Ginny-- pictures do get enhanced. I will add that if your daylilies are not yet 3 years in your ground, the color could still change. I bought a solid cream daylily and by the end of three years it was pink. I kid you not. It was George Caleb Bingham. This year in spring our temps fluctuated between high 80s and low 60s during the day. My Silver Veil would be cream when it was warm and lavender when cool same scape. So age, weather, humidity, and fertilizer can affect colors. Some daylilies if they do not like your zone may not match pictures. Give a daylily 3years before you say I do not like it. I have many that do not really look like their pictures but when my daughter photographs them they look pretty close to catalog picture. Nature has more colors than a camera or printer. You are on the right track to find daylilies in your area. Not only is it best to see them in real life, you know they will grow well in your yard, and the daylilies themselves will not have to make a climate change. Many blessings on your search!
One to take to heart....1 John 4 ..............................................Where there is smoke...there is fire...in most cases the smoke will kill you long before the fire consumes you. Beware of smoke screens! Freedom is not free and when those who have not paid the price or made the sacrifice...think that only they are right and entitled to speak...they bring us tryanny.
