What do all these flowers have in common?

Brocaded gown

Siloam Double Classic

Wedding Band

Always Afternoon

All American Chief

What do all of these beautiful flowers have in common?  They have all received the highest award that can be given to a daylily.  They have all received the Stout Silver Medal award.   This annual award can be given only to a cultivar that has first received the Award of Merit.    This award has been given out since 1950, one every year.  This year's winner will be announced soon, I hope it's one that I already have!   You might want to grow a few of these beauties in your own garden.
