- Description
The features of this striking daylily (Hemerocallis) with a fiery blend of deep red and golden orange hues.
Here's a detailed description of this stunning plant:
🌼 Flower Characteristics:
The flower displays a bold, bicolor palette: rich red petals with fiery orange-gold throats and central streaks that add dramatic contrast.
The tepals (petal-like segments) are long, slender, and slightly recurved at the edges, giving the flower an energetic and open form.
Six stamens with golden-yellow anthers extend from the throat, paired with a prominent pistil.
The petals show pollen specks, a common sight when flowers are in peak bloom and pollinator activity is high.
🌿 Foliage:
Strappy green leaves are visible, arching gracefully in a fountain-like shape.
These leaves form dense clumps that provide a lush green base for the brilliant blooms above.
🌱 Growth Habit & Culture:
Height: Typically ranges from 24 to 36 inches tall.
Blooming Season: Mid-to-late summer, with individual blooms lasting just one day, but numerous buds ensure an extended display.
Sun Requirements: Prefers full sun for best flowering but can tolerate partial shade.
Soil: Adapts to a variety of soils but thrives in well-drained, fertile ground.
Water Needs: Moderate; drought-tolerant once established but benefits from consistent moisture.
🌟 Uses in the Landscape:
Perfect for border gardens, cottage-style beds, or mass plantings.
Especially valued for their reliability, low maintenance, and deer resistance.
Also attracts pollinators like bees and butterflies, making them excellent in wildlife gardens.
This daylily's blazing coloration makes it a standout in any summer garden! 🔥
