Leedra's Delight Daylily

As I said in the ealier post this one is possibly a cross between Leprechauns Wealth and Happy Returns. It started as a seedling in my yard about 6 years ago, when I had a lot less daylilies and I knew exactly where they were planted. The first year, no blooms, the 2nd year 1 or 2 blooms. Then it just took off, can't be stopped now.
It is an early bloomer and just keeps on blooming. You can see from the buds below it is a very strong bloomer. I need to check into how a person goes about registering a daylily but I haven't.

Condilla and Leedra's Delight daylilies

Well, Condilla (the bright one) came from Oakes Daylilies about 10 years ago. Before I was even going to the festival, for those great bargains.

The light colored one started as a seedling in my yard, and I call it Leedra's Delight. I think it is a cross between Happy Returns and Leprechauns Wealth, due to it's characteristics. But since the bees did the work I am not sure. It is a early bloomer and it just never stops. Daylilies are classified as rebloomers, and this one is, except I don't really see it pause. I have split it and given away to friends. It just comes back thick again. It keeps going like the little pink bunny. God at work again!
