Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Usually on the list of favorite Daylilies by those in the know. This has very large 5"-6" almost white flowers with a whisper of lime-green in the throat. An easy doer which often reblooms in the fall. This would contrast beautifully with dark foliage like some of the purple Physocarpus which we don't have. Poor Joan Junior is working on her inferiority complex.
