Daylily (Hemerocallis x 'Pardon Me') - Description
Bright magenta red flowers define this little gem of a plant. Nice and compact size and form (about 18" high and wide) make this an easy choice to use in your garden. 2.5" wide flowers are highlighted with bright green throats as they rise on scapes (leafless stems) barely above the slender foliage. This variety does go dormant in the winter giving the appearance of the plant totally disappearing. But don't fear as H. 'Pardon Me' will come back stronger than ever in the early springtime.
Daylily (Hemerocallis x 'Pardon Me') - Blooming
The funnel-shaped blooms last for only one day, but new blooms continue for weeks or months from late spring through the summer. The flowers bloom on tall stalks, starting at the top. When used as cut flowers, a single bloom will fade after one day, but the other buds will flower on subsequent days.

Daylilies are hardy, long-lived perennials. They like full or partial sun, and will turn to face it.

Beware slugs and snails which will leave the foliage unsightly. Aphids, thrips, spider mites, and hemerocallis gall midge can also cause problems. In areas with high humidity and temperatures above 90°F (32°C), crown rot becomes a major issue. After a cold winter of freezing and thawing, bacterial leaf and stem rot can occur in the spring.
