Olympic Mystery

Hemerocallis 'Olympic Mystery' (2004) Tetraploid, Peach pink with cherry eye & edge above yellow to green throat. 35" scape, 4.75" flower, EM, dormant, 4 branches, 18 buds, emo. (Unknown X Unknown), Seedling #97-25A.

An established clump of H. 'Olympic Mystery' in bloom has a clean, crisp look. The clear cherry eye and edge complement the creamy peach-pink base color of the petals and sepals, and is faintly echoed along the veins, giving them a slight embossed look. Flowers usually are wide open by 6 or 7 a.m.; the only exception has been for the first blooms in the years (such as in 2004) when bloom season is unusually early. Sturdy scapes hold the blooms clear of the foliage. With a bloom season of a month or more, attractive foliage, and a pleasing plant habit, 'Olympic Mystery' is a valuable addition to the landscape as well as a focal point in its own right. The plant is vigorous and a fast increaser. Fertile both ways.---$15.00
