Introducing the most beautiful varieties of daylilies
Simple orange lily flowers with long legs, surrounded by narrow leaves, are often found along fences in areas or in flower beds near schools, hospitals and other institutions. However, unpretentious daylilies today may look somewhat different. Thanks to the work of breeders, varieties with the most varied coloring and shape of inflorescences have been bred, and the hybrids are striking in their size. We suggest that you familiarize yourself with some of them.
Solid varieties with a slight shade
Daylilies with delicate monochromatic inflorescences and a slight hint of a lighter or darker shade continue to delight flower growers. Among them:
- Arctic Snow... Large flowers of a light lemon color have a brighter core, the center of which has a greenish tint.
- Double dream... Semi-double cream-colored inflorescences consist of two tiers of petals. Inside the flower, they are darker and slightly corrugated.
- Strawberry candy... Salmon inflorescences are slightly darker in the center. A dark shade can be seen along the wavy edge of the petals.
- Chicago Sunrise... Pure yellow petals have one, lighter stripe in the center.
Varieties with rich colors
For true connoisseurs of original flowers, varieties have been bred with a unique color, rarely found among daylilies. It is worth noting such hybrids:
- Bella lugosi... Intensely purple inflorescences have petals slightly wavy at the edges, the beginning of which is slightly darker. In the very depths of the flower, a yellow core is visible.
- Grape corduroy. The flowers are dark crimson, the petals are slightly curled down. The yellow core is slightly stripes on the petals.
- David Kirchow. Dark pink inflorescences with a yellow core, turning into the center of the petals, which have a corrugated edge.
- Christopher Columbus. Saturated burgundy flowers.
- Knight amber. Purple inflorescences with a bright yellow center. The petals are surrounded by a white border.
Varieties with a pronounced two-tone color
Among daylilies, which have two contrasting colors in their color, the following types look most vividly:
- Bonanza... The petals of the flowers are deep yellow, and in the center are painted dirty red.
- Bush candy... The core of the flower is dark pink, and the petals themselves are cream.
- Lynn Hall... Creamy inflorescences with a small light pink heart.
- Little cadet... Yellow flowers with pink strokes inside.
- Otom red... A characteristic feature of the variety is a yellow stripe in the center of a dark red petal, which smoothly turns into a yellow core.
- El desperado... The outer petals are pure white, while the inner ones have a purple outline and core.
