Description This daylily cultivar was introduced by Sikes in 1980. It has a very pleasing lavender flower color.

Morphology:
This is an herbaceous groundcover that grows to 3’ in height and width. It bears large flowers (more than 4.5” in diameter) on a diurnal basis (open during the day, closed at night).

Flowers first appear mid-season, and have no fragrance.

Adaptation:
Daylillies do best with full sun. Soil type is not all that important for growth.

Pests:
None reported.
