Daylily 'Oakes Love'

Daylily 'Oakes Love' (hemerocallis)

Glad the weathers stayed nice enough for this one to flower, I've had it 3 years but never seen it flower, so last autumn I moved it to a less crowded spot and hey presto!, it'll be better next year but at least I have an idea now what it'll look like :-)

I'm glad it performed for you Kathy 3 years was a long time to wait but worth it :o)

I need to have more patience I think! This was a lesson for me!

I have one that is pulling the same trick (Chama Valley). The one next to it flowered, but next year will be its 3rd year. I also have one that has finally put up a scape (Above the Clouds) - I got it at the same time last year as Twisted Mint Julep (which flowered and rebloomed), and they are next to each other.
This looks like it has a lot of potential.

Good things come to those who wait!

Thankyou all :-)
Wylie this was a bonus plant from Sheila so even better, I really like it too :-)
I have to split a couple of big clumps near Slipped my Disco it didn't flower this year as it was too crowded.
