Notes

'Baltimore Oriole' daylily (Hemerocallis 'Baltimore Oriole') is a perennial for borders and pollinator gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to average soil. Its fragrant, orangish red blooms attract butterflies, hummingbirds, bees, and birds. Rabbits tend to pass it by. It also tolerates drought and salt, so it suits tough spots in the garden.

Pairs well with Arizona Sun blanket flower, Blonde Ambition blue grama, and Incrediball Storm Proof smooth hydrangea.
