Man Catcher Daylily Features:
‘Man Catcher’ is always one of the most popular in our daylily display garden. Big, bright blooms are an electrifying blend of red-orange-yellow and are held on tall scapes. Man Catcher is a stunning daylily that grabs attention. If you like a calm, reserved garden or if you don’t like people asking you about your daylilies, this is not the daylily for you!
We don’t have a big enough vocabulary to describe how bright and beautiful these blooms are! Electric orange, these 6″ blooms grow on scapes close to 40″ here in our East Tennessee garden. YOU WILL NOT OVERLOOK THIS DAYLILY IN THE GARDEN!!
A midseason daylily, Man Catcher first makes an appearance here in zone 7 in early June. If you are to the north of us, you’ll likely see it a couple of weeks after we do. If you are to our south, you’ll probably see it a few weeks before us.
A dormant variety, Man Catcher is best grown in gardens that get a sustained cold period in the winter.
This fiery beauty is a knockout on it’s own but also looks phenomenal with hot pink, bright yellow or gold or lavender. Pair it with a darker toned daylily for an effect that will leave you reeling.

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, you get to choose what you’d like at checkout.

When I saw that Oakes was offering “Mancatcher” again this year, I had to post this review. This daylily is not a solid orange: it is orange, red, and yellow. All-around stunning! In my front yard garden (with at least 50 daylilies) this one gets the most compliments. My plant is 5 years old, and every year it pumps out the booms on tall scapes, over a very long blooming period. Highly recommended!

After reading the review from the lady from Sinking Springs, PA, I decided to see what all the fuss was about with this daylily. I ordered 6 and I’m so glad I did! It is everything she said. Mine just starting growing this week and they are outstanding! I too have many orange daylilies and they are gorgeous, but I love the bright color of this reddish-orange gem. One of my plants opened 3 buds today and my mouth dropped open. Gorgeous! If you like brash & bold in your garden color, you’ve got to try this one. I’m big into orange & gold and this beauty fits right in! (I also have Lady Lucille and love it!) Thanks Sinking Springs for the excellent review. I love Man Catcher as much as you do.

This one is so tall and gorgeous, it’s ridiculous! I have it planted with Caribbean Frank League and what a stunning display the two make, a fiery orange background to a beautiful black Daylily. This one just screams at you. It’s amazing!

Hold on to your hat! This one is really it and I am back for 3 more. I had lost track the names of all the daylilies I had planted the year before, but I dug down to find the name of THIS one so I could get more. It is the brightest flower of ANY kind in my 2014 garden, held high on strong scapes with a multitude of buds. I only like brights (nothing wimpy or pale) and this was like a blazing beacon from 100 feet away. I have dozens of daylilies and many other oranges; but am going to “lift and gift” some of the others to make room for more Man Catchers. It pairs well with Lady Lucille (which is shorter and later) for weeks of firey orange blaze that you can’t look away from!
