Hybridizer notes:
BROADWAY OPENING (Stamile,G.) TET {[(Strawberry Candy x Custard Candy) x Tetra Janice Brown] X Broadway Nights} 18” MRe. Dor. no fr. 2 7/8”. 4 way branching. 20 buds.

BROADWAY OPENING is a beautiful purple with a plum purple eye and lettuce green throat. This diminutive representation of the standard daylily gives this daylily incredible distinction. It is difficult looking at a slide to realize this is a perfectly proportioned miniature. As far as I know only a few people have pursued dwarf and miniature daylilies with the zeal Grace has. BROADWAY OPENING is one reflecting her achievements. Fertile both ways
