Plant Type: Daylilies

Huge 3-4 way branched scapes carry the buff pink, sweetly fragrant flowers in midsummer. Each flower has a narrow, red-purple eye ring surrounding the bright lemon yellow watermark and lime green throat.  It’s a distinctive tri-color look on flowers that makes it seem nearly round.  Each 4.5″ flower is of perfect form and with 35-40 buds per scape, you can imagine that it really puts on quite a show in the landscape.

This daylily is nocturnal, so its buds open in late afternoon and remain open for all or part of the next day. The daylily also has distinctive dark green foliage that remains attractive all season long.

Dormant tetraploid.
