When considering my top five, I considered the beauty of the bloom and the length of the bloom season (really important to me).

Oklahoma Sand Burr is a blooming machine here with rebloom scapes continuing until almost the end of the summer.



Cherry Ice Cream Smile is probably my favorite new daylily this year. It continued to produce rebloom scapes until late summer.



Mystic Image is always a favorite here for the beauty of the bloom. Love the double edge. It has a couple of reblooms scapes right now not yet blooming.



Cutting Loose makes my top five mainly because it kept churning out rebloom scapes, even after I would break them off.



Icicles would be a runner up because, just like Cutting Loose, it continued to produce rebloom scapes all summer and even after I kept breaking them off. Since it was a new plant, I didn't want it to bloom itself to death!


There are many others that are favorites here because their blooms are stunningly beautiful, but didn't quite have the length of bloom as my top five.
