Hybridizer’s Notes
A cross of two daylilies from the program of my friend and hybridizing mentor, Tim Herrington. The name is intended to honor his influence with a little humor. I wasn't sure if I would get orange or red by crossing 'Halloween Green' and 'Fried Green Tomatoes', but I hoped to get a green throat and the good branching that are prevalent to Herrington daylilies. The resulting rich strawberry red has very smoothly finished petals with a subtle halo that accentuates the green throat and cream midribs, making it very showy in the garden.
