I like the look, I remember when 'Lights Of Detroit' was a big deal.
I'm not surprised that the coloration is variable, I think this plant is involved in Richard Norris' "color-changer" lines.
I bloomed Grace's 'Pathway to Miracles this year, which comes from the tet conversion of 'Substantial Evidence', it also has the "flat-from-the-throat" opening, and looks quite a bit like the third image in the top post. It's one of a small number of daylilies which open reliably here.
