@Protoavis if you are trying to tell if a daylily is fragrant you have to try smelling the blooms at different times. I have some that are only fragrant when the bloom first opens, others by mid-morning, some pretty much all day long and others that only have scent in the late afternoon/evening. I have some seedlings I swore were unscented (from a very fragrant parent) but I typically only smelled them early in the morning or early in the evening. When I was able to give them a sniff at other times I found them to be fragrant. Most you have to stick your nose way in to smell them. I only have a couple that you can smell from a few feet away and then only on hot, humid days.
