@Paintedtrillium I don't think yours is Siloam Little Girl either although yours appears to be more pink than mine. The pictures of SLG I've seen are really pink. The paleness could be temperature or soil related but the eye doesn't look right to me either. I'm not sure I'll ever know for sure what it is because I have it planted in a place that is super dry and gets a ton of sunlight so I'm not sure how it would look in better conditions. Hasn't multiplied much but I don't want to move it because it is surviving and blooming in that spot and lots of other daylilies can't.

Thank you, bxncbx. Mine has also been a slow increaser. I tried searching the AHS database looking at the Siloam photos. I'm sharing another photo. I think the eye is quite distinctive and that might help identify it.

The plant that was sent to me as Cherry Cheeks last year, but definitely isn't. I've dubbed it Cheeky Cherry and it's a fantastic plant

Less fantastic, is the plant sold to me as Big Smile. It's not. Maybe I should dub it " Wry Grin"?
