roots & rhizomes DaYlilies


HemerOCallis – beauTiful fOr a DaY! At Roots & Rhizomes we love perennials,


but if we have a passion for one it would be the daylily. The color range and substance of their glistening blooms is amazing, and even though each flower lasts only a day, the bud count is so enormous they bloom continuously for many weeks. For all their beauty, daylilies are tough, long-lived, dis- ease and insect resistant, cold hardy and tolerant of neglect.


NOTe: Daylilies are hardy in Zones 3 to 9 under normal growing conditions unless
