Spotted Fever Daylily Features:

‘Spotted Fever’ is one of our own daylily introductions. Highly unusually patterned blooms make this daylily a unique variety.  Speckled lavender-rose double blooms are always different from each other. The coloration varies from bloom to bloom and no two are ever alike! If you like unique daylilies that are also spectacularly beautiful, Spotted Fever is the daylily for you. A light fragrance makes this beauty even more appealing.

Double blooms are around 3 3/4″ on scapes about 22″ tall in our East Tennessee garden. Due to its size, Spotted Fever is perfectly at home when planted in the garden bed or in a container.

A mid season daylily, we generally begin to see these gorgeous double blooms around the middle of June. If you are to our north, you’ll likely see it a few weeks after us. If you are to our south, you’ll see it a bit before us.

A semi-evergreen daylily, Spotted Fever can be grown in gardens across the country.

Thanks to its appealing color blend, Spotted Fever tends to bring a bit of peaceful calm to a bold, colorful garden. Whimsical patterned blooms interject some sizzle to ensure its calming presence doesn’t veer towards snooze-ville.  Looks fantastic with any color in the garden but is especially eye-catching when paired with orange, gold or darker toned daylilies.

HOW TO GROW DAYLILIES: Daylilies are very easy-to-grow. They like a lot of sun and they like a lot of water. For more information on how to care for daylilies, click here.
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 and are the same huge, healthy plants we sell. Just leave the decision up to us and we’ll pick something you’re sure to love!

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.

    Mine looks exactly as the catalog describes. Sweet small (ish) doubles that remind me of a puffy ribbon bow. This was the first summer and expect it to settle in and amp up the flowers more next year. I do bring inside a flower every day because it’s nice to see the unusual markings up close.

  3. Unique and Pretty Colorful Combinaton!

    Being partial to doubles anyway, I find this one striking and eye-catching. The pastel, cool colors blend well in the daylily garden. With it’s beautiful double petals with and frilled edging, this one looks much more expensive than it is. A favorite all-around!

    I am becoming more and more a fan of the doubles but I was a little leery of the color combination on Spotted Fever. Planted it the first week of April 2021 and had a bloom on 1 June 2021. That’s right sports fans a bloom two months after planting and the bloom was not puny, it was huge for a double. The multicolor shades and ruffles in the bloom will stop you in your tracks. The only negative I have is the name, rename it PLEASE. Who names a flower this gorgeous Spotted Fever, anyway.

    I received this product too late in summer 2016 for bloom. Plant is very robust, this year it has lots of fans and flower spikes, The first bloom opened today 6/6/2017. The flower looks exactly as its picture and plant size is spot on, Was too early this morning to discern fragrance. If that is present, we will take the rating up a star! I live in Hartford KY, and this is the second of my daylilies to begin bloom – after Stella d’oro. This one is very pretty. Love all my Oakes Daylilies

    I received Spotted Fever in 2012. I had enough fans to plant in 3 different areas. They all bloomed and I was so happy . They were more tan than mauve, but maybe this summer they will be mature and have more pink color. Nice size blooms and they bloomed for about 2 weeks. I have been getting enough nerve to spend the money on just one daylily, but I am happy I did.

    I live about 45 minutes from the Wisconsin border, and have to say I was a little leery about spending so much for a daylily. I purchased in March of 2009 and was a little disappointed as it only had one bloom. However, this year (2010), it’s fantastic. I even separated it last fall and put it around the garden to see where it would do best. It’s doing great everywhere. Today is June 28, I have two blooms in full sun with loads of buds and in the other areas of the garden that don’t get full sun, there are plants with loads of buds. Am extremely happy. It looks exactly like the photo, maybe even a little better.
