In the introduction year, A.B. Stout described it as:
" All of these clones have foliage that is dormant or semi-dormant, and all have proved fully hardy.
...
Four of these clones have small full-petaled flowers (figures 1, 2, and 3) mostly two to two and a half inches in spread. These clones differ in stature, in periods of bloom, and especially in the flower coloring.
The 'Goldfinch' daylily has flowers that are uniformly golden-yellow, the period of flowering has been in late June and early July, and the scapes have been as tall as thirty-six inches. "
