    This daylily sports a very fiery red orange bloom and is very deep in color near to the throat making it look very striking. But it is very short scaped in my garden. It's registered at 32 inches. I see nothing close to that height, mine only gets to about 8 to 10 inch scapes at the most. Very squat daylily in my south VA zone 7a garden.
