Description

This Daylily has tiny, 2" wide, yellow flowers that bloom in spring and summer. Grassy looking foliage is narrow and slender, reaching 12"- 16" tall. Thin stalks give an airy, fairy-like quality. Flowers spikes are 2' tall. This Daylily tolerates heat and cold. It looks better with regular watering and can be planted in full or part sun. Some gardeners eat the flowers!

Water Saving Tip:

Fix leaking sprinklers, valves, and pipes.

One broken spray sprinkler can waste 10 gallons per minute - or 100 gallons in a typical 10 minute watering cycle.
