H. 'Reaching New Heights' a 2012 introduction by Bobby Baxter

H. 'Secret Agent Babe'

H. 'Secret Agent Babe' is nearly 100% polymerous with 7½" blooms. In the picture above the blooms are 9 inches!! Imagine how big that beast is that is hovering over all the "babes!" Big just keeps getting bigger at Daylilies of North Carolina where size matters, too!

Daylilies of North Carolina is the leading hybridizing garden on the planet for the advanced development of the polymerous form of Hemerocallis. We continue to march forward with unequaled diversity of size, color, form, substance, rebloom, and all desired characteristics of polymerous daylilies!!

In addition to leading the Polymerous Revolution, our tetraploid breeding continues reaching new heights with incredible clarity of color, vibrance, and form. We are proud of our daylilies and strive to create flowers worthy of your garden.


Why multiple images of our flowers?

Redefining Genetics

At Daylilies of North Carolina we are endeavoring to show multiple pictures of each flower on "individual cultivar pages." The picture above shows the cultivar page for H. 'Redefining Genetics' with 18 different images so that you can see the flower under different lighting, blooming, and environmental conditions. We do not want to post one "cover girl" picture that can misrepresent our flowers.

This website is a continuous work in progress and we started the individual cultivar pages with our own introductions. Please be patient as we continue the process by adding galleries of all the flowers growing at Daylilies of North Carolina.

Hemerocallis ‘Redefiing Genetics’ (Baxter, 2009)

Hemerocallis ‘Redefining Genetics’ is a 90% polymerous 2010 introduction.

H. 'Redefining Genetics' is over 90% polytepalous and is also an unusual form daylily that pinches and twists as the day goes by. Generally blooms in the 9" to 10" range on tall 38" scapes. H. 'Redefining Genetics' is a cross from H. 'Carolina Octopus' × H. 'Chief Four Fingers'. The maroonish/purple petal color is slightly deeper than H. 'Carolina Octopus'' and it has a higher polytepalous percentage combined with greater height. H. 'Redefining Genetics' is both pod and pollen fertile! Diploid.

H. 'Redefining Genetics' is another achievement in my pursuit for breeding "eight-legged spiders." My goal is to assist in the creation of an entirely new gene pool that will serve as the foundation for hybridizing spidery daylilies with eight "legs" which is typical of true arachnids. My previous daylily registrations that are part of this new spider revolution are H. 'Carolina Octopus' and H. 'Moosa Pa Loosa'.
