HEAVENLY DRAGON FIRE is a very intense 7 ½” orange red flower with a small green throat. It is the most intense color I have seen in a daylily. Purchased by every major hybridizer, which saw it this year in the garden. Great plant with 4 way branching and 17 bud count. Note pod fertility in multiple photo, very easy pod parent, full sun. Easy to use both ways. A great breeder for unusual forms. ......$100 Single fans
