Miss Tinkerbell is planted in 2 different locations in my yard. In 100% shade with moist soil the flowers are a soft pink. In a mostly sunny spot the flowers are a peachy salmon color. a long blooming season makes this one of my favorites!
This is not the best flower color of its size and color rang. Roses with Peaches has a better color pallet, but Miss Tinkerbell started blooming in early mid-season and just kept thrown new flower spikes. It is now September 20th and the last flower just died. I would not be surprised to see it throw more flower spikes. It is a low growing plant with short flower spike that reach just above the leaves making it a great border plant. My plant is one year old, and I live in Tennessee. My color is not as vivid as the pictures here, but I would buy it again for the blooming habit. Too much nitrogen inhibit blooming. It is best to use organic fertilizers like worm casings.
My daughter got this little lady as a door prize last year. She was thrilled with the name. The colors are pretty and delicate. They bloomed late May and have a lot of buds. My only complaint about this lily is none of the blooms opened wide at all and it is hard to get a good feel for her color. It looks like a peachy pink. I hope they open better next year.
In my zone 6a/ W. PA garden she is doing quite well for her first season ( planted her fall of 2015, now its mid July 2016). She’s a short little thing, great for the front of a border and in my garden, not as dark as the picture; more peachy than deep pink. But still beautiful with lots buds to come. Definitely a winner. I think this was a freebie from Oakes, and I thank them sincerely I look forward to may years of visual and heartfelt pleasure from her. Can’t go wrong with this beauty.
Miss Tinkerbell is a great little daylily for the front border. Beautiful peachy~pink blooms and lots of them. Less than two months in my garden and they are creating a beautiful display to admire. She may be little, but a bit of a showoff ! I love it!
A favorite. Good substance, very non-fading, produces tons of flowers, gorgeous color. Good for front as it is short. Fast increaser, tolerates some dryness but best if watered well. Rebloomed almost constantly when I lived in San Clemente, CA. Tolerates some shade. Very lovely. Highly recommended.
Very nice little daylily. Looks like the picture in my garden. I have it edging a curve in a flower bed and it’s just right for the spot. I received a large clump as a bonus plant last summer. Although they didn’t bloom last year, this year they’re doing great. Nice pop of color from a distance. Cute and detailed up close.
Mine is mostly peach and the eye is very rosy and distinct. Substantial and very pretty for the front of a garden where color is needed. It is ruffled and veined. Although not pink this year in IL, it is still a very sweet lily. I’ve found some lilies have different colors due to weather during a certain year.
I love this little one. You said she was a peachy pink and that is just what I got. Not quit as dark as the pictuer though. It grew and bloomed wonderfully for me.
I too was disappointed in this little day lily. The color here in OR is mostly orange. I wonder if I fertilized with fertilizer/moss killer? maybe change the color?
Pretty flowers, bloomed within a few weeks of planting. But NOT the color pictured (much peachier), and not what I was looking for. I’d be a lot happier if I’d known what I was getting.
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!

I received this free with my order. The foliage came up beautifully, but it never bloomed. I hope that next season it makes up for it!

This daylily is NOT pink at all! It’s peachy orange with a darker orange eyezone. Pretty enough if that’s what you’re looking for….
