Comments: Hemerocallis flava or Yellow Daylily or Lemon daylily or
Custard Lily is an early bloomer. It is an easy to
grow perennial. Its bright color really brightens up the landscape and its
fragrance is so delightful. 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.
