A few big ones

Registered sizes aren't always relevant to what grows in my garden. Here are a few that seem really big to me.


Humdinger, absolutely huge, banana yellow, could be worn as a hat! .


Helen Shooter, very flat daylily, huge


Golden Child, new to me


Forever In Time


Peacock Maiden (and Little Lassie below)


Thin Man now

{{gwi:804285}}
Thin Man last year before I had to divide the clump!


Beautiful Edgings


Ruby Border, amazing substance!

    My, my that clump of Thin Man is fabulous. Ruby Border is very nice too!

    You have some really outstanding large ones.
    The Thin Man clump is stunning, and Beautiful Edgings is a magnificent one. I really like your Peacock Maiden and Little Lassie. Well done.

    Yup, they are big and I love big blooms. Love that Peacock Maiden. And the clump of Thin Man is not thin. All very nice photos.

    Thin Man is great here too, though not so spectacular as your clump. Helen Shooter was a big disappointment. Many blooms didn't open well. As a dip, she takes a while to get established too.

    Golden Child is really pretty. Thin man is my favorite though. It blooms like crazy here, or it did. I have moved and shifted everything last year and think they may have to adjust some. Ellie

    What a beautiful clump shot of Thin Man with the surrounding flowers. An advertisement for daylilies in the landscape...... I don't think I can pick a favorite individual daylily, although I am partial to warm yellows so your new Golden Child appeals to me immediately....Maryl

    My favorites are tied between Humdinger and Ruby Border. Humdinger is my favorite color in the garden. How tall is it? I enjoy your posts because most daylilies I've never seen before. Marg

    A fabulous group of daylilies. Hard to pick favorites with so many good ones, but I love the color of Humdinger plus the size. Peacock Maiden is pretty as is Ruby Border. Thin Man steals the show because of the clump and the size, definitely not so thin!! Thanks for sharing these with us. Avedon

    boy that name Humdinger really fits. I really like those paler shades of yellow. so nice...
    I'm not drawn to the contrasting colors of thin man, but I've seen some kids of it online that I've wanted-- and what a great clump of it.....great shots!.

    I tried to post a comment and I got a GW Spam Alert so I'll try again. Weird. I love all these blooms because I love the big ones. That clump shot is outstanding! How amazing to see all those huge blooms open at once! Ruby Border is gorgeous and I love that yellow. I just planted Look Here Mary because my favorite large blooms are the yellows. Great photos!
