Notes

'Purple Passage' daylily (Hemerocallis 'Purple Passage') is a perennial for borders, containers, pollinator gardens, and low maintenance beds. 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. Rabbits tend to nibble other plants first. Butterflies, hummingbirds, bees, and birds visit the fragrant blooms. It also handles drought and salt.
