This is an exceptional, intense wine purple
with violet eye
zone and veining. The form is flat and round, with wide, overlapped segments that roll back a bit in warmer weather. The color is quite sunfast for being so saturated. The scapes have three - four way branching and thirty or more buds. This stellar performer shows great promise and produces lush plants. It is a great breeder and is fertile
both ways. Luther was a wonderful garden mentors and great friend. Luther was the renowned textile designer and artist, a Renaissance man, and daylily
connoisseur. His New Jersey farm and garden were a plant lover’s delight. This imperial purple daylily
is a toast to Luther and gardeners everywhere.
