Chicago Apache Daylily

Hemerocallis 'Chicago Apache'

Plant Details:

Plant Type: Perennial
Plant Family: Liliaceae
Plant Description: This daylily has stunning red color, a bright yellow center and ruffled edges that bloom on top of slim, grass-like foliage. This will be an easy-care plant that offers warm color June through August. It is also adaptable to many growing conditions, but typically does not bloom as well in full shade.

Maintenance:

Maintenance Type: Perennial - Herbaceous
Plant Care: Perennial - Herbaceous (soft-stemmed plants that die back in winter and regrow in spring): Remove spent blooms to promote rebloom later. Some plants tend to flop over after the first bloom and attempt to regrow from the base; in these cases, the old stems can be cut away in summer. As plants become dormant in the fall, remove dead leaves and stems.
