I received two fans in a trade with DaylilyDazzled back on September 16, 2019. So I don't have much yet to report. I was spraying for rust today and I have been checking it regularly for scapes and today I found scapes(no rust). I will get photos tomorrow and show how it is growing.
Edited to Add current photo:
The plant is now three fans with two scapes. So it is multiplying some.

This is one of the daylilies I got when I decided I liked the ease of caring for daylilies back in 08. It became my favorite for many years until I really started to collect more varieties and needed to make new beds for them. Big flower nice form. Unfortunately, the bed it was in got neglected and 2 years ago I did a major overhaul. It hadn't thrived among the weeds. I moved it down and it has come back a little, last fall I moved again to a sunnier bed and I hope it thrives there. It is definitely one I would like to keep around
