Notes
'Tropical Delight' daylily (Hemerocallis 'Tropical Delight') 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. The fragrant orange-pink flowers have a green throat and open in spring and again in summer. They draw butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees. It is not a favorite of rabbits, though hungry rabbits will eat almost anything.
Pairs well with Pale purple coneflower, Blonde Ambition blue grama, and Musk mallow.
