In the introduction year, A.B. Stout described it as:
" The flowers of this daylily are of medium-large size and they have a most unusual coloring for daylilies. The general tone is near capucine yellow: a sort of pale buff and pastel shade which extends well into the throat, where there is a delicate but definite rosy or pink tint which is slightly more pronounced along the midvein of the petals. The scapes rise to a height of 44 inches, and there are as many as 15 flowers in the two or three flowering branches that form an inflorescence. The period of flowering has extended from early July until August 12. "
