Daylily Rosy Returns
The Preferred Daylily
Daylily Rosy Returns has the flower power of the fabulous
Stella DOro -- the most popular daylily ever. Daylily Rosy Returns
features 4-inch-plus blooms in vibrant rose, a deeper rose eye zone,
and yellow throat. Slender in foliage and short at 16 inches, it
quickly forms a neat clump. Daylily Rosy Returns makes an excellent
container plant or looks stunning when several are planted together
in a border or along a walkway. Use it in the foreground of the
perennial border with taller perennials in the background,
Blue-Flowering Perovski (Russian Sage) works particularly well as a
background companion.
Adaptable to most any climate in the Continental U.S., Rosy Returns
begins to bloom in mid-May and continues until hard frost in zone 6.
The blooms are lightly fragrant and will be enjoyed by everyone who
passes. They are also edible and have been served in salads in Japan
and China for years, although some may say that they are just too
pretty to eat. Daylily Rosy Returns - the Darlings of the Garden
Hemerocallis or Daylilies are one of the best performers in the
perennial garden - thought by some to be the perfect perennial.
Hardy, carefree and profuse bloomers no garden should be without
these darlings. Native to Asia, Japan, Siberia, Korea and Eurasia,
hybridizers in the United States and England have made vast
improvements in daylilies. Originally available only in shades of
yellow and orange, today there are a rainbow of daylilies to choose
from in every color but true blue.
Most daylilies bloom only once a season, but there are a handful
that are repeat blooming, allowing you to enjoy their beautiful
blooms from late spring well into autumn. Carroll Gardens is pleased
to feature Rosy Returns, the first rosy pink ever-blooming daylily.
One of the newest creations of master breeder Dr. Darrel Apps, who
is also know for other popular daylilies including
Happy Returns and
Big Time Happy.
