Hey Jon,
I have had All Fired Up in my garden for over ten years. It is in the top five best performing daylilies in my garden. I got it as a DF plant---it increased to five fans the next year---ten the next. It looks a bit rough in the spring--but quickly recovers with beautiful medium green foliage. It is moderately resistant to rust, and some years I can hardly find evidence of rust on it. Scapes are strong and 3/4 way branched. Flowers are opened sequentially--so no bunching. Lots of scapes in bloom with reliable rebloom that overlaps the first set of scapes. It has grown the entire time in a 30 gallon plastic pot above ground (which simulates zone 6 conditions here), so it is one of those rare, cold-hardy, EVR's. The flowers have clear color with fairly sharp demarcation between colors. The flowers could be a bit more full---but then, one could go either way with it in crosses. It easily sets pods that actually make good amounts of seed.
