Jan Kay

Jan Kay

(Wyers 2006) The petals are a soft pink with light cream midribs and the sepals are a light creamy pink. This seedling was a real bonus as a plant friend had really liked a daylily in an American catalogue years ago which was very tender and looked very similar to this seedling which has proved to be pretty tough. I had to name this after my special plant friend. It produces lots of flowers when it becomes a small clump making it a good focal point in the border. Tonia Gay was in the parentage of this very pretty daylily.
