AAAHHHH! A winner again! Love it, love it, love it! I have very small seedlings of Wild Horse crosses, I hope I will get some nice blooms on them especially since I lost my Wild Horses a few weeks ago due to SOMETHING that can be crown rot. I lost many daylily plants. But life goes on!

I am hoping that my volcanic soil will drain well enough to prevent crown rot - it has small lava pebbles that let the water sink very fast. I have found that Wild Horses is very dominate, and this one had the most eye variation. The Heavy Metal pollen was supposed to add a metallic sheen, but it never happened.
