Description:



Now, I know you're thinkin' "just how could such a pretty and elegant gal REALLY be 'fun'?". Well, I'm here t'tell ya's... she IS! SERIOUSLY!!!

I actually sat on this plant for a while before intro, because I though that based on flower alone (which is how daylilies too often sell)... she may not be packin' enough "zing" in that department to help pay the water bill. Her "look" is more sedative actually... clean, fresh, and pure. I finally decided there MUST be someone out there that will appreciate her physical candor! I figured this because EVERY year she'd catch me when I was TRYING to pass her by... and would be havin' the time OF HER LIFE!

HUGE voracious plants with enormous scapes everywhere, just pumpin' out blooms like there's no tomorrow! Lateral branches on this one reliably bifurcate, creating extra sets of terminal whorls... and many more blooms as a result. One of the most pod fertile gals in the garden, and though I've not been breeding with her for long, 2nd year seedlings are currently the largest out there. This particular color is easy to work with in that regard... generally recessive, yet her giant plant habit (and eye wash) carries on! Gotta love that in a gal!
