I purchased this when it was very new because I play bluegrass music and in the picture the edge was so very blue. It is not quite that blue in real life but still a nice daylily. It is not the most vigorous of all the plants I grow but adequate.. I moved it to a new place where I can keep the weeds at a distance better now. The plant responds to just a little TLC like that. Maybe a touch of fertilize of some kind too. The blooms do not always open real flat like I prefer but when it is good it is really good.
