Perennials Summer blooms |
Daylilies are flowering queens for one day. Each bloom lasts a day but there is no need to worry – every stem bears more blooms and as the plants grow older they have numerous stems each. This low-maintenance perennial is a miracle for those who have limited time to spend looking after their gardens because apart from occasional watering on hot and dry summer day it needs ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. And still it can leave us gazing at their beautiful, lily-like blooms of every possible colour you can think of (except for blue and black).
On And On is a repeat blooming daylily variety, bred and introduced by Fran Harding from the USA in 1994. It bears large, 11-12 cm across, broadly bell-shaped, lightly fragrant flowers in a charming shade of pastel salmon pink with delicate golden hues. They bloom from around mid-June atop 45 cm tall stems, and well-established plants in good conditions re-bloom in August, and in some cases they even bloom non-stop from June through August. The strap-like leaves are wide, medium green, semi-evergreen.
Fran Harding (Francis Privette Harding, 1926-2019) from North Carolina, USA, graduated as a chemist and had many interests, all of which she approached methodically and with real enthusiasm and care. She was an excellent athlete, especially in baseball, and played tennis into her seventies so well that many younger players couldn't keep up with her. She could sing – she had an amazing soprano voice and would sing opera and folk all day through. However, most of her life happened in the garden, and when she brought a microscope and placed it onto the kitchen counter one day, it was clear that everything else would take a back seat. She became a daylily breeder. During her lifetime, she registered 67 recognized cultivars. Among collectors, she is known for her two large series, Forestlake and Wilderness, recognized especially the large-flowered varieties with conspicuously ruffled margins and vibrant colors.
The leaves are deep green, strong and healthy. They appear early in the spring and persist until winter unlike spring bulbs whose leaves wither away after flowering. Apart from occasional slug attack there are no pests or diseases they would suffer from. Put your day lilies on a sunny spot and fertilize it for better flowering every spring, if you want to. It tolerates all types of soil, preferably it likes moist soil. Very hardy to min. -34 °C (USDA zone 4).
