    The color of the flower on Herbgirls Cherry Moonshine is like no other daylily that I own. Impossible to put into words, so it's better to just look at the pictures. I love it so much that I moved it from the backyard daylily garden to a garden bed very near my kitchen door so that I could see it all the time.
