This daylily (genus Hemerocallis), showcases a stunning double bloom variety. Here’s a detailed breakdown:

🌸 Flower

• Color: Soft peach with slight pinkish and yellow tones.

• Structure: This is a double-flowered daylily, meaning it has extra petals or petal-like structures, giving it a ruffled, full appearance.

• Petals: Broad, rounded with gently ruffled edges, layered to form a lush and ornamental bloom.

• Size: Typically around 4–6 inches across, but this can vary by cultivar.

🌿 Stamen and Stems

• Stamens: Not clearly visible in this variety due to the dense petal formation. Normally, daylilies have six stamens with prominent anthers carrying yellow pollen.

• Stems: Green, upright, and sturdy, emerging from a clump of grass-like leaves. Each scape (flower stalk) can hold several buds.

• Leaves: Long, arching, and sword-shaped, forming a dense, green base.

🌍 Habitat

• Native Region: Originally native to Asia (especially China, Korea, and Japan).

• Cultivation: Widely cultivated in gardens across the world for their hardiness and vibrant colors.

• Growing Conditions:

  • Prefers full sun but tolerates partial shade.

  • Thrives in well-draining soil.

  • Low-maintenance and drought-tolerant once established.

🌱 Uses

• Ornamental: Extremely popular in landscaping for borders, beds, and mass plantings due to their vibrant, long-lasting blooms and adaptability.

• Erosion Control: The dense root systems help in controlling soil erosion.

• Edible Parts: In some cultures, daylily buds and flowers are used in cooking, especially in Chinese cuisine (e.g., in "mu shu" dishes), but not all varieties are edible, so caution is advised.

• Medicinal (Traditional): Used historically in Chinese medicine for mild diuretic and sedative effects.
