Hemerocallis 'Siloam June Bug'

Siloam June Bug Daylily

Hemerocallis ‘Siloam June Bug’ is a compact, early-blooming perennial valued for its bright golden-yellow flowers and tidy habit. Narrow, arching green leaves form a neat clump in spring, followed by abundant, small, clear yellow blooms in early to mid-summer, with each flower lasting a day but produced continuously over several weeks. Its small size and cheerful color make it ideal for edging and mass plantings.
