Notes

'Nuthatch' daylily (Hemerocallis 'Nuthatch') 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 brown blend blooms are fragrant and draw butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees. Rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. It also tolerates drought and salt.

Pairs well with Incrediball Storm Proof smooth hydrangea, Spotted dead nettle, and Little Beauty tulip.
