Hemerocallis (Daylily)
×
Color Name: Star of the North
A uniquely shaped daylily that is easily recognizable in a crowd. Triangular, pale yellow petals have a large wine purple eye and a razor thin wine purple edge. Star of the North has an improved flower form, a higher bud count, good branching, reblooming, and a slightly earlier bloom season compared to its predecessor.
Growing Tips: Daylilies can survive many harsh conditions that other plants cannot including: polluted city environments, slopes, poor and dry soils, near pavement that is salted in winter, and under Black Walnut trees (not affected by juglone). Daylilies are some of the easiest perennials to grow and are a good choice for any gardener, from the beginner to the professional. These are tough, adaptable plants that will grow in any soil, from normal to slightly wet to dry. Older varieties are able to bloom if planted in partial shade, but most of the newer introductions need full sun for best performance. Likewise, older varieties tend to spread more rapidly than the newer hybrids. Plants should be deadheaded for cosmetic purposes, but in most cases this will not extend the bloom time.
