This beautiful daylily is a worthy choice to bear the name of a hugely talented artist whose love for daylilies is quite contagious. The reviews from discerning daylily connoisseurs, top daylily hybridizers and just plain normal folks have been raves! The color is apricot with a lavender purple eye outlined in wine and echoed on the double to triple edge. The dramatic edge matches the pewter lavender eye, outlined in wine and splashed in gold. The form is EMO, overlapped, widespread, and full, with pleats, piecrust, tendrils, and fascinating adornments on the multicolored edges. The sparkling diamond dusted texture; substance and color hold well. Fertile both ways, transmitting the double ornate edge - and various unique, desirable qualities to its progeny. Three way branching and strongly recurrent scapes.
