Daylily

Plant Type:

DAYLILY (HEMEROCALLIS)

Hemerocallis multiflorus - This is a species that is not frequently offered in commerce. Flowers of yellow-gold with a subtle orange suffusion occur in great numbers on wiry stems over grassy foliage for an extended period. "Multiflorus" speaks to its propensity for many blooms. There is a simple and lovely charm present in all the daylily species that is often lost in complicated breeding schemes. H. multiflorus  is very clean looking, grows slow to moderately with long bloom on scapes to 4 feet or a bit more in height fills the garden with a special charm from July to September. Kinda run-on but you get the point(s!) USDA zones 4 to 9. Be sure to check out the x multiflorus offering.

From Austin S. (OH) 11.4.2015: I recieved my plants today and must say they are in fantastic shape, packaged perfectly with an obvious personal touch. You have my business as long as I have room in our garden or purchase a bigger house. I am excited about all of them and have given the hemerocalis a prime spot in the front of one of our beds so neighbors will be sure to notice it right away. Count me as one of your biggest fans, can't wait for next spring!

Genus Overview: Hemerocallis

Common Name: Daylily

The well-known daylily. We have become increasingly taken with the late and very late bloomers. Those glorious daylily trumpets add such rich and contrasting texture to mops and strands of goldenrods, Joe-pye weeds and late season daisy flowers that occur in abundance at this time; they are splendid with the broad flattened domes of ironweeds, the spikes of Persicaria amplexicaulis ‘Firetail’ plus the seeds and berries that so opulently populate the landscape in the late season. We are offering a handful of mid-season bloomers. Of course, most of the breeding has centered about these and for this reason many of these cultivars are fancier. But we find there is elegance in the simpler flower form and gentler colors, often soft pastels, in the later selections. Most of the late bloomers but not all have originated with Olallie Daylily Gardens in South Newfane, VT. All cultivars are hardy in USDA zones 3 to 9 unless otherwise marked. All of the following are sent as bareroot divisions of our plants.
