One of my other registered daylilies is starting to rebloom. As advertised in the official description, there are 35 buds on it. There are also 7 scapes full of buds getting ready to bloom, so it should be spectacular.

It is a small flower (4.5"), so lots of room.

DIPs usually have a lot more flowers than TETs, which is one of the reasons DIPs are converted into TETs.

Explain please what are DIPs also TETS also what is the difference between the two .

Dip is short for Diploid. It has 22 chromosomes. Tet is short for Tetraploid, which has 44 Chromosomes. With the difference in the number of chromosomes, it is why the 2 can never cross. It is possible to double the number in a DIP by using a chemical that is extremely hazardous. But the converted plant will then never cross with a DIP.

Look at those clusters of buds! I hope there is room at the top of the scape from them to be displayed to their full beauty.
