This is a FANTASTIC garden daylily. Just an absolute blooming machine. Big bud counts, never hangs up while opening, every bloom is large and near flawless. Teeth on edges become more pronounced as later blooms open. Can't say enough good things about this cultivar...I'll be hanging onto this one for a long time and will always have it in a space that is prominently displayed.

Besides being a beautiful Daylily it has another attribute. I have 3 in various parts of the garden and they are all just starting to bloom. Many of my other DLs are done or nearly so. I expect to enjoy Marque Moon for another month or more.
