I ordered Bermuda Coral in 2021 from Along the Fence Daylilies in spring 2021 and received 2-3 fans. It is now 6 fans strong and doing very well in my zone 6b garden. I have not seen rust on it. It is definitely a late to very late in my garden. I have not measured scape height. One of the scapes from this year was probably around 3 feet tall, but the other was closer to 3.5 feet tall. The scapes are sturdy and do not lean.

8/2/2023 - It has very nice branching. Some with 5-way branching and 20 bud count.

It has a beautiful orange throat and the petal and sepal color seems to range from melon to soft pink. I guess that could be caused by the extreme temps, soil, time of day, or settings on the camera. Sometimes the petals don't want to lay open like they should, which gives the bloom an odd shape.

8/6/21 - despite being new in my garden it sent up a late scape and bloomed beautifully.

7/30/2022 - in 2022 it bloomed from 7/15 to at least 8/4 and still had a few blooms left.

7/15/23 - same in 2023. Only two scapes, but bloomed from 7/10 until at least 8/3 with a couple buds left.
