Tetraploid Hybrid Daylilies are a group of herbaceous perennials with grass-like deep green foliage. They can be early or late blooming and grow clusters of various colored ruffled double flowers that bloom either in late spring or late summer and can rebloom if deadheaded. Flowers attract butterflies and pollinators. Best bloom in full sun and rich deep well-drained soils. Drought and salt tolerant once established.
