    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Here's a daylily that will cause heads to turn. Gigantic 9”, dark ruby colored flowers have unusual long spoon shaped petals that display in a wide flat maner, exhibiting golden throats and midribs, on 34" stems. Blooms in early summer...think Fourth of July here in New England.
