Hemerocallis 'Rosy Returns'

Rosy Returns Daylily

Hemerocallis ‘Rosy Returns’ is a compact, reblooming perennial valued for its rosy-pink blooms and long flowering season. Narrow, arching green leaves form a tidy clump in spring, followed by abundant, small to medium rosy-pink flowers with a warm yellow throat beginning in early summer and continuing intermittently into fall, with each bloom lasting a day but produced continuously over time. Its repeat bloom and manageable size make it a dependable choice for borders and containers.
