  • Description

  • Notes

Daylilies are one of the most common and most color-varied groups of flowers in our gardens. Typically, daylilies have open, trumpet shaped flowers, some single petaled, some double, ruffled or not, single or multi-colored. Generally they bloom in early summer, though some rebloom throughout the summer months. Foliage is grass-like, green, and clump-forming; fall color is yellow. They spread at the crown and by stolons. Use at the front of shrub or foundation borders, in perennial gardens, or along paths. They are also great for those areas that get little care, such as the sides of garages, along the alley or driveway. There are so many, we have only included a few our favorites, but they are all wonderful.
