My plant grows 27" tall and although it is registered as a midseason bloomer, here in Wisconsin it is one of my earlies. Typical bloom time is from late June through the end of July. What a great way to start the season off!
'Dancing Summerbird' is in full bloom right now reminding me, once again, how much I love this dainty lilac-lavender daylily. Hybridized by Marc King-Lamone and introduced in 1997, this dormant diploid never disappoints. Every 5.5" bloom is consistent and looks picture-perfect, rain or shine. Dancing Summerbird is categorized as an Unusual Form (UFO) crispate (includes floral segments which have sharp folds giving a pinched or folded effect) and spatulate (segments are markedly wider at the end like a kitchen spatula). This gives all the flowers a very unique look -- they seem to be happily dancing in the breeze.

Lori C. sent me the URL for your website. Spectacular photos which I greatly enjoyed. Also the web layout is top notch. I was really impressed by the combination of photo load speed and the photo resolution. I assume you are working with a very good camera and a Macro lens.
