Hemerocallis 'Towers of Eisencramer'
Daylily
Plant Type:
DAYLILY (HEMEROCALLIS)Hemerocallis 'Towers of Eisencramer' - Late July bloomer with gads of 4-inch wide open clear yellow trumpets atop 78-inch stems. Wow: 78 inches! Each stem may carry as many as 19 buds; with a fecundity of stems comes gads of flowers for a very extended period of time swaying in summer breezes above your head - look up! If you're a giant among us then look down! Plant it with 'Eli Murphy' for a super-extended middle-late to very late seasonal show. And if you have a zest for attempting new hybrids this plant is fertile with multiple seed pods available for the picking in the late season. (We're thinking about it... were it we had more time!)

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.
