Comments: Hemerocallis 'Bela Lugosi' or Daylily is free-blooming and compliments
well with other perennials. This perennial plant has a mound forming habit and is
heat, humidity, drought and cold tolerant. It is a low maintenance
plant and is easy to grow. 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.
