I also started out with VIGILANTE, working backward, and came to the 
conclusion the unknown was most likely of BARCELONA heritage.  That's 
as close as I got.  Brice Rose's post (above) about P. T. BARNUM has 
proved to be right on the mark.  "Pat's Daylily Patch" came up in a 
search using GOOGLE and she has a picture.  There's enough detail for 
a positive ID.  P. T. BARNUM is "it."  Same shape of stds, same 
degree open, same fall pattern, and it looks like the same markings 
around the beard, although her photo is not quite detailed enough to 
say that last with authority.  I also have had the freeze problem, 
and two of my UNKNOWNS have turned out to be Barnum.  I have enough 
to replant and to make half a bushel of compost on the side.
