A young man often stops to talk to me as he rides by my house on his bike. I have given him a number of plants over the years and he has gifted me with some too. Most of the ones he grows are older ones. He came back today with a daylily bloom to show me and said he wants to give me some this fall. He does not now the name, so I'm hoping someone can ID it for me.
It looks about 7" to me. See photo with ruler. the sepals are medium yellow, the center has quite a bit of green and the ends of the petals are what I would can a light rose and the eye a darker rose. It might also be called a lavender or some other color. The yellow ribs are raised and it does have a mild sweet smell. He said it was tall. There is some diamond dusting.
The first person that gives me a name I am 90% is correct will get a free daylily. You can select from Whispy Rays, Adorable Tiger, Glorious Autumn, Julie Newmar or Lilting Belle. I will ship it to you in the fall.
