Know before you buy
Unlike traditional daylilies that bloom once for a short period, this variety is bred to produce multiple flushes of flowers from early summer through fall. You can expect a consistent display of color rather than a single, brief show.
For the best results, space your daylilies approximately 20 inches apart. This allows enough room for the mounding foliage to fill in while ensuring proper air circulation.
Yes, 'Apricot Sparkles' is generally avoided by deer and is highly resistant to common garden pests. While no plant is 100% immune, this variety is a reliable choice for gardens where wildlife pressure is a concern.
These daylilies perform best in full sun to partial shade. While they can tolerate some shade, providing at least six hours of direct sunlight will encourage the most prolific blooming.
No, daylilies are toxic to cats and dogs if ingested. It is best to plant them in areas of your garden that are inaccessible to your pets.
Since these are shipped bare-root for fall planting, you should plant them as soon as possible after they arrive. Ensure the crown is buried about one inch below the soil surface and water them thoroughly to help them establish before the ground freezes.
