DayFlower

I am not sure what exactly the name of this flower but I like to call it Dayflower because it only last a day, just like the hibiscus flower. I think maybe it is a Daylily or Iris. But it is so lovely so I have to wait till it opens so I can take a picture of it because I know it won’t last long. My day seems a litlle brighter each time I see flowers in my garden.
