Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Candle in the Wind')

I love this one,It has lots of big near white blooms on a very hardy plant.I don't think it is very well known but it should be in my opinion.

I love this one too, with some misgivings. Lovely blooms are very large and near-white, with good substance. Petals have ruffles and and sepals curl and twist. Apt naming! On the other hand the trifecta of trouble for me is that the scapes are shorter than I would like, the aging blooms make a hung-up mess if one doesn't dead-head, and our rust event of 2018 revealed that the plant is susceptible.
