    This is one of my "Little Jewel" plants that I love. I got a couple of starter plants in a daylily trade in 2015. It multiplies quickly, so I now have 2 large clumps that bloom from late March through May, which is early for a Midseason variety. The scapes are about 18" instead of the noted 12" stems. Even the cute wine-colored flowers grow to 2" plus, which is larger than the noted 1 1/2". I love them and watch for them early, as March warms up here in zone 9.

    Mine gets taller as well. The flowers are small but profuse. It is an attractive color, increases well and the flowers always have good form. While it isn't a bright attention-getting DL, I like using it in my garden.

    My 'Raspberry Pixie' daylilies grow to a *30 inch* scape height.......versus 12 inches, as noted in the details above.

    They are thriving in a part shade location, where they receive only morning sun.
