Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Tropical Heat Wave')

Increases well for me, blooms great, nice sturdy stalks, and the color is intense. Each bloom is perfect, I don't recall seeing splotchiness or blooms that didn't open well. Also have not had any trouble w it coming back after winter.

This is my first season with TROPICAL HEATWAVE. It has flowered well and appears to have some resistence to rust. It is easily a pod and pollen parent so far.
