DogsNDaylilies (SE Michigan - Zone 6a) on Aug 1, 2017 4:35 AM concerning plant:
Yellow Hornet has spent over a year in my garden, so I was able to see it fairly well established in my garden this season. It clumps up quickly and nicely. The scapes are very tall and are pretty dark to start, with one side of the scapes remaining green. By the time the blooms had finished, the scapes had turned entirely green and the seed pods were mostly dark, as though the pigment had transferred from the scapes to the pods.
As for blooms, they are pretty and almost always well-formed, but they don't always open up entirely by themselves. Many times it took a gentle finger tap or running my finger through the petals for it to open. (Mind you, this was because I see/open the blooms when I begin my hybridizing routine in the early morning through mid-morning, so it's possible the blooms would have opened on their own given until noon or later some days.)
