This daylily REALLY makes an impact. I love large daylilies, and this one truly fits the bill. Mine is too new to comment on how prolific it is or how good of a pod or pollen parent it is.
What I can say, however, is that it is a very distinctive daylily, with HUGE blooms. It's scapes are very tall and somewhat narrow. It also fared very poorly in the heat compared to several other varieties. I brought this home in the trunk of my car on a 90+ degree day (it was in there for a few hours) and it was the only daylily whose buds browned and withered, along with the top portion of the scape. Are some varieties of daylily more sensitive to heat? Perhaps, because its scapes are so tall, it is more prone to withering in extreme heat because plants, like humans, probably cut off 'supplies' (nutrients, water, warmth, etc...) to extremities in unfavorable conditions in order to preserve the bulk of the living mass. That's pure speculation, but it sounds pretty logical.
Anyway, I do love its huge blooms. I don't love pink, but this is a nice pink for a pink.
