Comments: Hemerocallis Custard Candy or Daylily is a beautiful dwarf variety that
blooms early mid-season and reblooms in Fall. I love its
beautiful bloom. To bring out the best colors in the daylily,
light colors have to be in full sun (at least 6 hours) while the dark
colors have to be in part shade during the hottest part of the day so
their colors would not fade.
USDA Hardiness Zones : 3-9 |
