8/2020 Update:I was worried that this daylily wouldn't make it. It arrived with shriveled, dark brown roots and it was a small fan. It made it! The blooms are beautiful. The pollen is good and it set a pod. I'll be playing with this one. It's also diamond dusted. I love the shimmer in the sun!

Tangerine Scream (unregistered seedling by Micah Lewis)

2024 Update: No extra fans

 
 This is a plant I got from my friend Micah. This is one of her seedlings that she hasn't registered. The name is a garden name right now.

8/2020 Update: I had to wait until August to meet this bloom, but it was worth it!  She's a large bloom. The first was 6-7" wide. She has nice thick petals with a slightly ruffled edge. She shimmers in the sun, too.

Next year I will track bloom widths and scape heights. This year the plant is smaller than it will be later.
