30" E Re Ex Ev EMO 5¾" - 6". Dr. Arturo and Dr. Nina Imperial's sub-tropical garden in Lake Jackson, Texas contains one of America's premier daylily collections. Reflected by the blue waters of a huge lake, their spacious garden reveals exquisite taste and horticultural excellence. ART IMPERIAL is an opulent orange red color with a yellow to green throat, encircled by a ruffled, gold edge. The blooms are of medium substance, and the clear color shows singular saturation, intensity and brightness when planted in light shade. The form is so flat and round as to be unique in both size and refinement in this singularly assertive color. Little wonder that Timber Press features its photo on the cover of their new Color Encyclopedia of Daylilies advertisement brochure. The strongly recurrent scapes have 3 way branching and 20 or more buds. A paragon in the garden, providing unique, blazing color, all the more enhanced by a wide stripe down the center of the petal. Fertile both ways. JC AHS 2000.
