There are 7 varieties of double daylilies with slideshows below. My two favorites are Susan Pritchard Petit and Candlelight Dinner. Both produce two or three huge scapes with 8 to 10 flowers per scape. My wife loves Lacy Doily, but the blooms are very small & it just doesn't seem to produce many scapes or flowers ... at least here in Houston.
