Daylily cross - Magnificent Hummingbird x Audubon's Oriole


Daylily cross - Magnificent Hummingbird x Audubon's Oriole

This should have flowered last year, but didn't. I kept it, hoping for something this year, and then last month it started, but the flowers were affected by the arrival of fall. Finally I got a flower today that shows its potential, and why it will still be with me next year.
I would call it a bone china with a cerise eye and yellow green throat. I cannot wait to start using it.

Thanks - I really like how thin the eye is.

I had given up on it doing anything this year; and if it didn't have such great parents, it would have gone last year.
