Maryott - Which of his introductions have you gotten?

Posted by juliany 5/6 (My Page) on

I'm hoping some of you on the forum may have purchased or gotten one of Bill's own introductions (old or new doesn't matter). Would love to read which ones you have, pics if you have any and some feedback.
Thanks
Julia

I have a few of Bill's introductions. A lot of them are new and will bloom for the first time this spring.

The ones that have bloomed for me are:
Flamboyant Diva
Inner Vision
Decadence

The ones that have not bloomed yet (got them last fall) are:
Rodelinda
Filipina Bride
Intaglio Image
Winning Note

I am not connected to my external hard drive (with all my pics), but I will try to post some later. All his plants have been very hardy for me so far.

Thanks fairysoapgirl. Looking forward to them.
I'm surprised no one else has posted. I'm trying to make up my mind as to which ones of Bill's to get. MEXICAN MAGIC looks intriguing but has anyone grown it?

RE: Maryott - Which of his introductions have you gotten?

Hey, I do have Mexican Magic, it grew really well, overwintered well too. Got it summer of 08. Long bloom time and increased alot!

RE: Maryott - Which of his introductions have you gotten?

I also have Prediction, it has overwintered, increased like crazy. I have some in the bed , and I put some in a pot, the one in the pot rebloomed for me late in the summer. I've had it since summer 08. I also have Incendiary, I received it end of June 09 and it doubled!! then it shot up three scapes in October, which I cut, I understand it blooms early for most, so I'm hoping it has settled in and will send up those scapes again for me come this June. I also have Because of You, and Extravagant, both were planted this past summer, Extravagant increased a little during the summer.
Here is Prediction, the one growing in a pot.

Nice pics and MEXICAN MAGIC is what I was hoping for. Sold on that one :-). Is PREDICTION eye and edge as red as it appears on my screen?

"Is PREDICTION eye and edge as red as it appears on my screen?"

Curious about that myself!? Google brought up another of your posts with a distinct similarity in color and a pic from "the unmentionable site" taken from Maryott's that I find far less impressive than your pics. If the red in your pics is close it must be stunning in person / near primary reds especially. Thanks!

RE: Maryott - Which of his introductions have you gotten?

Yes, Prediction is as it stands out in my pic. The red eye and edge popped against the yellow. It began to bloom last week of June last summer, after wintering over in my zone 5 garden, then one grouping (potted one) did a rebloom late, I think it was September. The pic is the rebloom. Here is a pic from early July in the garden bed, the edge wasn't as pronounced as it was on the rebloom. It did stand out in the garden bed.

I have 6 Maryott daylillies and most have done really well for me in Zone 6.

Winning Note  7.17.09

Flamboyant Diva

Best In Class

Annabelle's Blush 6.12.09

Choral Fantasy

My two favorites of these are Annabelle's Blush and Choral Fantasy.


 o
RE: Maryott - Which of his introductions have you gotten?

I've added PREDICTION as well.
I'm checking on the ones that farmerbell posted. CHORAL FANTASY looks like a standout in color. How is the bud count and scapes?

RE: Maryott - Which of his introductions have you gotten?

I got a few of Maryott's daylilies, last summer was their first bloom though so some were just so-so. I have Flamboyant Diva, can't say enough about that one, it bloomed a lot for its first year. I'm expecting big things from it this year. Also have Bold Move, loved its blooms; World Premier did fairly well,& Dilemma. Bubbles Galore did great too. Got Century Club the year before these, it has been a disappointment. I started out with 3 double fans of it, it has slowly died back to 1 fan, but that was looking very healthy last fall. It is a very pretty one though
Bold Move looks just like any old red in this picture, but it is one of my nicest reds I think
Bold Move

Flamboyant Diva I think I stopped taking pictures of it by the time it started opening up fully

For some reason I don't have pictures of Bubbles Galore & Dilemma. Dilemma may never have had a good flower on it, most of its buds never even opened up.

RE: Maryott - Which of his introductions have you gotten?

OK, Sorry it took me so long yo post these:

FLAMBOYANT DIVA (Bloomed shortly after getting here, and I expect her to be much better this year).
FLAMBOYANT DIVA

DECADENCE (This was a very late bloom/scape, it came with Bill's Magic Dust on it, so I am sure it will be even better this year!)

Dlpsych, thanks for the extra pic/info. Upon review of the pic/specs on Maryott's site I'm thinking it would be a very nice companion for my favorite reds. Hmmm...

 o
RE: Maryott - Which of his introductions have you gotten?

Wes, That will look great with reds, which gives me a good idea!! also, glad to see you at the 'other' place. Cindy


 o
RE: Maryott - Which of his introductions have you gotten?

I ordered DECADENCE this year, it will be my first year ordering from Maryotts. Must admit I got carried away on the BOGOS!

Nancy I love World Premiere! like the ruffled ones alot.


 o
RE: Maryott - Which of his introductions have you gotten?

I made my order and sent it in. So hopefully no problems with these and thanks to everyone for their feedback/pics and suggestions. I've not ordered before from Maryott's but Bill is more than helpful and his feedback from many is always positive.
I decided on:
SOCIAL GRACES
MEXICAN MAGIC
PREDICTION
LIGHT OPERA
DILEMMA
and not one of Bill's but wanted to get AZTEC HEADDRESS.

I was tempted by some of the others but thought to start with these.

RE: Maryott - Which of his introductions have you gotten?

I think you will like Mexican Magic. It didn't bloom for me last year because I had it in a bad place and moved it. But this is a picture from the year before. I'm looking forward to seeing it again this year.

I received some of Maryott's intros last year as bonuses and am looking forward to seeing blooms this year. Cameo Luster, Flamboyant Diva, and Choral Fantasy.

This year I have ordered Extravagant, Pandora's Treasure, and Inner Vision. Annabelle's Blush is on my wishlist. I've seen some gorgeous pictures of that one.

ngraham - your picture of World Premiere is beautiful.

RE: Maryott - Which of his introductions have you gotten?

Kwanza Gold was really nice, and Mexican Magic got a lot of notice from my neighbors. You'll enjoy it!

Mike


 o
RE: Maryott - Which of his introductions have you gotten?

Michelle and Mike: Thank you both for posting. I'm very excited to see how my selections do here. WINNING NOTE looks great. I have to go and look at KWANZA GOLD.
I've already started a list for the "next" order.

RE: Maryott - Which of his introductions have you gotten?

i just made my first maryotts purchase and wanted to pay using paypal. it did not prompt me for payment but i did submit my order. does bill email me a paypal invoice right before they ship?

after seeing this thread, i sooo want flamboyant diva!!! i purchased shores of time, franks star of bethlehem, and raspberries in cream.

thanks for your help!

 o
RE: Maryott - Which of his introductions have you gotten?

Faye: It doesn't prompt you for the paypal but it did have somethng referencing which email to use for submitting your paypal payment to them.
I think it was a couple of days after I sent in my order online that I received an Order Acknowledgment email from Maryott's confirming my order and instructions for submitting payment via Paypal at my convenience. Check your emails if you don't see it come in within a week. Check your spam and trash folder as well. Sometimes the email service provider dumps alot of stuff in Junk/Trash/Spam folders that shouldn't be there.
