Daylily - Spider Type

Plant Type:

DAYLILY (HEMEROCALLIS)

Hemerocallis '#05-1426 'Satin 'n Velvet' - This spider form is a beauty from breeder, Dr. Darrell Apps. The huge flowers recurve strongly with tips of some petals exhibiting a twist. The throat of the flower is a bright chartreuse-yellow, the yellow color extending along the central rib of each petal making a glorious large star. The petals in beautiful contrast are otherwise a dark red. Each outward-facing flower sets such that the lower part of the flower extends elegantly forward. This is a spectacular daylily, a rare one and a definite collector's plant.

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.
