Notes

'Irish Envy' daylily (Hemerocallis 'Irish Envy') 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 blooms. Rabbits tend to pass it by. It is also drought tolerant and fragrant, so it suits a low care garden.

Pairs well with Magnus coneflower, Inca Gold yarrow, and Hardy geranium.
