Speaking about older daylilies, in 2010 when my passion for daylilies was taking off, I purchased the following daylily from Fay Shooter at Marietta Gardens. This plant has been a sheer delight for me in every respect. Faye did not tell me at the time of purchase that this daylily doubles. At least for me it doubles 50% of the time. It starts out as a single, and as the temps warm up, it begins to double for about a month, and then returns to a single in mid August as the temps cool down. This one bloomed for almost 8 weeks.

MERCURY RISING - Color is a burnt sienna with a red eye. Has many different looks during its bloom season. A delightful daylily.
