Some of us were given seeds from Marty Wray's last crosses, soon after her passing. Here is a photo of one which ffo'd this summer. Would like to hear your thoughts on it. There was an idea that if anything were to be registered, it might bear the prefix 'Flower Fairy.' Name suggestions also are welcome! Thank you, John
Edited to add: you'll note the petals are pinched, and the sepals have almost-green 'bars', on each side of their midrib. The cross was ED BROWN X LESLIE RENEE.

Re: Seedling from Marty Wray seed
John you could honor her by naming the daylily after her, something like "Wray's of Light" or "Wray's Flower Fairy" or simply "Marty Wray"

'Flower Fairy Gossamar Wings'
'Flower Fairy Secret Sunrise'
'Flower Fairy's Pastel Curls'
'Flower Fairy Sitting in Sunshine'

I hope you'll share the name you come up with, that is definitely a standout!
