I've got American Revolution. Hated the name, but it's a lovely colour. I
must sit down and think of some of my others. The only one that comes to
mind is Franz Hall(s?), but that's just because it's the only bicolour I
have. Most of the Chicago series seem pretty good. I know I have a few but
will have to look at the tags. They are no doubt passe in the daylily
world, but us general gardeners seem to like them, maybe because they are
widely available and inexpensive compared to this year's introductions.
