I got this from a man at a daylily garden, but he, himself, received it 25-35 years ago from someone who had it growing in their backyard. That means it's a much OLDER CULTIVAR, probably diploid (although I have no proof), and another hybridizer (whose opinion I highly respect and trust) looked at it and thought she might be very closely related to Fulva.

She has a beautiful MIDRIB, looks BI-TONE (I'm not completely sure what classifies as a bi-tone yet, though), has DARKER GREEN FOLIAGE than any of the other hybrids I currently have, and she appears to have 1-WAY BRANCHING with about an average of 8 BUDS? It's hard to tell on the buds because each scape has some that have fallen or bumped off. I put a tape measure in to let you guys determine what her average scape size is because I feel unqualified to make that determination.

Can anyone help tell me what little cutie I have? I referenced AHS, but I either get zero results, 4 results that clearly aren't her, or I get TONS of results (most without pictures), depending on what search criteria I enter.
