Blooms faithfully now , at first had a hard time getting the single bareroot to survive the winter here but got a small clump amounting to triple fan size in a trade which has survived two winters now and is just lovely.

"Catherine Woodbery" was one of my first daylilies, given to me by a very good friend, so it will always be special to me. The fact that it's a beautiful, soft pink-lavender blend flower, with a wonderful fragrance and many blooms is just a bonus. It's an oldie but a definite goodie!

Pretty pale lavender that is striking in the garden. After blooming, the foilage tends to die off but returns and stays green until frost. I will always have some growing in my daylily gardens.
Another older variety that still holds its own with the new ones. Very pretty pink with no salmon overtones. Medium height, plant where noses can find it.
