Blooms later in the season. Big, imposing flowers. Modest bud count, but flowers are consistently good.

Outstanding daylily but should be planted on front row.I think it is a little shorter here in zone 6b than the listed 25 inches.

I agree with Boyd. Mine is in the front row. When I first saw RAM bloom my jaw dropped at such a large elegant bloom with the white on the tip of the petals. Ram will always be in my garden.

I ordered Ram in the fall and it's in a pot on my deck. I'm hoping it will bloom this season. Glad to hear the reports that it is short. I will put in the front row of a bed on the front side of the house.

I planted Ram in the Spring of 2021. It didn't do anything much except survive. The following Spring it still only had 2 fans. This summer, Ram produced two blooms. In the Fall, it still only had 2 fans. So not exactly showstopping, although the two blooms were nice. Hoping for more next year.

2023…not much more to say this year either. Ram produced three flowers July 15-27, and still only had two fans in October.
