Yep, that's probably the day lily I have. After I crawl out of my nice warm bed, I'll see if there's still a tag. The flowers are not quite as golden as Monrovia's picture, but the variegation has been stable for 7-8 years. I forget what the term is, but it does grow plantlets at the end of the bloom stalks quite often. And don't even get me started on Monrovia's plant stealing, I mean patenting process.

I have 'Variegated Wonder', but just got it in the ground a couple of months ago. I haven't seen a lot of growth from it yet. I've heard that it has reverted, or at least become less striped for some folks.

'Sweet Musette' was one I remember liking many years ago.

Why is the name Howard Hite familiar to me?
