    Wow! Many thanks to you and to Badseed for a fabulous article. I love the range of colors and forms in her suggestions, and all of them are stunning! Your descriptions are wonderful, and you found some gorgeous photos to convince me that all of these varieties belong on my wish list. :-)

    'Dragon's Eye' is a favorite in my garden, also, but you left out my all time favorite, the ever-blooming 'Happy Returns' (blooms almost as constantly as the omnipresent 'Stella d'Oro', but it has clear lemon yellow blooms, like summer daffodils). I have to admit, it's not as striking as the daylilies on this list... but it's very faithful.

    Thanks again for a great article with lots of lovely eye candy!

    Daylillies are so hardy and multipling. I particularly like purple, rose, and red ones. I don't know the variety name, but I have a huge deep red one that is tops in my book.

    Great read!!! I've been watching the DL forum and the posts of "favorite reds", etc. - I love the list here as it runs the gamut in size and color.
