HERE LIES JIMMY HOFFA

Bret Clement 2017

(Summer Duck x (Nuclear Meltdown x Taco Twister)
36" x 5.5"M. Dor Dip2 way branching, 12 buds, rebloom, yellow pinched crispate, veined red eye, gold throat.

Buyers of this cultivar can claim to have solved one of the greatest mysteries of out times. The name is inspired by visitors to my house during the months when the daylilies are experiencing dormancy who see all my plant markers and comment "what is that, a pet cemetery?" I experience very little consistent rebloom from year to year here in central Indiana, even with northern bred cultivars that purport to be rebloomers. Here Lies Jimmy Hoffa is a consistent rebloomer for me which is important since the rebloom makes for a long bloom season that more than makes up for its otherwise marginal bud count. HLJF is extremely pod fertile (so pod fertile that I've never bothered to try its pollen) , a fast increaser and a good parent for patterned daylilies. Lower price is due to abundant supply.
