Valued for its vigor and exceptional adaptability, Hemerocallis fulva produces six-petaled, trumpet-shaped, tawny-orange blossoms atop tall, leafless stalks. Rising from a mound of arching, strap-shaped, light green leaves, each flower, up to 3-4 in. wide (7-10 cm), typically lasts no more than 24 hours (thus the common name 'Daylily'), opening up in the morning and withering during the forthcoming night, possibly replaced by another one on the same scape (flower stalk) the next day. A great naturalizer, this Daylily multiplies happily! Blooming from mid to late summer, this clump-forming perennial grows up to 36 in. tall (90 cm) and spreads slowly via rhizomes to 30 in. (75 cm)
