And of course I can't think of any names at the moment, but it seems like there are a lot that have fragrance. And it is a truly wonderful fragrance, sort of like honeysuckle, and maybe you need to stick your nose down into a bloom at first to get a good whiff. I notice it most during the heat of the day but before it gets too late, and I would think that in Florida your humidity would really bring out the fragrance. Also, I grow lots of daylilies in pots on tables, so many of the blooms are closer to my nose than would normally be the case if they were in the ground, and I notice fragrance a lot.
