Hemerocallis 'Blazing Glory'
RAINBOW RHYTHM® Collection
Common Name: Daylily
'Blazing Glory' has 6" golden yellow flowers with a bold burgundy red eye and matching picotee edge. Where traditional cultivars have picotee edges that bleed or fade, 'Blazing Glory' remains consistent with a wide margin that extends the length of the petal. Compared to 'King of the Ages' the flowers are ½" smaller, more golden yellow in color, and have a more pronounced eye and picotee edge; the plant is also about 6" shorter. Well-branched scapes and high bud count will ensure a blazing display of color.
Daylilies can survive many harsh conditions that other plants cannot including: polluted city environments, slopes, poor and dry soils, near pavement that is salted in winter, and under Black Walnut trees (not affected by juglone).
Characteristics (Compared to Other Daylilies)
- Midseason Bloomer, blooming in July.
- Rebloomer, producing a second set of flowers.
- Fragrant flowers.
- Semi-Evergreen foliage.
- Tetraploid with 44 chromosomes, twice as many as Diploids. Tetraploids tend to be bigger, stronger plants.
