Not sure if this is going to open right, either it's a double or deformed. First flowers open always seem to be weird.

Not the right color, had to use flash on phone. It's a dark purple, and I think a blue eye. Can't tell yet, though.

Not really interested in double daylilies, so will have to see what the second flower does.

Will check it out in the morning and update picture.

Checked on the daylily before going to bed and it's open enough to get a picture. Will take another when I get up.

Can't tell if the eye is blue or not, the way the light is shinning(LED)

Guess it's pretty if you like doubles, myself rather not have extra petals in the middle.

Hard getting a picture under LED, best i could get. Will have to see this flower outside, LED tend to fade and do strange things to flowers.

Don't think the eye is blue, but it may be faded also. First flowers open, usually are not true colors. Will be a week or two before another flower opens.

Flower has grown on me, but stll would rather not have the extra petals in the middle. When i first saw the mass of petals, I really thought it was going to be junk......

I'm sure some would love it as is, being semi-double.

Being that I went to bed, and checked on it 8 hours later, it may have been blue. I could see blue eye when it was just starting to open.

I put my blue eyed seedling on it.

It's something I can use, so I'm happy.

Whether it stays semi double, or single. It has a fancy edge I like, shape is very good and it opens flat with good saturated colors.

Still semi double, not open all the way yet. It's 5% degrees outside, will check on it in a couple hours.

Will check on it later to see if it opens more.

Put Precious Candy on this flower, first flower didn't set a pod.

Not much of a difference in opening.

Last update for this flower, If I do happen to get a single form will post a picture.
