Daylily Little Rusty

Seedling

15″ ht. flowers 2.5″ – zone 3
Rusty orange with a gold throat.  This one can vary on the same plant.  Some are solid orange and some are slightly bicolored with gold hues on the lower petals.
This little beauty came in a group of seedlings that were billed as “Sisters of Stella”. It is not a registered variety. This daylily was a selection from the breeding program for the famous Stella De Oro, which was not registered. This is a beautiful little mini that would be at home in any collection. It has many of the same attributes as its sister “Stella”. It is a non-stop bloomer, increases rapidly and is 100% reliable.
Early midseason, extended bloom, re-bloomer
dormant, diploid

Daylily Purple De Oro

By Degroot – 2000

Daylily Purple De Oro

Daylily Purple De Oro

The ‘de Oro’ in the name makes you think this will be a good performer and it does bloom throughout the season.  A dormant diploid; it will grow as quickly as your Stellas. With blooms only 3” it could be called a miniature daylily, but the mass of plum purple with yellow throats does not seem little. There is some streaking in the veins and the edges are slightly ruffled. A compact plant at only 20”…enjoy.

Daylily Pixie Parasol

By Hudson – 1955

Daylily Pixie Parasol

Pixie Parasol’ is a dainty miniature that sports masses of 2 ½” apricot flowers on semi-evergreen foliage. She re-blooms multiple times, and is ever so cute with its little green throat, and foliage that is only to 14” high. This “orange sherbet” color looks good enough to eat and you can. The substance is heavy so they are nice on the edge of a salad. This also helps them last into the night and sometimes even a second day.

Daylily Pardon Me

By Apps 1982

Daylily Pardon Me

Daylily Pardon Me

18” tall with a 3″ flower.
A true red with a gold throat.
This miniature blooms mid-season and then continues to re-bloom.
It is also nocturnal. This plant looks great in front of a larger daylily that has an eye-zone of the same color. I have it in front of Cherry Candy.
You could give a piece of this one to a garden pal when apologies are necessary.  Dormant, diploid

Daylily Little Red Unknown

By Petit – 2006

Height 15” with 3 ½ inch blooms; zone 4.

This miniature daylily is small in stature as well as having lots of cute small flowers. The substance of the blooms is very heavy. These won’t melt after a rain and they don’t get spots on them from water either. They just hold and hold their rich velvety color.

Rich true red blooms are slightly fragrant.

Semi-evergreen; tetraploid.

Note:  This plant was originally given to us as Little Red Corvette or possibly Red Corvette and thanks to an astute customer we see that those cultivars should be larger with larger flowers.  For now we are selling it as an unknown.  I have contacted the original source to see if we can pin down the identity.

Daylily Licorice Bit

By Roberson – 1989

This 18” miniature daylily has larger flowers for a miniature at about 3”.  They are very dark red/purple with a glowing golden eye and a slightly ruffled edge. This color is hard to capture in a photograph and I would say that it is a little darker than shown here. It is an evergreen diploid so it does grow a little slower than the dormant daylilies here in the north but has survived many years and the foliage looks fine here in Wisconsin.
