'A.W. Shucks'

4.5 x 26 M Re D  SPIDER Ratio 4:1 Petal Width 1.25 Length 5. It is dark red purple with darker eye on recurved petals and quilled sepals surrounding a larger yellow green throat. Named for A.W. Shucks of  Cornatzer, N.C. who came out of the boondocks in Region 15 and started sharing humor with folks in the daylily world with his “Kernels of Truth” philosophy. His witty & amusing stories are still a main inspiration for me writing humor and history articles in Georgia. This will be a daylily in years to come that you don't need a name tag by it. You will know it is as A.W. SHUCKS. It is a sneaky and deceptive spider. Sometimes the tips of the sepals will turn and show a yellow color.  However it will always dazzle you just like A.W. does with his humor.

'Alabama Sweet Tee'

28 x 7 M Re Sev UNUSUAL FORM. Lilac with purple veining and a 2” green throat surrounded by yellow blending into a 3” center point of the petals and sepals. What is very unique is the stippling and/or splotching effect which makes this a classic example of a “plicata” daylily. The lilac plicata, stunning throat, and above average bud count and branching makes this daylily very distinguishing and is named for a wonderful daylily connoisseur and friend, Teri– (Tee) Money, from Headland, Alabama.

'Along Came Amanda'

26 x 4.25 Em D Re . This lavender with a purple eye zone above large green throat that extends onto the sepals and petals is loaded with distinction. It is named in honor of Amanda Jack Hotaling from Delaware. An adult now, she was an outstanding AHS youth member with a terrific love of daylilies and especially the OZ theme daylilies. I mentored her for several years as a youth in high school with the F.F.A. program and visited her garden twice in Delaware. Also, I would see her every year at the DVDS Show in Pennsylvania at Longwood Gardens where I am a member of that club and honorary member of Region 3. Getting to know her has been one of my highlights as a member of the AHS. What makes this daylily so unique is the form, color and eye pattern which all combines to create a very distinctive daylily.
