You found the name of the last one for me so I have two more I would like to try to name and you seem to be the place to go!!
Thank You in advance,
Robin
Does anyone know the nameof this one?
Don't know, can tell you its Not:
Classic Bordeaux
Dynamite
Red At Night
Maybe I will get lucky and someone will know.
The photo is too bleached out to be able to ID it. Try taking plant photos on a overcast day or try to shade it. Digital cameras picks up light when you think there isn't enough. The color will be more saturated and true and without shadows. I never take photos of plants in sunny weather. If the day isn't overcast, I wait until the sun is almost down in the west, or have someone stand to shade it.
Thank you all for trying. I think that is overcast it has rained for weeks here. It is very very close to the right color I can even see where it gets darker around the edges, that is what it looks like. I have one more I will post in a bit.
I was wondering if it could be LADY FRIEND or SPARTAN...
Oh Leightonhill you could be right...it looks more like
Lady Friend http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/showimage/79718/
Do you think? It has fewer red/orange tones than Spartan more Purple/wine colors like the Lady friend
It looks black just before it comes to full bloom.
Looks like it could be... Do you remember where you got it?
It seems it was in Bowdoinham but I cant be sure...I have another picture someone else thought maybe the colors were a little bleached so I am going to try it again. I think it is very close to Lady Friend though
If you ever get down this way... (of course my Iris have gone by), and you like daylilies.. .stop and see the garden... Just dmail me.
In the plant files, Lady Friend doesn't have yellow beards.

Neil you are right they are orange aren't they... maybe that is why Blomma said the photo was washed out.... maybe they are orange and look yellow... more pictures I guess... Leightonhill thank You for the offer....we will talk.
not Lady Friend. I have the true Lady Friend, and this is not it.
the pattern near the beard isn't right
the beard is more redorange, this is more yellow
this has more of a faded out edge. LF has a darker edge, not a lighter edge.
