A close-up image captures a single, fully bloomed Daylily (Hemerocallis) in a garden setting in Midrand, South Africa. The flower dominates the frame, exhibiting six broad, overlapping petals in shades of peach to salmon pink, with a prominent orange-yellow throat. Darker pink veins are visible on the petals. The reproductive organs are centrally located, featuring several bright yellow anthers on slender filaments, and a longer, lighter peach-colored pistil extending outwards. Two small, black ants are present: one positioned near the base of the flower's reproductive parts, and another on a green leaf directly beneath the lower left petal. The flower is surrounded by dense, strap-like green foliage, with the ground beneath visible as dark brown soil containing small aggregates and sparse vegetation. Blurred green foliage and a few faint purple blossoms are discernible in the background.
