Quick Overview:

One look at the soothing colors of ‘Always Afternoon’ and you can’t help but feel a bit more calm. The medium mauve blooms with a purple eyezone around a yellow throat are delicious to see, but the ruffled edges and excellent blue green foliage make this beauty one to remember! A popular and award-winning variety. Winner of both the 1993 Don C Stevens award for outstanding eyed or banded daylily and the 1997 Stout Medal – daylily’s highest award.

Description

Easily grown in average, medium, well-drained soil in full sun to part shade. Daylilies perform well in a wide range of well-drained soils, but prefer a deep, fertile loam. Deadhead spent flowers daily for neatness and remove scapes when flowers have completed bloom. Tolerant of summer heat and humidity, but appreciate deep watering in dry spells to keep foliage attractive. Daylilies should be divided to maintain vigor when the clumps become overcrowded.  (Courtesy of Missouri Botanical Gardens Plant Finder)
