A Glorious Sweep Of Colour From Cool Lavender To Fiery Ruby! Five Distinctly Different Daylilies To Fill Your Summer Garden.

Few hardy perennials produce flowers with the exuberance of daylilies. Their bold, trumpet-shaped blooms rise clearly above arching green foliage, bringing height and an unmistakable summer glow to borders and large patio containers.

Rather than offering five subtly different versions of the same shade, it moves through almost the complete daylily spectrum. Clear lemon yellow and rich ruby red sit alongside peachy apricot, rose pink and an unusual lavender bloom marked with a violet eye.

Plant all five together for a vibrant ribbon of colour or repeat them through a sunny border. Hardy and straightforward to grow, they will return each year to develop into increasingly rewarding clumps.

Supplied as a set of five bare root plants, ready to plant, including one each of the following varieties:

  • Hemerocallis 'Happy Returns' - Bright lemon yellow. One of the clearest, happiest yellows and an excellent repeat bloomer.
  • Hemerocallis 'Booby™ Ruby' - Deep ruby red. Rich, saturated colour that contrasts beautifully with the yellows and pinks.
  • Hemerocallis 'Fruity Kiss' - Peachy apricot with warm tones. Introduces orange/apricot shades that none of the others provide.
  • Hemerocallis 'Prairie Blue Eyes' - Lavender with a violet eye. Unusual cool-toned colouring that stands apart from the warmer varieties.
  • Hemerocallis 'Rosy Returns' - Rose pink. Adds a clean pink tone to complete the spectrum.
Top Tips

Planting Depth: Crown 3cm below soil level, Planting Spacing: 45-60cm apart.

Remove faded flowers to encourage more blooms.

Care Information
  • Daylilies thrive in most well-drained, fertile soils, as long as they're no in shade and borders that dry out in summer.
  • When planting container-grown daylilies, improve the soil by digging in well-rotted organic matter, such as garden compost or manure.
  • As general maintenance, just apply a spring mulch around existing plants to help conserve moisture, and water during prolonged dry spells.
  • To get the best from your bare root plants, pot them up, rather than planting directly in the ground, using a peat-free multi-purpose compost and water in well. Once they are growing strongly you can plant them out.
  • However, if time and space are against you, then they can be planted directly where they are to flower, making sure that the roots are well spread and the crown is not buried. Water in well.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
