Red in the morning, sailor’s take warning.” Fiery rose blooms have a raspberry eye and striking gold wire edge and bring a calming beauty to the garden. Large blooms are 5 1/2″ and stand strong on scapes around 28″ in our East Tennessee garden. A delight.

A late season bloomer, we typically begin to see the first of these fiery pink blooms around the end of June. If you live to our north, you’ll see them a bit later than we do. If you live to our south, you’ll get to see them a few weeks before us.
Sailor Sky is a semi-evergreen daylily. This means it can be grown in gardens across the nation.
The gorgeous color of Sailor Sky looks fantastic with light pink or pale orange in the garden. Try it with bright orange for a sizzling treat!

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.
