Those are pretty. What type/cultivar are they?
Thank you. I don't know. A friend from church had cultivated dozens, if not hundreds of new ones, during his lifetime. He'd even named one after his wife and it's listed and described on line, but there is no accompanying photo. So we don't know if we have it or not. Aging, he had us come get a truckload of bulbs several years ago. We planted them around our property and don't know anything about them except there are many varieties and ... they grow, multiply and are beautiful. This is the only one with multitudes of blossoms like this. The rest are, well, day lilies. Not long after we took them, a relative of theirs moved in to look after him and his wife, and plowed under all the flowers, and the property was sold. We were sad we hadn't taken more, but we hadn't wanted to be greedy. Also we weren't prepared to get any more in the ground at the time. But we are keeping them alive and hope to be able to share some as time goes by and we get them more organized. But ... we'll never know their names, sad to say.
