Posted by Newyorkrita (North Shore, Long Island, NY ) on Oct 15, 2011 9:21 AM concerning plant:

I had this daylily in my garden for many years even before I truely started collecting daylilies. It always did well and bloomed mid late season for me. But I just didn't find anything remarkable about it and since the off white/cream color is my least favorite color in daylilies I eventually parted with it.

Years ago, I grew Lime Frost and although it was beautiful in bloom, it wasn't a very late bloomer in my garden. I remember it blooming around mid season. It was only one of two whites I grew, as I tended to grow the daylilies that were in color. Pat Stamile must have hybridized and registered this one while he lived in FL.
