Hemerocallis 'Fairy Tale Pink'

Fairy Tale Pink Daylily

Hemerocallis ‘Fairy Tale Pink’ is an elegant perennial valued for its soft pastel blooms and refined form. Arching, strap-like green leaves form a dense clump in spring, followed by abundant, ruffled flowers in mid-summer in soft pink tones with a warm yellow throat, with each bloom lasting a day but produced over several weeks. Its gentle color and classic daylily form make it a versatile addition to sunny borders.
