From the AHS dictionary:
"The term "applique" comes from the French word for "apply", and in art refers to one material applied to the surface of another. Hybridizer Bill Munson used the term to describe throats in daylilies such as Hemerocallis 'Chinese Temple Flower' (Munson-I. 1980). An appliqued throat has the appearance of being raised and applied or painted onto the surface color(s) of the tepals. The applique can be variable over time and location."
I guess this is a distinction that I am not seeing in "Zone of Illusion" the throat to me does not have that painted on look about it. It has more of a normal throat appearance. But, looking back at some of the other flowers posted they actually don't have that look either.
