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.
ABOUT US: Oakes Daylilies is a family-owned daylily farm that’s been in business for three generations. Our daylilies grow in home gardens, city parks and botanical gardens across the nation– including Hawaii and Canada. We are known in the industry as Daylily Experts and grow over 1000 varieties of daylilies on nearly 70 acres in East Tennessee. But over 50 years ago, we started just like you—with one daylily in a home garden.
Montrose, PA –
Prolific bloomer, sweet bloom form, color as pictured. I only wish it was the eighteen inches described as I planted it in front of the border and today it has 19 blooms at 31″ and the little blooms look out of proportion and sort of silly way up there.

I have had this daylily in my yard for 9 years. It blooms the beautiful orchid color self with a beautiful eyezone and green throat. It is a very prolific bloomer with about 30 scapes and 500+ buds. It is completely hardy and I rate it 10+.

The color of this daylily is simply spectacular. Such a great combination of purple and lavender. Could rate it a ’10’ if it just had more blooms. It is, along with the rest of the Siloam series, a most satisfying addition.

Elma, WA –
I am wondering if mine was mismarked. It looked nothing like the picture. The purple was a pale pink with a lighter throat. I was so excited for this one too!!!

If you are looking for vivid colors look no farther than Siloam Merle Kent. The orchid/purple color combo is quite striking. The lovely ruffling adds to its appeal.
