Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Catastrophe Waitress')

A vigorous, well-branched, and well-budded cultivar with a rich, unusual color combo. Last year, it performed less well because of the unusual spring weather (late freeze) and dry conditions. My only reservation is that the flowers don't hold really well in afternoon sun. Pictures are from 2014 and 2015.

It is a good one that looks and performs just like it is registered here in zone 6b.

I grew this quite a long time (I don't have the space to keep anything for very long and still buy new things). It's a very unusual color and the bud count was ridiculously high. Nice plant that increases quickly, too.

This plant has done very well for me. It is very hardy, blooms prolifically and is a unique colour combination. I have it in a dappled shade area, and the colour holds very well.
