Daylily Black Eyed Stella

This miniature cultivar has gold flowers with a deep orange-red eye-zone and grows to 15 inches tall with a 3 ¼ inch bloom. It has a nocturnal extended blooming habit and reliable re-bloom; it opens in the afternoon and closes the following morning or early afternoon, so it would be great in your moon garden. This daylily was a winner in the landscape category for All-American Daylily In 1994. Created from Stella De Oro, which is the most successful daylily ever, Black Eyed Stella was chosen from over 3000 seedlings. It does very well in extreme cold, but equally well in hot humid areas.
