Hemerocallis 'Frankly Scarlet'
Frankly Scarlet Daylily
Description
These summer-blooming perennials form clumps with large, grass-like leaves. Its showy red flowers, resembling lilies, are borne in clusters on stems held well above the foliage. 4" blooms build color intensity throughout the day. Blue green, dense, 24" tall foliage makes an excellent landscape statement. Scarlet blooms shine in the heat. Daylilies prefer full sun and regular watering. Provide well draining, rich soil. Cut spent flowers to encourage reblooming.

Water Saving Tip:
In shrub areas, convert from spray sprinklers to bubbler or drip systems that apply water directly to roots.
Occasionally check the soil's moisture level around shrubs before and after watering to determine if watering times are appropriate.
