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.

My plant is now 3 years old, and this summer it really came into it’s own. I nice compact plant, with scores of blooms that just kept coming. One of the longest blooming daylilies in my collection, and I am nearing hoarder status at this point. I would rank it with ‘Red Volunteer’ as one of the showiest daylilies you can plant.

What is your hardiness zone? Not Sure
A beautiful shade of red! Bloomed late June in AL and is still going… Nice size to put in front of my yellow Siloam Space Age. Great contrast; shows up much better with yellows. I sent photos of this crimson beauty to UA fans I know…Roll Tide!

Beautiful deep dark-red in part shade location. My plant is one year old and the blooms are held on short stems and does not rise above foliage. Nice daylily.

What a show-topper, just when you’er getting used to seeing daylilies blooming everywhere! I can’t stop taking pictures of mine! The catalog doesn’t do it full justice – it is so much richer in color plus soft and velvety to the touch. Only one word of advice – grab your camera and run out to it if you hear thunder! This flower hates rain and bleaches out when it gets wet.

It is now the middle of July in our zone 6.5 garden and, while most of our daylilies have already had their time in the spotlight, Crimson Shadows is now in full, glorious bloom, putting on a most welcome show. Our Crimson Shadows has a rich, deep, velvety color that is darker than the picture, and more beautiful. I find myself exclaiming ‘Wow!’ each time I look over at it. Thanks, Oakes, for such a special daylily.

Woodruff, SC –
A beautiful shade of red. Lots of large flowers. The plant makes nice clumps. My only complaint is that it does not re-bloom. But overall, a terrific daylily.

The velvet on this lily makes you stop to touch each time, like passing a beautiful pet. Mine is also darker and shimmers, almost a Victorian red. Looks especially good with whites or yellows because it is short and dark, it needs the contrast to showcase.

Darker in my garden – a true crimson – not at all rosy as in the picture. First bloom in year 3 – had a bad compost year followed by a “cat invasion” two winters ago. Its really lovely, but I need to move it away from the lavendars and pinks. I’ll be ordering more.

I received this daylily as a gift for attending the Daylily Festival last year (2006). What a pleasant surprise! I plan on buying more of these beauties this fall.
