>So how many hemerocallis hybrids are fragrant? A stroll through my >neighborhood turned up over a dozen different forms but none had a >significant scent. Dear Phil, I can't answer your question directly, but among the species 3 characters seem common: Fragrant Yellow Flowers Night blooming and among these, I think the very best is H. citrina followed by H. vespertina. These open late in the day and stay open all night emitting their fragrance in the evening garden. Some early hybrids like the classic 'Hyperion' continue this trend. I don't really know the extent to which these fragrant species have been used in modern hybrids. Best Jim W. -- Dr. James W. Waddick 8871 NW Brostrom Rd.
