    It was actually thrown on the Compost Heap, Simbad, a couple of years ago when I was dividing them in the border and had too many. But the clump rolled off unnoticed and spillage from the Compost covered it, with the result you see:snork:

    It is a lovely Day Lily but the i.d. is in doubt. Spruce liked a picture of it and also the other variety I've got [Royal Oak] so I sent him both. He researched the name it was sold under to me "Spring Air" and came up with another name.....which I have forgotten [sorry Spruce:heehee:], no doubt he will come to my rescue and name it again for us. The offer of them being sent to any one who wants then is open to you should you want to add them to your collection...if you haven't got them already:snork:

      Thanks, Spruce.:snork: I think we agreed the name of the second variety was Royal Oak so you needn't get wet in the rain:heehee:

              It only goes wrinkly around the edges, simbad, if you stay in the bath too long!:snork:
