Plant Type: Daylilies

The “eyes” have it with this brilliant daylily!  Golden orange flowers display a very prominent, sienna red eye that covers at least half of the petals and a matching red, extra wide picotee, ruffled edge.  There’s almost more red than orange in this daylily because of its exceptionally large eye.  The colors are clear and vibrant, making quite a statement even from a distance. The thick, gold dusted petals glimmer in the summer sun.

Narrow, well-branched scapes carry the colorful 4-5″ blossoms in midsummer.

Dormant tetraploid.
