Hemerocallis Fairytale Pink
Fairytale Pink Daylilly
Hemerocallis ‘Fairytale Pink’ is a soft-toned perennial valued for its delicate pastel blooms and graceful garden presence. Arching, strap-like green leaves form a dense clump in spring, followed by abundant, medium-sized soft pink flowers with a warm yellow throat in mid-summer, with each bloom lasting a day but produced over several weeks. Its gentle color blends beautifully into mixed borders and cottage-style plantings.
