Have you come across 'Green Kwanzo'? Someone gave me some a couple of years
ago and I had never seen it before. It is a double orange and from what I
can find out is a very old variety. One of the National Trust gardens near
me, Antony House, hold the national collection for Hemerocallis and I know
that the head gardener is a nut for them. Well worth a visit for any
enthusiast.
