looking for "ditch lilies"

sundry Franklin, LA(Zone 9a) Jul 14, 2003

I'm totally new at this plant trading thing, so be gentle ... :)

I've discovered that I simply must have a few of those native daylilies that everyone else seems to be overrun with (Hemerocallis fulva ?) .

All I have to trade is the following:

Several med. sized fans of unnamed daylily - either pink or purple, not sure which. (long story lol)

Some of the tall yellow daylillies that are so common here (Hemerocallis flava ?)

A few nice divisions of hosta Albo Marginata

A few nice divisions of an unknown hosta (small, variegated)

Lots of swamp iris (yellow flag, I'm pretty sure)

Or, I can just pay postage, and owe you one?
I'm going to try to root cuttings from my gardenia, Weigelas and hibiscus. (wish me luck)

Thanx!

H. flava is the lemon lily, very early blooming. A nice one, and fragrant. Grows true from seeds.

hmmmmm, Pardancanda, then I'm not so sure. This one is tall, usually at least 3 ft, but last year (2002) the scapes were almost 5 ft. It blooms in late april, early may, sometimes until the end of may, not too early.

I had been told it was the St. Joseph Daylily, which is AKA H. Flava.

Now, I wonder just what it is.
