Passion for Purple Daylilies



GRAPE VELVET
I do have GRAPE VELVET and the petals truly remind me of crushed velvet. It has lots of blooms and holds up in our hot Tennessee sun.

MOUNTAIN VIOLET
MOUNTAIN VIOLET was hybridized by Munson in 1973. It is 36" tall with a large 5" bloom. It also reblooms.

LADY EVA
LADY EVA comes from the Blooms of Bressingham Lovely Lady Collection. They Blooms are a father and son team from Britain. This is one gorgeous plant. It is 30" tall with a 6" bloom. It also has rebloom. It is a deep purple with an eyezone of purple around the yellow throat.

CASTLE VIOLET LIGHTS
CASTLE VIOLET LIGHTS thumbnail doesn't do it justice. Please click on the link to see this breathtaking flower. It is a most unusual diploid. It is not entirely purple. It is really violet, but it is so beautiful, I couldn't resist.

PRAIRIE BLUE EYES
PRAIRIE BLUE EYES was hybridized by Marsh in 1970. It blooms are a lavender/ purple combination. It is 28 inches tall with 5 inch blooms.

SILOAM PLUM TREE
SILOAM PLUM TREE is almost a black purple. Its hybridizer was Henry P. The flowers are 4 inches. Flowers present themselves on 24 inch scapes.

STRUTTER'S BALL
STRUTTER'S BALL has cause to strut! This is a fabulous flower. It is a tetraploid hybridized by Moldovan. Flowers has a wonderful shape with a visible watermark on 28 inch scapes. I think this is one to get.

SWIRLING WATER
SWIRLING WATER is a plant I bought from Oakes. I love the way the white seems to swirl into the purple. It is a beautiful plant and grows well in this area.

Flash! Today (June 2,200) I picked up my order from Oakes. I bought LADY EVA and they gave me a free plant called LADY EMILY. My cup runneth over!
