Big Yellow Bird Daylily

When Roy Khelm from Song Sparrow Daylilies decided to go into retirement, we didn't want his legendary daylilies to be lost forever. So, in 2020 our crew traveled to Avalon, Wisconsin and dug all these beautful plants and brought them home and planted them in our fertile, Ozark soil. These truly remarkable blooms have been beloved by many and are now available once again! Low maintenance. Easy To Grow. Daylilies are some of the easiest perennials to grow and are a good choice for any gardener, from the beginner to the professional. These are tough, adaptable plants that will grow in any soil, from normal to slightly wet to dry. Older varieties are able to bloom if planted in partial shade, but most of the newer introductions need full sun for best performance. Likewise, older varieties tend to spread more rapidly than the newer hybrids. All varieties can be divided every 3-4 years by digging up the entire clump and dividing it into smaller pieces with a minimum of 3 eyes each. This can be done in either spring or fall. Plants should be deadheaded for cosmetic purposes, but in most cases this will not extend the bloom time.
