In the introduction year, A.B. Stout described it as:
"
Two colors with radial distribution enter into the pattern of the open flowers of this daylily.
The sepals and throat and a stripe extending out along the midrib of each petal are yellowish orange;
the petals outside of the throat and the stripe are of a pale fulvous red tinged with rose.
The flower is full and somewhat cup-shaped with noticeably rounded petals.
The scapes rise to about 40 inches and are well branched. The season of bloom has been chiefly in July and August.
