Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Admiral's Braid')

I've kept it, and it does have some nice blooms each year. However, it is not very vigorous here, and it is short by nature.

I would say Admiral's Braid performs the same for me as noted by Mantis above. It does have very pretty blooms but very low bud count.

Same performance here, it actually died several years ago. I had it a better locatiin in my garden, but it struggled. Pretty flowers, but not a lot, so i was not too disappointed when it died.
