These days, with modern varieties, you can enjoy daylilies not just in summer, but again in early fall. So don’t think you are going bananas when you see the beautiful 4-inch blooms of the Going Bananas Daylily re-appearing in September. Of course you will still enjoy a major blooming in mid-summer, with a dozen buds on every stem, rising about 18 inches above the ground. This compact variety flowers a beautiful warm yellow, the color of firm bananas, and the broad petals spread out in a beautiful flattened trumpet. Perfect for edging beds filled with other perennials – think blues and purples – or mass-planted in shrub borders. Great in planters too, in warmer zones. Daylily season is always a highpoint of the garden year, so go crazy and enjoy it twice.
Full sun is exactly what the Going Bananas Daylily needs for maximum blooming, and plant it in rich, well-drained soil of any kind. Drought and heat resistant, and hardy in cold zones too. Plants in containers from zone 6 will overwinter outdoors. Generally free of pests and diseases, and ignored by deer. Loved by butterflies and hummingbirds. Remove old flower stems and old foliage, but leave any new green leaves that sprout in summer or fall.
