"Pardon Me" (Apps 1982) 18" height. 
Midseason, reblooming. 2 3/4 in. flower. Bright red self with yellow green throat. 
Fragrant. Nocturnal. Dormant foliage. Petals beautifully crimped. Miniature 
flowers open in darkness, and remain open throughout the following day. One of 
the half-dozen longest-of-all bloomers. Donn Fischer Memorial Award (1985), and 
a very highly coveted Award of Merit (1987). In my garden this daylily has 
bloomed from mid June to mid August. Then it began blooming again in late August 
and continued on and off until a hard freeze in early November. What a grand 
daylily!
