Hemerocallis lilioasphodelus, Lemon or Yellow Daylily is one of only 19 species of Hemerocallis currently recognised by the World Checklist of Selected Plant Families. In a world where there are over 80,000 cultivars of Daylily, it is refreshing to be able to appreciate the simple charms of this uncomplicated species. A tall-growing Daylily with long scapes and an elegant yellow flower, Hemerocallis lilioasphodelus is the epitome of beauty in the summer garden. The blooms are fragrant and the foliage is lush and luxuriant.
As well as clumping by its underground stolons, Hemerocallis lilioasphodelus is self-fertile and will set seeds, enabling it to naturalise large areas relatively quickly. It is extremely hardy and like all Daylilies it does well in sun or dappled shade and appreciates plenty of watering although very tolerant of drought.
A delightful species.
