    Country French is another daylily listed as hardy only to zone 5 but which does very well here in my zone 3 gardens. I've had it for 5 years and the winters here do not even faze it.

    Whether you call this look 'frosted' or merely 'pastel' this is a reliable bloomer in the gardens. When you see several of the flowers blooming together, it gives me the odd impression that (somehow) I am looking at a bride's wedding bouquet: subtle yet elegant. - Not every daylily in the garden needs to knock your socks off from 100 feet away. If you are looking for a quieter, more peaceful bloom for a quiet reading nook or to set among your roses, this would be it.
