Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Antique Treasure')

This is a sort of unique looking oldie. Sometimes it's a softer peach with a pink outline. Sometimes it's a darker flesh tone with a magenta outline.



I find that it blooms pretty well, not too crazy. I have only had it for three years so maybe next summer will be the year it decides to really expand. Unlike many of the Wild cultivars, this one has its own unique look. The green throat seems to evaporate when the bloom is paler, after it's been in the sun for a while. I do like it though. It's pretty short, so good for a front of the border plant.

I've come to the conclusion that the real Antique Treasure is the unique looking, green throated, burgundy veined flower. I have a lot of the other ( lovely) peach with a burgundy edge flower on Daylily Hill and now I'm not sure what it is. So that one is a NOID until further notice. But the real Antique Treasure is quite beautiful. I wish it was more prolific but I love the flowers it does produce.
