Sunshine and Blooms
CAREFREE & COLORFUL STELLA D’ORO DAYLIILIES
The quintessential repeat bloomer, daylilies, are one of the easiest and most maintenance-free flowers to grow in the garden. Daylilies are available in an array of colors. The most recognizable color is yellow and the Stella d’ Oro is our top pick. Translated as ‘star of gold’, these flowers are a star indeed. You’ll love their fragrant, ruffled flowers that bloom every day late spring through summer. The showy, trumpet-shaped blooms boast deep golden yellow flowers that measure about 2 ½ inches across. Each plant stands about 18-24 inches high with strappy, green foliage.
This spring and summer bloomer thrives in the heat and sunshine. Plant in full-sun and will drained soil. Stella is Ideal in small space gardens, in containers on patios or planted together in large numbers for a carefree and colorful ground cover. It will boast blooms May through July attracting hummingbirds and butterflies. We love pairing this garden classic with Crepe Myrtles, Lantana, and Homestead Purple Verbena.
TIP: Throughout the blooming cycle, remove the spent flower stems to tidy up the plant.
