Professor Ninglecut (Forestlake Laura Lee Harding X Bass Gibson) has a 37 inch scape with 3 way branching and an average of 15 buds. It is a six-inch medium violet flower with a slightly darker band and ivory to light yellow and violet teeth with a yellow throat. The presence of the violet coloration on the teeth makes this daylily interesting addition to the garden.
Professor Ninglecut is named for a character in a play written by two of our children. Koda, our son, took the role of Professor Ninglecut. We choose to name a purple daylily after this character because he wore a purple vest.
