Know before you buy
Shipping as a bare root means the plant arrives without soil around its roots, which is a standard, healthy way to transport dormant perennials. Once you receive it, you should plant it promptly to allow the roots to establish in your garden soil.
This variety is famous for its extended display. You can expect a flush of golden-yellow flowers in late spring, followed by consistent, repeat blooming throughout the summer and often into the fall, provided it receives adequate sun and water.
Yes, the Stella D'Oro is widely considered resistant to both deer and rabbits. While no plant is 100% immune to hungry wildlife, these daylilies are rarely targeted compared to more vulnerable garden favorites.
Absolutely. Because of their compact 10-12 inch size, they are excellent for containers. Just ensure your pot has good drainage and use a high-quality potting mix to keep them happy.
For the best flower production, plant your daylilies in a spot that receives full sun to partial sun. While they are adaptable, more sunlight generally results in more vibrant and frequent reblooming.
For a dense, filled-in look, we recommend planting one root per square foot. This spacing allows the foliage to grow together to create a cohesive, low-maintenance border or pathway edge.
