Hemerocallis 'Siloam Nugget'
Siloam Nugget Daylily
Hemerocallis ‘Siloam Nugget’ is a compact perennial valued for its rich golden-yellow blooms and neat, tidy habit. Narrow, arching green leaves form a low clump in spring, followed by abundant, small to medium golden-yellow flowers in early to mid-summer, with each bloom lasting a day but produced continuously over several weeks. Its compact size and bright color make it an excellent choice for edging and smaller garden spaces.
