Description is "pink with yellow ruffled edge above yellow throat" and other online images do not match.

I agree, those database photos don't fit 'Diva's Choice' whose description is, "Pink with yellow ruffled edge above yellow throat".

@Calif_Sue

I purchased this daylily as Diva's Choice and still have the original tag with the cultivar, along with a more permanent marker. I can post a photo of the tag.

This is how the bloom of this plant looks in my northern garden. You may chose to do whatever you deem appropriate with my photos of this cultivar.

Another thread to take into account on this on this cultivar.

I did a little research this evening and most photos online are the same as the one used on the tag I have. Sometimes the photo has been reversed, but still the same photo.
The other photos I have found are all different.
Here is one on a seller's website which is not at all like the description.

And a few more, all different.

Nurseries send out mislabeled plants all the time.

East River nursery is clearly wrong, even their description does not match.

Your blooms look nothing like the photo from the hybridizer, a plant breeder from the Netherlands:
http://www.heemskerkplants.com...
Their description "Lush, 5" blossoms are coloured a stunning cotton-candy pink and edged in bright yellow."

The Google search links (all three of your links are the same page) only have two images as Diva's Choice, the original pink with ruffled gold edge, as your tag shows and then your images from here. Click on any of the other images and they all lead to something different. That's how Google fills the page, if there is any mention of Diva's Choice on a page, it will show any related images, you'll notice Breck's.com several times with different images because Diva's Choice is listed with them, as the first image shows. Then it just uses the search word 'daylily' to fill in the rest of the images.

A new member from Wisconsin posted their photo and it resembles the description with the pink and gold ruffled edge.
