Notes

'Golliwog' daylily (Hemerocallis 'Golliwog') 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. The peachy-yellow flowers have a yellow-green throat and a sweet scent, and butterflies, hummingbirds, bees, and birds visit the blooms. Rabbits rarely make it their first choice. It also handles drought and salt.

Pairs well with Big Daddy hosta, Phantom panicle hydrangea, Foxtail barley, and Little Beauty tulip.
