+AUDREY HEPBURN*

(Kirchhoff) 2005 30" EM VFr Re Ev 6 1/2".
Blends of pastel orchid and pink flow on top of a wide pastel yellow halo
that extends half way onto the petals. Green punctuates the heart. The
petal edges are spiked, ruffled, hooked, toothed, and splashed with white
gold glitter. With an ornate display of sharks teeth and pleated edges
AUDREY HEPBURN advances the double form to a new plateau. Smooth texture
with faint hints of seersucker and lavish diamond dusting, sunfast colors
and substance. Scapes have 3 - 4 way branching and are strongly recurrent.
A perfect daylily for the garden - or a table at Tiffany's! It is a parent
of spectacular pastel doubles with great form and stylishness. Fertile
both ways. 99.99% double, it has never bloomed single.

David’s first cross was in 1958, and his love of daylilies continues unabated. He is perhaps best known for his red and double flowered cultivars, although his two Lennington All American daylilies - MING PORCELAIN and CHORUS LINE were shades of pink. His two Stout Medal award winners – BETTY WOODS, the first double ever to win is a golden yellow, as is his single flowered, BILL NORRIS. David eagerly anticipates the challenge of growing and hybridizing daylilies for northern hardiness.
Mort Morss began hybridizing daylilies in 1971, and his cultivars are very popular and widely grown. His award winning, first introduction, was named INNER VIEW and it helped launch the popularity of patterned daylilies. Mort’s Lennington All American Award winning PAPER BUTTERFLY was the first widely acclaimed cultivar with a patterned eyezone. His unwavering pursuit of excellence in the realm of patterned flowers has resulted in a disproportionately large percentage of the most coveted patterned eyes and edges by cutting edge hybridizers world wide. The popularity of his cultivars is such that they usually sell out soon after they are offered and are beloved throughout the world.
