MACON MONEY (Davisson-J 2020)

Easily the most photographed daylily in my garden as the shape and presentation of this daylily is a delight to see. MACON MONEY is a pink bitone unusual form with lighter pink sepals displaying a pencil patterned halo. Sepals twist and curl creating gracefully detailed flowers. This is no "plain Jane" daylily and holds great potential for hybridizers with its bitone look and interesting sepal pattern in a pleasing color of clean, clear pink. Tall, straight 40" scapes with 3-way branching display the huge 9 1/2 to 10" blooms to perfection. Scapes average 16 buds and dole out uncrowded blooms over a long period starting midseason and blooming well into the late season. From a cross of GIRLS CLUB X ROSES FOR DALLAS it is proving to be pod difficult, but it has been a most used pollen producing intricate bitone seedlings with both cascade and crispate forms and patterning in pinks....a color neglected by those hybridizing for patterns and late season color. Clarity of color and hybridizing potential is outstanding.
