Saturday ....

Daylilies ... what "beautiful bloomers". Which daylilies are blooming in your yard today?

We have many many. Here are a few more.

Hemerocallis Susan Whitfield

A yellow peach blend with a green throat makes this a soft pretty daylily. It grows to about 2 1/2' tall and it's bloom size is almost 6". Here at Oakville Farm we sell this daylily for $13.00.


Hemerocallis Mokan Butterfly

This daylily presents near white with lavender halo and green throat. The term halo refers to an eye that is very light, relatively narrow or indistinct. It grows to about 3' tall and has a 5" bloom. It would make a good daylily in the background of your flower bed, since it would rise above shorter plants in the foreground. We sell Mokan Butterfly for $9.00.

Temperature's arisin' ....

Hello all daylily fans. LOL

Weather has been gorgeous here at Oakville Farm. A great day for daylilies. As posted last night, we had a nice shower which gave our daylilies the extra push for more buds to open today. And speaking of which, I could not pick out a "favorite" daylily to show this evening. Here are a few more ......

Hemerocallis Doug Mayfield

Doug Mayfield daylily is short, about 16" tall, has a small bloom, about 3.5" and is an early midseason bloomer. It is a rose pink blend with dark pink eyezone and green throat. It is said that the Doug Mayfield daylily is fragrant. We sell this daylily for $6.00.

Hemerocallis Mary Todd

This buff self, 2 1/2' tall , large 5" bloom is a real show stopper in the garden/yard. The color buff refers to a light yellow/brown to a moderate orange-yellow color. Mary Todd has a high bud count and is a very hardy daylily. It multiplies quickly and is easy to separate. We sell it for $5.00.


Hemerocallis Nicholas Leigh

This pretty brick red self daylily is bout 2 1/2' tall, has a large bloom, about 5.5" and is a midseason bloomer. Ours just began to bloom. And it looks so good beside the smaller daylily called Mosel. Our Nicholas Leigh daylily sells for $5.00 per fan.

Just a side note ... sometimes we purchase daylilies for their foliage, their colorful bloom, the bloom time, the size or uniqueness of the bloom or sometimes we buy the daylily for its name, or part of its name. Our grandson and our nephew's name is Nicholas, so wonder why we purchased this one? :)


Hope you have enjoyed this showing of daylilies. Does anyone have a favorite daylily? Please let us know.

Good night

Hello all. I found so many new bloomers this morning ... oh my goodness. Hope your daylilies are showing beautiful color.

Have been on the tractor today, bush hogging the pasture. That's why I am so late with the posting. What great timing, with the pasture clipping, I mean ... it is currently raining. And oh we really needed the rain. Can't wait to see the beautiful blooms in the morning. :)

Today another one of my favorite daylilies was blooming. I like the rich color.

Hemerocallis Sebastian

Yes, daylily Sebastian is about 2' tall, is a rebloomer and bloom size is considered "large" ... about 5" in diameter or larger. It is an early midseason bloomer.


Hemerocallis Jan's Twister

This great daylily specimen plant is about 2 1/2 feet tall. It is termed a "crispate", meaning that it is an unusual form. Crispate refers to the tepals of the daylily being smooth with a crease in the center. Jan's Twister is also referred to as a "Spider". The term spider means that the petal length is four times the petal's width or more. The bloom is a peach self with a green throat. Very striking in the yard/garden. We sell this daylily for $11.00.

Hemerocallis El Desperado

This beauty is almost 3' tall and has a 5" bloom. It is mustard yellow with purple eyezone and green throat. It has a high bud count, with several blooms on the same scape opening at the same time. It also stands out and is a real eye catcher. This daylily sells for $11.00
