Hush Little Baby is very rich! nice.... I'm glad to see a post with diploids! woo hoo!!!
I also really like that Kansas Kitten, I think it was a winner last year for Region 11.
of course my favorite here is the same as your, Siloam Ralph Henry. such a devoted hardworking man. I think of him and remember how in the morning he'd be outside in his Henry Hardware overalls working on some project Mrs. Henry had put him to. Good to see his name go on in such a great plant! :)

Do all of these grow well for you? I can remember years ago, I ordered True Pink Beauty from Marietta Gardens, and the fans were so small I sent them back; I thought, if it's not growing well in North Carolina, what will it do here?

Look at Fashionaire, a beautiful pink to start off with! I do love pinks! And a Bennett, look at that! I have four of Bud's plants (I think) and I suspect I will come to regret I don't have more. Like this one, haha.

How does Forsyth Frostbound grow for you? I keep it because I think it is so distinctive, but it is not a strong grower for me...at least where I have it. I would love to hear it's a superstar for you as that would encourage me to move it, lol.

Mantis, not that this applies to you in Ohio, but Blue Pink Beauty took years to settle in here (and that's with decent sized fans). However, the last two years, it has been a star. Amazing scapes and way taller than 28 inches (which makes me happy). It is a tet, though, I am starting to believe that some things just take a very...very...long time to like it here.

I must go look at your others! Enjoyed these.

Right off, I love Fashionaire. It is a beauty! Hush Little Baby is my second favorite. I like a lot of dips.]

Nice grouping David. I see your daylilies aren't wilting from the heat.

Blue Pink Beauty is a different cultivar from True Pink Beauty. Blue Pink Beauty grows very well here, and indeed it is taller than the registered height.
