Does the color of the anthers matter? Are they different because they are older, more mature, have different nutrients or what? I don't know a lot about daylilies except that they are gorgeous and I love them.
I have some Elizabeth Salter daylilies that are light sherbet in color with light anthers (I think that's what they are called) but I also have some that are a more vivid yellow/orange color with black anthers. Although I have some of each in direct sunlight and some of each in dappled shade I can always tell the difference between them because of the anther color and the flower shade. To my knowledge, these were all from the same original plant but I wonder if somehow I have another unknown daylily. I have added the bottom photo to the generic daylily parent gallery.
