Blooming in midsummer, the flowers are edible.  Hemerocallis are members of the lily family and the blossoms usually last one day, but these clump forming plants, with their gracefully arching strap-shaped leaves, produce enormous numbers of flowers throughout the summer.

Divide in early spring.  In areas that receive less than 6 hours of sun during the day, your daylilies will probably produce fewer and smaller blooms, and the foliage may not be as robust.  ‘Fairy Tale Pink’ can be used for stand alone plantings, edging, in borders or in mixed containers and tubs.  Planted together in large numbers, they quickly crowd out weeds and make a carefree and colorful ground cover.It also makes a beautiful floral arrangement. Use this ‘Fairy Tale Pink’ to create large swathes of lovely color in the summer landscape! * Graceful, arching leaves * Heavily ruffled
