Oakville Farm Daylily Blog

Just living is not enough... one must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower.  ~Hans Christian Andersen

Daylilies make a great "little flower".  As I was perusing them this morning, I was in Awww of the bright color on display.  The skies are overcast and that seems to bring a vibrance of color.  The smaller purple daylily, Barbary Corsair to the larger orange daylily, Pat Mercer, the hues are so strong.


Here are more "bloomers" ...


Imperial Lemon

Daylily Imperial Lemon presents a lemon yellow self with a green throat.  It stands over three feet tall and has a bloom that is near seven inches in diameter.  It is an early mid season bloomer that reblooms with adequate watering during the season.  Blooms are thick and are high above on a strong scape (stem).  In the overcast skies or bright sun, Imperial Lemon is a very attractive daylily.


Pilot Light

Daylily Pilot Light is a diamond dusted lavender pink with a lemon throat.  It is an early midseason bloomer that stands about two and half feet tall presenting a six inch bloom.  The  hue of the pink makes this a very soft sight to the eyes.


Hope this will peak your interest in daylilies and the large number of cultivars that are available.  Check out the Oakville Farm website to find the daylily just for you.  


Hope you have a good day and until next time, Happy Gardening.
