Here is "Unique Style," a daylily hybridized by Kate Carpenter that I've had for quite a while. This older bicolor daylily (registered in 1985) has everything you want a daylily to exhibit. The foliage is always a dark vibrant green and the dainty 3.25" flowers perch just above the foliage. It's a perfect front-of-the-border plant, growing approximately 21" tall. Unique Style is a reliable, profuse bloomer. Last summer it had over 20 scapes filled with flowers. It was also an 'Honorable Mention' award winner in 1992. Being a dormant diploid, it does great in Wisconsin.
I purchased this daylily from my friend Sally's mom. Years ago, every spring, Sally, her sister, and her mom had an annual plant sale. Daylilies were the backbone of their gardens. They did careful research as to what plants to purchase and took many road trips to various hybridizers' gardens throughout the Midwest. I knew any plant I purchased at their sale had many positive attributes and was perfect for our climate. Even with all the enticing new daylilies being introduced, Unique Style will always have a place in my garden. I absolutely love this little gem!
