This may not be the whitest of the near whites, but it is certainly the one that gets the most “oohs” and “aahs” in our garden. Huge blooms with an open form and a yellow throat.
This day lily was planted at the side of a 6a dry clay slope where I thought I would enjoy it’s prominence. Unfortunately, it has struggled, causing me to move it to an area where it will receive my water and give it some Oakes fertilizer this fall for a boost.
Jolly White Giant appears relatively early in my daylily garden and is a gorgeous one to start, particularly with the early pinks around it. It is big but not super tall, so any color can work well with it, but it will be the one to stand out. The flower is big, and I have been impressed with the length of time that it continues to bloom. We are in an area where reblooming never happens except with Stella D’oro , but the length of time that Jolly White continues to bloom makes it similar to reblooming. A great plant for a great price. Best White I have.
It took awhile for this one to show itself but when it did it really made a splash. It was wolrth the two year wait. It was loaded wikth blossom which stayed on fro a lolng time.
This is the most impressive of the whites that I have seen so far. I have several varieties of whites in my 3 year old “white” daylily garden. This one stands out. It is huge. When it first blooms and I walk by it, I just have to say, “Wow!”
Although it is really a light creamy yellow, it has been a real beauty! I have been impressed with the volume of bloom, and the blooms truly are huge. It looks gorgeous with purple tones too. I highly recommend this one!

It’s pretty simple: 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, dormant varieties won’t work for you; you need to choose evergreen or semi-evergreen varieties.
We normally include bonus plants equal to about 20% of your order. And these aren’t “leftover” plants, or “whatever we’ve got lying around.” These are the same huge, healthy plants we sell. Just leave the decision up to us— we’ll pick something we know you’ll love!
