Those are real beauties, Dot! I have WISPY RAYS, LARRY'S OBSESSION and TALLADEGA too. I just got WISPY RAYS and haven't gotten it in the ground yet, and LARRY'S OBSESSION did not bloom this year for me but I have high hopes for next spring! The one that did bloom but I must confess I was disappointed with when I saw it was TALLADEGA, but that was because I'm pretty new to daylilies and expected to see the fire engine red color that was in the hybridizer's picture. In fact, I was so disappointed that I almost gave it away! But I'm a little wiser now and realize that so many of those pictures have been color enhanced, so when it blooms again in the spring I can appreciate it with no great expectations because it really is a very pretty daylily. And your picture is the true color I remember -- you really captured it!
