Daylily
The Suburban Rick Taylor |
The
daylily featured here and in the upper left corner of this page officially
bears the name of Rick Taylor, Executive Director of the Lake Terrace
Convention
Center
in
Hattiesburg, Mississippi.
The
daylily was presented to Taylor as a ‘thank
you’ for his support and assistance to the Hattiesburg Area Daylily
Society, in presenting their Annual Daylily Show plus other events
and activities.
Earl
Watts hybridized the daylily three years ago and evaluated
it through two subsequent bloom seasons to
be certain of the quality and consistency of the flower before submitting
the name to be registered with The American Hemerocallis Society.
The
daylily was presented at the 2013 Tourism Luncheon, at the Hattiesburg
Historical Train Depot on May 7, 2013,
by Earl and Barbara Watts of Suburban Daylilies in Hattiesburg.
