I never knew how much I would love this one and I’m SO glad I ordered it 4 years ago when I did. I’ve had as many as 15 blooms at one time and the scapes are often over 3 ft tall. The blooms are consistently well formed and absolutely gorgeous, sometimes almost white looking and other times more peach/pink. I absolutely love these blooms and even though I have tended to go for more doubles or larger singles, this is one that thrills me! It blooms long and large!!

This daylily puts up so many blooms at one time. Then it comes back later and does it again. Not many daylilies do that in this hot and humid weather in North Florida.

I put this daylily in the ground last year after blooming season was was over. This year it has been one of the best bloomers in my garden. I am obsessed with this daylily and will order more. It has the sweetest blooms, just perfect and white with a hint of blush. Love love love this one.

One of the earliest to bloom in my garden, prolific lovely pale peachy pink blooms and lightly fragrant. I was surprised to see it classified as reblooming because I do not get any rebloom here in Northern Illinois.

I bought a Lullaby Baby when I was pregnant with my daughter 25 years ago. It is still growing strong and has been split and shared many times.

This is my second year for this plant and I have it grouped with other pastel—like daylilies. This year, Lullaby Baby bloomed profusely and, though a smaller bloom than most of my other flowers, it presented a nice soft color to the garden. I had some rebloom this year and hope to have more in future seasons.

This adorable Daylily was one of my freebies so I was extremely happy with how cute it is. I have since split it up so I can see it different places in the garden. It’s so ruffled friends are always surprised when I tell them it’s a Daylily. It’s light color blends with everything…just barely blushing.

Such a beauty wherever it is planted in sun or shade. Right now it is mostly shade and still sends up beautiful (to see and to smell) flower stalks. I have it planted in front of hostas and it is well deserving of its special spot. Even though it is a light color it is an eye catcher. zone 3 Wisconsin

I live in Maryland and this is the second summer for this daylily in my yard. It started blooming June 14 and now, on July 27 it still has a few blooms to go. Healthy and solid clumps, although quite a bit taller than advertised. One thing I like is the blooms are still beautiful in the evening when we are out on the patio.

Sweet blushing baby, touched by fairy dust. I adore this special daylily. One of the very first I bought for my, now, over one-hundred varieties. I love the way the sun brings out the sparkle and glow of this beauty. One of my very favorites in my collection.

I’ve had these in my yard for 5 years, and they’ve grown like crazy every year. They’ve filled out to form nice large clumps. They are supposed to be a shorter daylily, but mine are more like 2-3 feet tall! And they bloom for so long! This year they started blooming in the first week of July and were still putting out flowers in August.

This daylily just glows with its delicate light pink blooms, drawing the eye into the garden. Set against the bolder colors of Frankly Scarlets, Wayside Royale, and Puple d’Oro, it holds its own. Though planted just last year and it’s already given a ton of blooms.

My sister gave me a starter piece and when I saw that first little bloom I was in love. No, it’s not a showy color and I’ll admit it’s not one I would have bought. But, when you see it in person….I don’t know…it’s just beautiful and perfect….I just want to keep staring at it. I then bought two more plants so I could have three in front of my Bella Lagosi’s (deep purple with green throat). They bloom earlier but are still blooming when my Bella’s start.

I get few blooms each year. It is in a mixed planting with Siloam Double Classic, which performs well and even rebloomed for me this year, so I know it is not a location or nutritional deficiency.

Lullaby Baby is a winner in every aspect. The delicate color is so beautifully soothing but don’t be fooled – this plant is tough – it survives our Wisconsin winters every year and just gets better and better. I’ve had the pleasure of Lullaby Baby in our garden for over five years and have divided it into several plants which have then thrived and provided more and more pleasure. This Baby matures into lovely plants just like the photos. You can’t possibly have a garden without it!!

I bought this as well as 4 other semi evergreen and dormant daylily varieties last fall. I planted them all in the same day in late september. All except the lullaby babies bloomed thefollowing summer. I will wait another year and see what happens. For now I am giving this only one star because I am comparing to the others that I am very pleased with. Will update next year if thing change.

This is starting my second year with Lullaby Baby and the first year for it to bloom. It is growing next to ‘Shishedo’ and both have just started to bloom at the same time. Oh my, how pretty these two are together. I could seem them intermingled, the pale pink of Lullaby Baby compliments the pink of ‘Shishedo’ so well. In my garden, both plants have scapes and fans close to the same size with this one’s flowers slightly smaller. Both have thick, strong scapes with lots of buds. I plan to expand the number of this one and invest in some more near whites!

My favorite daylily of all in my garden and always the earliest. Lullaby Baby is in full bloom the first week in March here in the Tampa Bay area. My blooms are 4 to 5 inches wide and a beautiful pale peach color. And, best of all, I can expect a vigorous rebloom.

What a beautiful day-lily this is. The color is so pure and creamy. Lots and lots of blooms the first year. This was sent to me as my bonus plant and I am so glad it was. I love pastel colors and this is definitely a nice one. And it also has a nice light fragrance. What more could you ask for?

A perfect little darling!!! Always loaded with tons of blooms, perfect ruffled shape with wondrous sparkle and shine!!! Always opens up perfectly, and here they are a pale yummy cream! I have had 2 of these for over 6 years and they are perfect each and every year, getting more and more flowers and it is just perfect in every way!! And even though the flowers are smallish, they are easy to deadhead unlike other smaller ones I have had.

Even in part shade, even up north here in Massachusetts, they are loaded with buds and blooming very big and lush. They are not “near white”, they are a creamy ,medium buff, great for a little tonal variation in a “white garden”.

Columbus, WI –
Very cute! This was my bonus plant last year, and is blooming very nicely in ’09. PERFECT flower form! The first couple blooms were more cream, but now definitely a blush peach/pink over cream. Very pretty. Most impressed with how each flower has this perfect form, slightly ruffled, open wide, but not too much so you don’t see each petal. And they hold this form throughout the day. Also, it does sparkle in the sun! Enjoy!

This was slow to establish and is prone to petal damage which affects the coloring. When it is doing well, it is a soft sweet pink/lavender with lots of yellow eye.

The very first daylilies to bloom in my garden each year – right at the end of spring. And it just keeps getting better as summer takes over. Every year it impresses me with more and more blooms! I received this daylily free at Oakes daylily festival, but it has become one of my all time favorites.

Planted in mid-June last year, we are enjoying the first bloom now. Beautiful plants, lots of flowers! My only negative comment is that the color is more peach than pink in our soil – possibly due to the GA red clay?? It’s a pretty color, just not what I expected.

The ruffled form of this gorgeous daylily is its best trait. It is very dainty. My only criticism is the color. It is white in Kentucky not pink. But it is still very lovely.

I planted these in November and they are blooming already in February. They are very pretty. A little off white in color. I wish they had more pink blush in them.
