In the introduction year, A.B. Stout described it as:
" In comparison to the Georgia Daylily, this has a narrow, arching but prominent eye-zone in the petals. The throat is greenish yellow and the general color of the blades is near apricot-orange. The flowers are medium large. The scapes are 3 to 3.5 feet tall and they stand only slightly above the mound of leaves. The period of flowering is in late June and early July. "
