Comments:  Hemerocallis 'Lemon Electra' or Daylily is an early morning opener with huge delightfully fragrant blooms.  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.
