A couple of red ones

Post by Patrushka »

Here are Thornbird and what I think is Firedrake. The other option would be Royal Mandarin. Would you call that a green or yellow throat?

Pretty pics Pat, thanks :D
I could never really tell the difference between yellow and green throats... but I know red is my favorite hem color!

Thanks everyone. :D

If that second one is Firedrake then it has a green throat. :???: I don't really think it looks very green. I'll have to check out the books at The Daylily Farm. They should have pics of both. I could only find a pic of Firedrake online and it does look very much like it.
