CASEY AT THE BAT (Reed, 2005) 42” M 7” dormant, diploid. Named after my favorite daughter, the softball player, this daylily has a black eye! The bloom is very ruffled and has a narrow, exotic form. The dark wine-red/black eye is in high contrast to the pale gold/parchment background color. There is the slight beginning of a picotee edge in the dark color. This daylily presents many different faces, but is always very showy in the garden. Fertile both ways, and often reblooms
