Hemerocallis

Hemerocallis ‘Daring Deception’

Hemerocallis (daylily) have arching narrow leaves and lily-like flowers.  They are tough plants and reasonably trouble free.  A couple of  favorites are ‘Stella D’Oro’, a dwarf golden yellow with a longer bloom period than most, and ‘Bitsy’, a repeat bloomer with bright yellow flowers on tall, dark stems about eighteen inches tall. Many flower colors are available including cream, orange, yellow, red, pink and raspberry as well as many bicolors.  Plant in sun or partial shade and provide regular water.
