Notes

'Holly Dancer' daylily (Hemerocallis 'Holly Dancer') is a perennial for borders, containers, 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 moist, loamy, clay, or chalky soil. Butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees visit the fragrant flowers, and it tolerates drought and salt. It sits low on the menu for rabbits. Plant it where you can enjoy the scent.

Pairs well with American Gold Rush black-eyed Susan, Sedge, and Charles Joly lilac.
