Chose this for the color and rebloom. 6 plants bought in early 2020. Did so-so in 2021. In 2022, used Oakes fertilizer as directed, some plants don’t have a lot of growth, but all 6 have some flowers – I am thrilled. In zone 6a. One of my favorite daylillies for height, size, and color (as pictured).
It was the only daylily I could buy at a nursery in Largo Florida last summer, was potted with foliage but no scapes left then. It started blooming on March and continued through April. It has much larger blooms and foliage than my Stella De Oro, which just started blooming today (May 31). I guess I will find out about well it reblooms later this year.
I’ve had 3 of these plants for 5 years, and I have to say they have grown into vigorous clumps with extremely attractive blue-green leaves. They bloom pretty vigorously, too. But I don’t find the lighter color on the outer petals to be an attractive feature. I’ve moved them to a spot where they won’t get as much sun in the hopes that the shade will give them a somewhat prettier color for me. But I would keep them for the foliage not matter what the flowers look like.
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.

We will send as soon as possible, up until it is too late to plant in your area. Orders placed after that time will ship the following spring. See the chart below for last shipping date by zone.

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!

After the year we’ve all had, we’re trying to wring whatever joy we can find out of every day— even Tax Day*. So we put our thinking caps on and thought, “What is silly and fun and makes everyone happy?”.
That’s when it hit us: stickers! To make your day brighter, we are offering 13 stickers free with every order today through April 19!!!
Stick ’em on your water bottle, your cooler, your laptop (even your wheelbarrow!) or wherever else you could use a bit of cheery color.
*We know that Tax Day has officially been moved to May 17. Since today is traditionally Tax Day, though, we’re going for it.

In 30115, first bloom on 6/7. A deep purple. Beautiful. Last year the color was much less intense, appeared almost faded. Very pleased this year.
