Quick Overview:

There’s certainly nothing “cheesy” about this daylily, though the light yellow flower color may remind you of Monterrey Jack cheese.  A well-defined, raspberry red eye and lighter midribs really stand out on the glimmering diamond dusted flowers.  Their broad, rounded petals open wide and flat to 5 1/2″ across, making them appear even larger.  Each exquisitely ruffled flower is of perfect form and they are displayed nicely on the candelabra-branched scapes. This daylily is a strong grower that blooms early in the daylily season.  Winter dormant foliage, tetraploid.

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.
