WHAT DAYLILIES CAN I GROW: Most of you can grow any of the daylilies we sell. If you live in an area with a sustained cold period like we do in East Tennessee, you can grow all the varieties. However, If you live in an area that doesn’t get freezing weather in the winter (like zones 9 and 10), dormant varieties won’t work for you; you’ll need to choose evergreen or semi-evergreen varieties.
BIG PLANTS! When it comes to daylily plants, bigger is better! All of the plants we ship will be three fans or larger — two or three times (or more) what you might receive from other companies. Larger plants get established faster and bloom more quickly!
FARM-FRESH TO YOU! All of your plants will be freshly dug when you order. The leaves are trimmed and the plants are washed and air-dried. Your daylilies will be out of the ground less than 48 hours before they’re headed your way.
BONUS DAYLILIES: We send free daylilies (we call them “bonus” daylilies) with every order. These daylilies are equal to about 20% of your order and are the same huge, healthy plants we sell. Just leave the decision up to us and we’ll pick something you’re sure to love!
ABOUT US: Oakes Daylilies is a family-owned daylily farm that’s been in business for three generations. Our daylilies grow in home gardens, city parks and botanical gardens across the nation– including Hawaii and Canada. We are known in the industry as Daylily Experts and grow over 1000 varieties of daylilies on nearly 70 acres in East Tennessee. But over 50 years ago, we started just like you—with one daylily in a home garden.

I ordered more of these All American daylillies after seeing just how gorgeous the first ones I planted in my garden. And while I’ve ordered many from Oakes, and they’re all beautiful, these are my very favorite!

I absolutely love this daylily – I’m in zone 6B in Colorado. This was my first order from Oakes Daylilies. I received this order Spring 2021. I don’t remember how many blooms to be exact the first year, but this season it looks like I will end up with 20 blooms once they have all bloomed. The picture was taken this morning after a rain. The red in my opinion is a true very clear red and for me it doesn’t fade. It does receive some morning shade from the eave of the front of the house, but other than that it gets full sun. We have clay soil, but we do amend it. Oakes is the best, and I look forward to ordering from Oakes for many more years.

Purchased in 2020. First blooms this year. The blooms were as large as advertised and very vibrant red and yellow colors. They are beautiful!

Can’t miss this one!
This one is everything the description says – no hype here!! I bought this for a large bed and split all 4 bunches into 21 small plants. This is the third year and these are so full, I weeded only once in late July and only pulled out 10 or so weeds. The color red is vibrant and absolutely does NOT fade in the hot midwest afternoon sun. Very impressive considering it is a western exposure in full sun. Height is true and the stems are very strong holding up in some very severe storms – both hard rain and wind. They are planted in floodplain and the strength of the stems hod up to periodic flooding. These plants have a hard life where they are planted and just thrive. This lily makes a beautiful display in an incredibly short time.
