A 30” dormant diploid; this lovely lady has 5” violet/lavender flowers. The throat is lime green blending to golden yellow and there is a little rose halo and cream colored mid-ribs. The lower petals are also washed with cream. A mid-season dormant diploid; she can be hard to find.

Daylily Cherry Cheeks
When you don’t want a red daylily but a light pink won’t give you the punch that you want then bright rosy pink Cherry Cheeks is for you. She really has a lot going on with her apricot/yellow throat and lighter pink halo plus cream colored mid ribs and bright spots that show on the lower petals when the flowers open all the way. Even the under-side is interesting as it is the color of the throat. Each 6” flower is a little different and it sometimes develops streaks of red, pink or yellow. This 30” dormant tetraploid has six inch flowers that bloom heavily in the mid to late season.
