Daylily

Daylily, originally uploaded by trekr.

I couldn’t resist posting another Daylily. For me, they have the same fascination as the Clematis I posted so often earlier this year. A singular bloom of orange in a sea of green grass, and you can’t help but look.

I think this is a Kwonzo, a double flowered variety. Another name mentioned in the Wiki is Ditch Lily. I don’t know who named it that, but she lived next to a beautiful ditch.
