I found some beautiful day lilies in bloom today at the Los Alamos farmers market and bought a dark red one -- but they had other colors too. You might try the Santa Fe farmers market. I have not found such great ones at the nurseries, most of the time. I also order them by mail from Diane's Seeds and from Marriott -- which has a few that won't break the bank. I am constantly amazed at how expensive daylilies can be -- even more than brand new iris introductions.
Here is the one I bought today at the farmer's market-- Baja. It is actually a little darker than it appears here. It got a little banged up on the way home.
