[ Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Where'd Y'all Go') | Posted on October 24, 2012 ]

From the hybridizer:
Excellent plant habit with flawless foliage. Increases quickly. Great plant for late season color.

[ Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Tower Power') | Posted on October 24, 2012 ]

From hybridizer:
Blooms always open without crowding and are extremely fragrant blooming right under your nose where you can smell them. Exceptional plant habit carries through to seedlings...it can improve the height and branching on round forms or improve the strength of scapes on more spidery forms equally well. The color is a clarifier.

A strong green infusion when it opens in the morning.

This variety is excellent staked, trellised, or in a hanging basket. Growth is light-textured, upright to spreading, and climbing in habit
