"Spacecoast Freaky Tiki" is one of my stippled daylilies. This unusual plant has an orange base with red speckles all over it in a random fashion. No two blooms are exactly alike. This vigorous little oddity (3.25" bloom; 20" tall) looks just as beautiful in the late afternoon as it does early in the morning. The flower substance is somewhat waxy. Hybridized by the Kinnebrew family in Florida and introduced in 2006, this daylily has acclimated and grows very well for me in Wisconsin.
What is stippling? The term stippling or stippled describes the dot-like patterns produced in nature on the flower. Stippling dots can be so profuse that they produce a pattern on the petal bases and sepals. (It's the same concept as stippling in the art world -- kind of like the technique Monet used in his paintings.)
As far as stippling goes, many daylily growers are either lovers or haters -- I'm in the love group!
