Not quite, Wilber.

Hemerocallis flava is a later synonym for the wild species Hemerocallis
lilioasphodelus, a fragrant self-fertile true species and one of the
original ancestors of the modern daylily hybrids.

Hemerocallis 'Pardon Me' is a fragrant repeat-blooming hybrid with deep
red
flowers with a greenish yellow throat.

A back-cross with H.lilioasphodelus would probably lack most of the best
characters of the hybrid. Seeds from self-pollination could potentially
produce a wide range of flower colors.


Yes, it is H. species. Isn't that what I said? "The daylily H. flava is a
species daylily. Pardon Me is a hybrid. "

Wil, not Wilber
