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.

Ida Miles is just now in full bloom in our zone 6.5 Tennessee garden. The very large yellow bloom is so bright and creamy that it reminds you of a day with sunshine in a clear blue sky. Makes me happy to see it.

If ever there was a daylily with “creamy” in its description, Ida Miles is the one! Coupled with a fragrance that delights all, including my Australian Blue Heeler dog, the rural letter carrier, UPS delivery guy, neighbors, family and friends, etc., this is a visual treat, too. Not ostentatious, Ida Miles exudes quiet class and presence. 2006 was her first year and I am most eager to enjoy 2007 and all the years to come!

‘Ida Miles’ has been a prolific extended bloomer for me, building buds and blooming for almost 5 weeks now. It was slow to start in the spring, but really made up for it later in the summer.
