Day lilies, Not the First Flowers

Day lilies, Not the First Flowers (Hemerocallis)

Picked off the first flowers on these two varieties, as they were distorted with Gall Midge. I think the first is Pink Damask, had it for years, but first time infected, also Daring Deception, which I bought 5ish years ago.

oohh sorry to hear you have gall mite , pick the buds off and put in a bag in the bin DONT compost them, luckily it only effects the early bloomers.

Yes Siris it is "Pink Damask" I can not be 100% with "Daring Reception" is it possible to have another photo ?

Thank you Gg, for your id of Pink Damask. 'Daring Deception' was bought as such. Much too wet at the moment for another photo, and it's a muddy colour pink anyway.
I have already picked off the contorted buds and binned them. The ones to come look clean.

Soon Daylily season will be in full swing, Daylily with that name must be your passion.
3pbit, only grow a couple of Fuchsias, but next door has loads, they don't seem to suffer from anything there.
