Nursery contributed plant descriptions

We can't understand why everyone isn't growing this great little daylily. It blooms remarkably early - with the first bearded iris of May - and profusely, even in the half-shade of our old grape arbor. Its graceful, star-like flowers are a cheery yellow-orange that's somewhere between mangoes and California poppies. And it's one of the oldest survivors from the very dawn of daylily breeding, by school teacher George Yeld.
