I gave this its name because it came up in the middle of a daylily clump I have had for over 10 years. It is a strange one. So it is bee created I did not mate it with the intent of developing a different daylily.
The buds start to open and it holds in a position of growing as a half open bud until it gets big enough to open. This process takes about 2 days.
Day 3 it opens
Day 4 still open I do not see much difference except it appears to be a little lighter in color.
The buds stay open a average of 3 to 4 days before it closes. Depends on if it is cloudy/sunny. Cloudy it is open 4 days if it is sunny it closes in about 3 days.
It is extremely stiff bloom. The stem is also stiff almost a stem of a small tree. Perhaps because of the heavy bloom the stem has to be sturdy to hold the bloom. The blooms are about 7"
Nature is amazing.
