Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Absolute Treasure')

I purchased Absolute Treasure in 2013 at the Wisconsin Daylily Society sale August 17/18, 2013 in Madison Olbrich Gardens. It went in the ground that September and has bloomed in mid June every year since. It has never been splotchy or misformed in any way and has increased decently. It is beautiful and I would recommend this Daylily to anyone asking about it. Ann

To me it is really an Absolute Treasure, I saw it in a display garden and had to get it a good number of years ago. This daylily always look beautiful and will remain in my garden. I am pleased that they decided to show my photo of this daylily IMHO the photo speaks for itself, it is exactly the way it looks in my garden.

This one does great here. It is a beautiful shade of pink that is not seen in many.We love it!

I received Absolute Treasure as a 3 fan bonus from Park Lane Daylilies in 2017. It didn't bloom the first year, but it has bloomed faithfully every June since. I now have a 6 fan clump in my front bed. The pink is a lovely shade and I plan to order more this fall for another bed.

I only have a few daylilies but to me this one has perfect ruffling. I don't like the thick heavy ruffling that I have heard called chicken fat. Nice rich color also.

A classic that was a flagship the year of its intro and still deserves attention. As Boyd noted, it is an unusual, compelling shade of pink.

I remember when this was introduced and recommended that the club I was in purchase it. They did and I was able to grow it for two years. As payment for growing it, I was able to keep a fan. I have grown it since its introduction. I agree with Boyd and MantisOH regarding its color. I love the bagel shape and the ruffling. It never has a bad day. I just find it on the slow side as far as increase goes. It is still a fantastic plant.
