  Franklinville, NJ — I call this The Little Daylily That Could. It just keeps chugging along, blooming its head off, looking cheerful and beautiful, seemingly forever. Very happy with Happy Returns!

  Chicago, IL — This year I started a mixed border with several each of Happy Returns and Stella D'Oro. HR actually bloomed MORe than the Stella d'Oros, where there would be one bloom on the Stella there would be 3 or 4 on the Happy Returns. And, they started earlier, too, and have kept on going, several blooms every day for months. This is one of the most cheerful plants I've ever seen. Every single day your garden will look nice. I'm really glad I picked it.

  Sherburn, MN — Such cheerful, light blooms! Definitely a good choice for those looking for clear, bright yellows.

  Galva, IL — It is all of the description. The only negative is it doesn't hold up well to rain which ruins the petals by making them thin. Even does well in semi shade.

  Madisonville, KY — This is my best bloomer! I have about 30 blooms today in one small area. The only reason I didn't give it a 10 is that I like showier flowers. I noticed that someone said they open in the evening and fade the next morning. Mine open in the evening and keep blooming all the next day. So every evening I have two days' blooms!

  Flushing, NY — A beautiful clear sunshine yellow that blends so much better with pinks than Stella de Oro. And it blooms and blooms and blooms!
  
  
  
  It's compact size makes it a wonderful edging plant or for the front of the border.

  Riverside, CA — This is a wonderful little lily. I planted these along my driveway and than kept my fingers crossed because when they put the pavers in for the sidewalk they filled this area with sand, I added what planting mix I could. They have had beautiful flowers all summer and are still blooming. Stayed lovely even during our heat waves. Couldn't ask for a better plant.

  Boise, ID — My two 'happy returns' are one year old and blooming well this summer. I really like the texture and sparkle of the blooms. It holds its color well and does not fade in the intense afternoon sun.

  sebastopol, CA — What a lovely little plant with delicate light yellow blooms. Interestingly, it starts blooming very late in the day - like 5 pm, is fully bloomed by dark, and the bloom is fading by morning. Maybe, at least here in northern California, it could be called a night lily! Planted it Oct 2005. So far, its not a prolific bloomer, but maybe that's because it's a dormant type.

  bassfield, MS — This is a beautiful plant with an extremely clear yellow bloom. I actually had blooms the second week of December! Wonderful!

  Elma, WA — Nice buttery yellow and cute blooms. It finished a bit early for me. Lots of blooms on scape.

  Mechanicsville, MD — Many blooms and a beautiful clear yellow. It is perfect for any garden. The foliage is also nicely shaped. I have noticed many nurseries carrying this variety now but I would still order from Oakes for a guaranteed healthy plant.

  Knoxville, TN — This will be the third summer for my Happy Returns. They are in a border bed with ornamental grasses and cannas. They have provided color continously all summer for the past two. In addition, they are wonderfully fragrant - the best of both worlds.

  Melville, NY — The color of Happy Returns cannot be over-rated. It is a clear, true yellow, with no trace of orange or gold. BEAUTIFUL! My specimen is presently being obscured by a Trumpet Vine (campsis radicans) that seems to be on steroids; nevertheless, "Happy" is about to produce a second flush of blooms which looks to be rather prolific. Thank you, Happy Returns. You will soon be in a more-deserving environment!

  lubbock, TX — The summer of 2004 was the first blooming season for this perfect plant. It began blooming in early summer and continued til Thanksgiving without interuption. The lovely yellow blooms add constant color and life to my garden. Great daylily!

  Oxford, MS — I ordered June 29; received July 9; blooming today . . . beautiful soft yellow flower. Cannot ask for more. Thanks, Oakes for the beautiful, large, healthy plants.

  Owensboro, KY — A very cheerful lemon yellow with a light fragrance and delicate ruffled blooms. What's not to love? It is a good rebloomer too! A great choice!

  Palestine, TX — You'll just love this little one. It's blooms go on forever. Love the soft lemon color.

  seatac, WA — The light yellow is much easier to work into the border than the harsher color of Stella de Oro. It performs just as well and that's a big compliment since

  Marlton, NJ — Very heavy bloomer, get's lots of compliments from visitors . Color is very pleasing not harsh and it performs well in heavy clay soil.
