9″ bloom, 42″ tall, Early-Mid Season + rebloom, Semi-evergreen
Unique in the garden! Huge yellow blooms with a vivid red eyezone and markings are held high on scapes that are well over 3′ tall for us. Classified as a daylily of unusual form (UFO) ‘Lady Neva’ is a crispate daylily, which means her petals and/or sepals can appear twisted, pinched and/or quilled to add more interest to an already beautiful daylily. Very striking in the garden. Fragrant.
Have had these daylilies for years! Have moved them several times. I have finally found the best spot for them and they love it there!! They have multiplied very quickly in this new spot and this year (after the drought last year) I have dozens and dozens of tall beautiful scapes and blossoms about 10″ across. I had to stake them last year but this year the scapes are taller and stronger and are standing on their own. They are just beautiful!!
I have purchased lilies from Oakes for years and I can truly say that Lady Neva is one of the most beautiful lilies I have purchased. Highly recommended for your garden. Guglielmo
I have about forty different daylilies in my small yard but none can compare with the beauty of Lady Neva. The colors are so true to the picture. This is one that you can not wait for it to bloom. I would recommend this lily to everyone.
You can request a specific date in the Order Notes box during checkout, and we will ship your plants as close to the time you request as possible.
We ship February — October.
Or we will send at the proper time for planting:
Winter and Early Spring Orders:
We will send at the appropriate time for Spring planting in your area. See the chart below for approximate starting shipping dates by zone.
Late Spring and Summer Orders :
After shipping has started to your area, we will send as soon as possible, normally within one to two weeks.
PLEASE NOTE – We will do our best to ship as quickly as possible, but the plants are growing in the ground, not sitting on a shelf, so it takes some time to get them dug and ready to ship.

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!
