This is an old day lily called Bonanza. I’m not certain how old this hybrid is, but I believe it was created 40 or more years ago.
It’s a fantastic performer in the garden. I think mine is on it’s third flush of blooms this summer. It might even have bloomed more times than that but it’s at least three times.
I like day lilies for their dependable blooms. Particularly those that re-bloom. Do you grow day lilies?

I will soon be preparing some bulb beds to do some fall planting for the first time in my garden. I’ll get whatever becomes available in the nurseries–and I understand that I can plant daylillies in fall and spring, so I’m going to try some!
