OK, I think I got it now. Thanks for the article.
It is a combination of features that may not have been combined before (polychrome + teeth).

I can see how something fresh and new would be a big hit.
I can think of plenty great individual characteristics that would be good to combine together in daylilies. So this makes sense why it was sought after so much.
