly see the bloom. Wait a minute--let me get a magnifying glass out. Splendid!!!! I'll take two! This is where you want to be to get your mini fix. Only mini's and ponies are allowed to be discussed, and shown. Stun us with your little jewels. All are welcome.

Forum: Finally a place where you can all show huge massive edges, monster sculpting and big flowers. I want to see your wide huge blunt sepals, wide petals, and Jumbo flowers here. Let's talk supersizing every spec, and show what we are all about. Let's just see if everything really is bigger in Texas. Welcome all.

Forum: There is something so memorable about the dayliles that our grandmothers' had in their gardens. They required little care, and grew beautifully through summer days, and we knew they would always be there to enjoy!

My Great-grandparents had a large Christmas tree farm in Princeton NJ when I was small...and all around their farmhouse were the lovely orange faces of the Lemon Lily, H.fulva and kwanzo....which is probably why I still have a love of these invasive beauties.

Do you have any memories of these lovelies and do you grown them now?

I do

Forum: ....is another man's treasure. Some have none, some have too much. Everyone enjoys garden art! From elegant sculptures to red-hatted gnomes- we have it all!

Forum: Black is a real specialty colour that needs it's own category. This is for all you black, brown and rich saturated purple fans. If you lose your mind over a deep purple and live for getting a new black--this is the place for you. Brown breeders will not be scorned upon here. Only purple, browns, and blacks are allowed to be shown, and discussed in this forum. All are welcome.

Forum: This is where you want to be if you are into reds. Reds are becoming ever more ruffly. It is about time. Why reds were put on the back burner until now remains a mystery to some of us. What is more puzzling is the craze to produce ruffles on them started up by all at the same time recently too. Show us what you have been working on in your hybridizing patch, and buying as of late gang. All images of reds may be shown. As usual all membes are welcome to join.

Forum: There is without a doubt more people entering into white collecting and hybridizing every year. Whites are all sizes and clean. White colour is a hue that can be pushed and bent to create any colour. Entire programs exist where whites are used entirely on one side of every cross and for good reason. Whites create instant leaps and magnificant fancy ruffles and form. All images bred or bought may once again be displayed. Have fun. Once again this forum is open to all.

Forum: I was surprised no one had started a group for these wonderful forms that add interest to our gardens. Let's see your seedlings and favorite registered flowers and discuss them!

Forum: Welcome gang. This is a forum for the most cutting edge and modern super stars you have in your garden. All daylily images bought or bred may be shown. However they must be the absolute best plants you ever, ever had the good fortune, and intelligence to buy or breed. They must have survived and thrived for at least 3-5 seasons minimum. We are looking for your absolute best plants you own and grow. Think only of plants that are in your very top 5%. Show us what you have. Dazzle us! All are welcome to this open forum. No Oldies please. There is an oldies super stars too.

Nothing better than a good book during a cold winter, or better yet, a great book to read in your garden on a nice sunny day.

This is a place where you can upload your seedlings and let the members help you by submitting names. As soon as you find one that you want, you post the name and which member submitted it. This should be a fun group. Hope you all like. Let me know what you think. BEV
