John Benz

(Benz, Gossard,Genho, 2023) Tet.  (Flaming Phoenix x Ruby Shuriken) 6",  28", Dor., Re., 5-way branching, 24 buds.

Ruby red with lighter red watermark, teeth and fangs vary from white to chartreuse green, and a green throat.
John Benz's final registration and he considered it his greatest accomplishment. At John's request I was increasing this wonderful plant for him when he became ill and was no longer able to manage his garden. This flower is a fitting tribute to one of the most accomplished hybridizers in the daylily world.
Jamie and I named it for John with his permission.

Pod and Pollen Fertile.
