Reblooming Daylilies - Hemerocallis

Ranked #4,638 in Home & Garden, #55,852 overall

Everblooming Daylilies

They might be called perfect perennials, but dayliles do seem to have one big downside; their short-flowering season. Unless, that is, they are reblooming daylilies. These relatively new hybrids, which began appearing in the 1990s, will follow a first flush of flowers with many more sometimes all summer long right up to the first frost.

Sometimes, they are called everblooming daylilies, recurrrent blooming daylilies, continuous blooming daylilies, repeat-flowering daylilies, or even - mistakenly - extended daylilies, which actually should refer only to daylilies whose flowers open for at least 16 hours a day.

    I am a daylily fan and have about 125 of them. I just purchased Strawberry Field Forever yesterday and it's a rebloomer. Some of the rebloomers won't put on a second flush of flower here in Michigan. Our season is just too short.

    Interesting lens! I too love dayliles and have four different varieties in my perennial garden --- I will be keeping my eye out for these re-bloomers this spring. :)
