‘Ravenmaster’ has been a standout daylily having proven itself for many seasons. It is a full sibling to my 2021 introduction, ‘Nova Scotia Ice Wine’ from the cross of ‘Inspiration Road’ and my introduction ‘Emerging Star’. It has a good mid-sized height of 31” and a large 7” flower. The colour is an intense very dark purple black and a green-yellow throat. When it comes to blooming it is no slouch, as it has an average bud count of 30 per scape! Besides having a great bud count it also has 5-6 way branching on the scapes, which holds the blossoms apart and provides a fantastic show on an established clump. It begins blooming in mid-season, but the high bud count carries its bloom time well into mid-late and late season. The intense almost black colour stands out wonderfully when planted with yellow, near white, and bright orange flowers. The flower form is a Pinched Crispate Cascade, Unusual Form. The name comes from the title given to the person in charge of taking care of the ravens in the Tower of London, the ravenmaster. This is a great daylily with superb intense colour, guaranteed to add another dimension to your garden.    $65 DF (Double fan)
