Hemerocallis ‘Hyperion’ Single Fan bare root plant

Hemerocallis ‘Hyperion’ is a true classic among daylilies, admired for its elegant simplicity, captivating fragrance, and enduring popularity. This heirloom variety has been gracing gardens for nearly a century and continues to be a favorite among gardeners. Here’s what makes it special:

Key Features:

• Color: Clear, vibrant canary yellow with a delicate green throat. The luminous yellow blooms bring a cheerful and sunny feel to any garden.
• Flower Form: Small to medium-sized, 4-inch, trumpet-shaped flowers with gently recurving petals. The blooms are held on tall, slender scapes (flower stalks) that rise above the foliage, creating an elegant and airy display.
• Bloom Time: Midseason bloomer, typically flowering in June and July. While not a rebloomer, it offers a long bloom period for a daylily, with each flower lasting at least 16 hours.
• Height: Reaches a height of about 36-40 inches, making it a good choice for the middle or back of the border.
• Foliage: Attractive, arching, grass-like foliage that forms a neat clump, providing a nice backdrop for the flowers.
• Fragrance: It has a strong, sweet, lemony fragrance that is particularly noticeable in the evening, adding to its allure.
• Hardiness: Hardy in USDA zones 3-9, so it can tolerate a wide range of temperatures.

Why Gardeners Love It:

• Classic Beauty: The simple elegance of the yellow flowers and their delightful fragrance have captivated gardeners for generations.
• Reliable Performance: It’s a vigorous grower and a reliable bloomer, even in less-than-ideal conditions.
