Daylily 'All I Want For Christmas' (hemerocallis)

Again a first time flowerer for me, thanks Gnarly gnome love it :-), not a perfect flower its been speckled a bit by the heavy rain yesterday but so excited that the daylilies have started I couldn't wait :-), this really is a fab red the picture doesn't do it justice one of those dark velvety colours that's so hard to capture,91/2inch flowers and looks like its diamond dusted too :-)

It appears that this is listed wrong on Tinkers. It should be a TET instead of a DIP. So you could try for large patterned TET's.

Looks similar to 'stafford' Ive got two flowers coming but they look rather distorted so I'm not hopeful :/

Oooo can't wait for the others to start Wylie, this only has 1 scape, hope something good flowers before the buds are over to cross it with.
Oh dear its not gall midge is it Daylily ? I'm picking buds off already grrrr.

I know I've had it on bela but because that's large it doesn't make a difference pulling the buds off but on this there's only the two, I'll leave them I think and see :)

Hopefully I will have some photos this week !!!

Thats good then Daylily :-), I'd be interested to see a picture of your 'Black Magic' when it flowers, I was sent one in a swap years ago a really dark colour and I've often wondered if that's 'Black Magic' so we could compare :-)
Another flower open on it today Gg it really is a beauty, off to have another look in a minute ;-)
A couple more open today the ever reliable, and one of my favourites, 'Inner View' being one :-)
