Notes

'Perceptive' daylily (Hemerocallis 'Perceptive') is a perennial for borders, pollinator gardens, and containers. 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 soil of most types. Butterflies, hummingbirds, bees, and birds visit the fragrant flowers. Rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. It also tolerates drought and salt, so it needs little care.

Pairs well with Caradonna sage, Moonshine yarrow, and Lady's mantle.
