| Neutral | On Jul 26, 2015, Rosiespring from Custer, SD wrote: Planted several maybe 15 years ago. Blooms are usually scanty. In hot sun, they are more coral but, as weather cools, blossoms become a pretty lavender pink. Have never noticed a fragrance. Maybe name on label wasn't correct?? |
| Positive | On Jan 20, 2009, Mainer from Durham, ME (Zone 3a) wrote: 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. |

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! |
| Positive | On Jan 30, 2007, Igrowinpa from Beaver Falls, PA (Zone 6a) wrote: 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. |

| Positive | On Oct 8, 2004, philomel from Castelnau RB Pyrenées, I love this one - and it's scent is very good, which is great as it's not a yellow, which tend to hold the monopoly on fragrance I think. |
