Daylilies can be used in any ornamental border, both solitary and in groups. The flowers of the daylily are undoubtedly among the tastiest edible flowers. They taste fresh-sweet and have a surprisingly peppery aftertaste. By the way, this only applies to the single flowers!
Hemerocallis means beautiful for one day. The individual flowers of this plant actually bloom for only 24 hours. This is not a drawback at all, as the plant produces an abundant number of flowers during its blooming period.
The color palette of the Hemerocallis varies from yellow, pink, purple, white, dark red to orange. The daylily requires little maintenance and therefore fits perfectly in a low-maintenance garden.
Remove faded flowers during blooming (we call this deadheading) and prune yellowing leaves.
Propagate by dividing in March/May.
Perennials stimulate the senses with their fragrance, improve the climate, require little maintenance, and attract bees and butterflies.
