I grew Applique for several years. It was very hardy and increased very well in my garden. Like a lot of daylilies, it didn't
rebloom here, but it did have an abundance of flowers. It was the first to bloom in my garden, and the first to stop, which
was it's undoing. While the rest of my garden was in full bloom, it was the only plant with no blooms. Mine may have
actually gotten a bit taller than 30 inches, and the flowers maybe slightly smaller than the registered 10 inches. While
being the first one to send up scapes, it was always an easy target for deer, but it was otherwise very reliable. Having
the applique really made it pop. The photos show red and also deeper purple, but mine was more of a lavender purple
without any trace of red at all. I seem to think that it did produce pods well too. While listed as an evergreen, the plant
was fully dormant here, and always dependable. I can also say that the flowers were never spotted, and they lasted through
most of the day. Spent blooms dried up quickly, but were slow to release, so it needed a little help to keep it looking nice.
