Hemerocallis (Day Lily) Double Pardon Me #1

Common Name: Daylily

A twist on the old classic! ‘Double Pardon Me’ has the same color as its namesake but with dramatically more tepals. Instead of the standard amount of 6 tepals, according to the breeder, these flowers can have as many as 18 tepals. The unique look of this daylily will get you talking-it certainly did for us.

Daylilies can survive many harsh conditions that other plants cannot including: polluted city environments, slopes, poor and dry soils, near pavement that is salted in winter, and under Black Walnut trees (not affected by juglone).
