'Queen's Gift' - anyone have this?

Just curious. As generic as a daylily can be if mine is true to form, I'm just trying to make a complete listing of what I have and would like to be certain before ever getting to playing with pollen. Bought this one from a dear friend I've mentioned before that has a rather extensive collection. I don't recall going through her books of rows and I bought it as it had good bud count on a bad deer year. I just enjoy the visits and adding something new as I can, she said this one was "Queen's Gift". Blooms ML for me (later than my sure-thing EM's and M's). Came up on AHS and Tinker's database. The description alone works, bloom period is off and the pics on Tinker's site are waaaay off from what I've got. Mine strongly resembles "So Lovely" and curious if I might need to try to clarify. Easy enough to do this summer, I'd just like to be correct with names when the divisions head out this spring. Here's mine (not so good with the pale yellows, I've got maybe 3-4 pics total of this and none are "picture-perfect'). None of the other 'Queens G" searches came up with anything close, I'm kinda guessin' this one is off that chart...
Any help/thoughts/pics appreciated! It wasn't a NOID as purchased so I'd like to be sure when half gets gifted to a lovely young lady who's taken an interest to my silly hobby. Don't so much care if this one isn't it's namesake, just don't want to call it so incorrectly...

I doesn't look like QG to me. QG is very round, cream with pink highlights.

| Thanks Ed, the pictures at Tinkers pretty much led me to question this one, no pink at all to be seen. I'm pretty sure of where we dug this one and my friend has detailed lists and photo catalogs to scour through so I'm confident we can figure out who this one really is. (Gonna have to try some new techniques with the camera, the pale yellows and near whites come out with a screaming yellow throat that you don't see in person...pretty sure it's the flash but that's another problem for another day) ~Wes |
