The Stella de Oro Daylily is the world’s most popular daylily, and no wonder. It’s golden-yellow trumpets glow across the garden for month after month, and it’s compact growth makes it ideal for edging and groundcover. It stand just a foot or so tall, shining out like a golden dome, and bringing blooms to your garden from June to the fall. It grows in all those places where nothing seems to grow, from hot, dry areas on poor soil to beneath walnut trees and along paths you must salt in winter.
Grow your Stella de Oro Daylily in full sun, although a little afternoon shade, especially in hot zones, can be beneficial if the soil is dry. It grows everywhere, from zone 3 to zone 9, and it takes drought, humidity and heat. Plant in any well-drained soil, including urban soils; poor, infertile soils; heavy clay; salt-damaged soil; and the toxic ground beneath black walnut trees. Pests, diseases and rabbits leave it alone, and an annual cutting down in late fall, and the optional removal of flower stems when they are done, is all the care it needs.
