Until
BLUE ILLUSION came along I was
convinced we would have blue in daylilies when we expanded the blue eye to
cover the entire flower or happened upon some chance mutation in one of the
lavenders or purples. I hadn’t considered that the first blue might come from a
long petal or spider but BLUE ILLUSION
certainly has a blue under cast to an otherwise clean color mauve lavender
flower. I could see such a flower going as a blue.

Even
if you are not hybridizing you will enjoy this cool lavender and green flower.
Very fine. Fertile both ways but a difficult pod parent.
