    coram, NY — True to photo-gorgeous tall flowers-very stately show. Will be purchasing more of these for sure. First summer in the ground and already giving us its beauty in full force. A keeper!

    Hughesville, MD — If I could only have one lily, this would be the one. Fantastic bloom and rebloom - bloomed till frost here just outside of Washington D.C. This fantastic bloom with just over half a day of sun and not the best soil. And the color . . . just pulls the eye.

    Franklinville, NJ — As this endless winter drags on, I am SO looking forward to seeing this beauty again in my garden! Last year was my first summer of daylilies in my new daylily garden, and of all the species I bought, Eye-Yi-Yi was the most stunning. The brilliant colors draw your eye over and over again, plus it was long-blooming. I just could not stop looking at this gorgeous plant. Oh, please, spring, come quickly!

    Appleton, WI — This is a gorgeous lily. I planted it in a spot that gets ample morning sun. The colors shine all day. The blossoms are large and the buds are plentiful. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this one.

    West Hollywood, CA — These just started blooming within the past week and are absolutely stunning. Exactly as described. I ordered three last fall to see how they did and am so pleased, I'll be ordering a bunch more to fill the garden with them.

    Erie, PA — This daylily is stunning. It's one of the highlights of my garden; I have it planted next to some red flowers and they really complement each other perfectly.

    Conde, SD — I purchased this daylily because it has my two favorite colors - yellow and red. It is such a beauty and one you notice from quite a distance. It is only my first year and it had many blooms. I am ordering more this fall.

    Chicago, IL — VERY bright and eye-catching from a distance. Big flowers, not at all like a "ditch lily." I planted it last fall and have 12 scapes this summer. The plant is very vigorous and bushy w/ nice foliage and a nice overall shape. Mine is a bright, clear orange, not as "melon" as in this photo. It makes a great contrast planted next to Anzac (red) and my hostas and coneflowers with lavender blooms. I will definitely be dividing this in the fall to spread around the garden.

    bristol, TN — I can't believe this plant! NOTHING stops it from blooming. When I got home from your festival it was late and I was tired so I put it in a bucket of water and went in. Rain and too much overtime prevented me from getting it into the ground for a week. Just to show me how tough it was - it started blooming in the bucket and kept right on blooming through the whole planting thing right up til now. WOW!

    Houston, TX — I just planted this in April, and it already bloomed in the first week of June. The flower is huge (I could swear it is at least 6") and the color is brilliant orange -- even brighter than the photo shows. It is in full Texas sun and is blooming profusely.

    Melbourne, FL — This has a flower that certainly is eye catching. Did not bloom as well as I would have liked...maybe it will produce more blooms next season. The colors are outstanding and hold color well, even here in hot Florida.
