I bought 'Challenger' from Plant Delights Nursery last year with the hopes of having a daylily as tall as I am. Unfortunately, it's topped off at around 3' both times I've seen it bloom, and while 3' is impressive for a daylily in my yard, it ain't 5-6'.

I'm quite disappointed, but perhaps I'm not the only one seeing as Plant Delights no longer offers this one. It didn't hit the height I was hoping for, and while the bloom is all right, it's not exactly the right color for where it is.
I'll probably move it and hope that maybe one year it'll get spectacularly tall.
The flower is pretty though ;-)
