sooby said:From the AHS Daylily Dictionary:
"Terms FAN, DIVISION, and RAMET are interchangeable. Each refers to an individual unit of a clump, containing leaves, crown, and roots. Within a clump, each fan is genetically identical to the parent. Also see: Division, Ramet."
"Rebloom" from the registration instructions:
"Some daylily cultivars have more than one cycle of bloom during a single season. These are known as reblooming or recurrent daylilies. Some of these bloom early, have a rest period, and then rebloom. Others have a succession of bloom periods, one after another for several months. Cultivars which repeat in one location may not do so in another, as repeat bloom is often influenced by climate and weather conditions. Check the "yes" box only if your daylily reblooms in your garden."

If we include the crown in the definition of a fan then we have a potential problem. What happens when one scape is produced by the fan and then it divides into two sets of leaves with two growing points in the same growing season? Is that now two fans or still one fan? If only one of those sets of leaves produces a scape in that same growing season is that rebloom?

A cultivar that has the ability for a single SAM to produce more than one scape would likely be a new mutation. It would be important as the SAM would survive flowering and scapes would be produced directly and routinely always from axillary buds. The axillary buds would not produce any leaves before producing the scape.

Adding another twist, found these two fans today on the same plant, each with two scapes and no leaves between. One scape on one of the fans had FFO today, none of the other 3 scapes have bloomed yet. Not thinking I have some new mutation but they do appear to fit what you described
