Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Suddenly Last Summer')

Beautiful, perfectly formed flower and a BIG plant...give it plenty of space to grow! Like other intros from Curt Hanson that came out of WOMEN SEEKING MEN, it makes huge fans and tall, sturdy scapes. Wonderful color saturation that stands up to rain. Flawless foliage. Excellent in every way.

Mine is not up to clump strength yet, did not like where I had it so I moved it to a better location which set it back somewhat.
The blooms have good color saturation for how darkish it is but that's all I can say since it has not gotten up to or had enough time to get to specs because of when I moved it

Was not surprised to see Joan Derifield in its parentage, as colors resemble. Fortunately, it is not quite so large as parent Women Seeking Men. Vigorous, and color holds fairly well.
