I've had Pastures of Pleasure for a while. First planted in 2018, a small shriveled fan from G Wild, it took a while to get going.

The first year I started keeping records was 2021. It bloomed from June 29- August 5 with 16 flowers and ended with 7 small fans in October.

In 2022, POP started the season with 14 fans ( big increase!) and bloomed from June 30- July 21 with 30 blooms. It ended the season with 12 fans ( lost a few).

In 2023, POP had 17 fans in April. I'm starting to think some of the fans go dormant early. It had a very prolific blooming season from July 5-28 with at least 53 blooms. It ended the season with 12 fans in October ( again, fewer than what was showing in April).

This is a very pretty color that I rarely see on another Daylily. It's a cross between pink and lavender. The flower has good substance and usually presents well without blotching or weird forms. It's very short, it has to be near the front of a border, which is where mine is. It's not fancy but it's still nice, especially as it clumps up. I like the round form and slight ruffle too.
