Only did one cross for today. Rained last night/morning, so not sure if it's going to set a pod.

Today's crosses. Might be about done with crosses for this year. Pods are setting on the earlier crosses and will give me more then enough seeds to keep me busy.

One cross I did yesterday. Only wanted to do blues this year, but I had wanted to do this cross for many years, and never happened.

Not bad for being old daylilies.

The fimbriated white edge is a desirable feature. Wolud be interesting to see if this appears in the seedlings.

Trying to get a fancy edge on my blue eyed seedling. My blue eyed seedling in a big flower, probably 6.5, Precious candy might be close to 5.

Two crosses for today. Love Destined To See, but that midrib scares me. Don't want to waste time growing them out and get that midrib..... on the seedlings

My last two flowers on Precious Candy

Making progress with seedlings, started more seeds.

Only using one light, the bigger xs2000 led. All the big plants are now outside, and will be planted this weekend.

Most of these will be grown through the Winter. Think there are 10 or so seedlings that are going to be planted out in a couple weeks.

Well, I did get one seedling  to put up a scape in under a year's time. Maybe another week to go, hopefully deer don't eat the buds.

This is bonus cross Auction seeds. Could be Man Of Sorrows X Sharper than a Double Edged Sword or Kingdom Without End X Ruler Of Nations. Didn't label when planted out, just planting together inline.

Thinking Sharper than a Double Edged Sword, has spikes on the buds
