====================================================================
Money Maker
(Gossard, James) 2015 introduction Seedling # E5
(Patrick Starfish) x (Emerald Starburst)
Diploid, Scape Height 37", Early Mid season, Dormant, Nocturnal, Fragrant, 9" Bloom, 3-4 way branching, 22-26 buds. Fertile both ways. Rebloomer. Very good rust resistance. Northern Hardy.
Flowers of Money Maker are magenta purple with a feathered purple-maroon eye zone and a very large green throat. For many years I disliked nocturnal daylilies because they start opening the night before and lose color by noon and close up by late afternoon. Living in the north we have cold nights, 50 degrees F sometimes. As a result flowers open poorly, the pattern daylilies seem to be the worst. I wanted a daylily that was perfect in the mornings after a cold night but yet take the high heat and still look good at 8 PM. Everyone said could not be done. However with this new line from Patrick Starfish and Emerald Starburst I got what I was looking for. A super good parent for hybridizing large patterned daylilies.
