As Brad suggested, if it was shipped to you by a reputable grower, they can help you; otherwise your chances are slim. I have two noids from local garden centers that were mislabeled when I bought them. That can happen in a couple of ways: A grower ships a bunch of one variety to a dealer but accidentally sticks one of a different variety in with them; I think that's what happened to me. Labels in the garden center can be switched by careless customers.

Garden center staff are not going to know one daylily from another. A gent at the help desk of one of the largest garden centers
in my area once told me that I cannot propagate daylilies from seed.

First there is no pic. Second, the chances of identifying a daylily from a photo are slim to none because so many cultivars look VERY similar.

Who did you buy it from? Asking them would be the best possibility.

There are currently over 80,000 registered daylilies and many of those look similar. So, identifying one by picture with any certainty is next to impossible. We all have the no identity daylilies in our garden and enjoy them for what they are.

My very favorite daylily is a "noid". It was labeled "Siloam Paul Watts" in the garden center and I liked it so much that I ordered more Paul Watts on line, only to find out that it is NOT Paul Watts at all - it's a noid!

Had to try. Thought maybe it would pop out as a certain one. Bought it at a horticulture plant sale, all they had was a picture.

Thanks
