Positive	On Aug 12, 2010, NancyMcD from Grand Marais, MI wrote: Classic Rose is among the best daylilies I grow. The color is beautiful and sunfast; it shows from a distance - a good strong muted rose with attractive markings - without harshness. This unusual shade of rose compliments many other colors, working well with either purples or oranges, and is glorious with blues and yellows, particularly soft yellows. Classic Rose blooms for a long period late in the daylily season. It has been in bloom for a month and has many buds yet to open. The plant is healthy and rock-solid hardy in my Zone 4-5 garden. It will be on my Top Ten List this year.
